Fattal Hotel Group Makes US Debut With Manhattan Acquisition

The Blakely Hotel, a 117-room property on West 55th Street, has been acquired by the Fattal Hotel Group, marking the European hospitality giant's first foray into the United States. The deal, finalized July 7, initiates a shift for the operator as it transitions from a regional powerhouse to a global player.

The pre-war structure, positioned between Sixth and Seventh Avenue, offers guestrooms and suites that exceed the typical Manhattan size average. While the company maintains an extensive portfolio of 329 hotels across 22 countries, this Midtown investment serves as a deliberate beachhead in one of the world's most competitive hospitality markets.

Following the acquisition, the property will undergo a comprehensive renovation. The hotel is currently closed to the public and is slated to reopen in mid-2027 under one of the group's established brands. Founder David Fattal described the move as a landmark moment for the company, which grew from a local Israeli operation into a major European entity. CEO Ronen Nissenbaum noted that the group intends to leverage the Midtown location to introduce its specific service standards to American travelers, aiming to capitalize on the property's proximity to Central Park and Times Square.
