First, I would like to say THANK YOU to all of our followers out there who have been a part of our online communities over these past months. We have grown into such an amazing community and we consider all of you close friends of The Roosevelt Hotel.

We couldn’t be more gracious to have you be a part of who we are.

With that said, I want to introduce you all to www.RooseveltConnect.com. Over the past year or so, our lives have been changed by the growth of social media. If you were to ask me one year ago today, how the developments of social networks like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube , etc would affect our business, I could never have imagined the success that we have had being a part of these communities.

From using these networks as a customer service tool, to the offering of exclusive deals/promotions at the hotel or even just to keep our followers in tune with what’s happening in our home city of NYC, our online communities have given us the ability to connect with you. Our guests. Our colleagues. Our friends. Nothing can replace the relationships that we have developed over this past year.

*sniff*

So, what is www.RooseveltConnect.com ? It’s simply a site that allows you to connect to all the areas of the hotel and all its outlets. Think of it as a “home” for all our social media connections.

Did you know that our rooftop lounge has its own Twitter account?  How about our street level bar? Oh, and the hotel has a fancy new iPhone app, did you know that? I know, I know. It’s a lot to keep up with. That’s what this site is for. To keep you connected to all of our communities. Each one of these networks has its own unique personality and shares its own exclusive promotions so it’s worth being a part of (or at least I think so).

Click and connect with us. We look forward to continuing our relationship with you and building many more in the future.
