Elite Overview
From the editors of Elite Meetings
Rate this property
The Omni Berkshire Place enjoys a Midtown Manhattan location steps away from the must-see attractions of Rockefeller Center, Fifth Avenue shopping, some of the city's best dining, and the bright lights of Broadway. More than a decade of four-diamond status reflects the Omni Bershire Place's attention to style and service.

A gracious host since 1926, Omni Berkshire Place features eight meeting rooms and 396 recently renovated guest rooms and suites decorated in a palette of soothing earth tones. Each offers everything needed for business and relaxation, from Wi-Fi access to sound-proof windows for a quiet rest in the city that never sleeps. On-site dinners might take guests to the all-new Fireside restaurant, which features innovative “cocktail cuisine.” For a night on the town, the concierge staff routinely scores hard-to-get dinner reservations and seats to blockbuster Broadway shows.

A small venue...largest room can only hold about 85, and even then it's tight. Overall great experience though.

Omni Hotels Unveils Zero Attrition for Meetings Booked and Consumed in 2009
Posted April 3, 2009
IRVING, TX (February 6, 2009) " Effective today, Omni Hotels will offer its new ZERO Attrition program to meeting professionals and event clientele across the brand. This value-driven program waives the attrition fees for new contracts booked and consumed in 2009. The luxury hotel brand developed the ZERO Attrition program in response to the growing need in the meetings marketplace for innovative solutions which can effectively address todays economic conditions.

In todays economic climate, many organizations are uncertain of their meeting attendance, driving Omni to develop a program with more flexibility than the industry norm. This is intended to help customers overcome concerns regarding their group block commitment, said Tom Faust, vice president of sales for Omni Hotels. By offering this alternative and working closely with our clients on establishing an appropriate and achievable room block, we alleviate their concerns about attrition fees. We believe this is will be a practical and welcome solution to meeting planners.

New meetings, with up to 150 peak room nights, must be booked by June 30, 2009 and take place within the calendar year. In addition, there is a mutual block review at 90, 60 and 30 days prior to arrival. Other details, terms and conditions are available online or may call 1-800-THE-OMNI.
