NY State Lodging Makes Compelling Comeback from Tropical Storm

BINGHAMTON, N.Y.

DoubleTree by Hilton has announced the opening of its newest hotel in New York with the DoubleTree by Hilton Binghamton. Formerly the Riverwalk Hotel and Conference Center, the property experienced significant damage caused by Tropical Storm Lee in 2011.

Following the completion of a two year, multi-million dollar renovation, the property has transformed into an upscale, full-service hotel owned by Alfred Weissman Real Estate and operated by the Newport Hospitality Group.

The 207-room hotel now features elegantly designed suites with sprawling views of Downtown Binghamton and the Chenango River. The hotel also offers 32,000 square feet of expansive conference space including a courtyard and outdoor garden terrace, ideal for weddings and outdoor events. The flexible meeting space can allow for up to 17 breakout rooms, and includes the Serling Room—an amphitheater-style lecture room that can accommodate up to 50 guests.

Just 10 miles from Greater Binghamton Airport, the hotel offers easy access to the area’s historic, cultural and scenic offerings, including the historic Forum Theatre and a wide array of shops, art galleries, restaurants, cafes and nightspots. Visitors can enjoy a stroll alongside the Chenango River on the Binghamton River Trail or explore nearby attractions, including NYSEG Stadium, the Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena, the Roberson Museum, Binghamton Zoo, Binghamton University and Broome Community College.
