Something Wicked this way comes.
In celebration of Universal Pictures release of Wicked arriving in theaters on November 22, 2024, Hilton has created a spellbinding suite at New York Hilton Midtown where up to four guests can enter the world of Wicked and experience the magic of Oz.
Bookings are currently open for stays between November 21, 2024, and January 5, 2025, enabling travelers to journey along the yellow brick road. An enchanting suite entrance features Emerald City-inspired wallpaper and a custom-designed door, evoking the magic of Wicked. An entry portal transports guests to a sophisticated living area styled after the Wizard’s Throne Room and the art deco aesthetic of the Land of Oz with no tulip left unturned, from the cozy beverage bar to the gilded green accents throughout.
Once inside the suite’s bedroom, pink blends with with green as guests are surrounded by fantastical décor inspired by the film’s central characters, Elphaba and Glinda. In the film, their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfill their destinies as Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
Elphaba’s side of the suite takes cues from Shiz University’s enchanted forest, green and moody, with tree branches twisting around the headboard and piles of enchantment books. Glinda’s part is a perfectly pink wonderland with custom wallpaper featuring a design straight from the movie and a cherry blossom tree canopy over the comfortable Hilton Serenity mattress.
“We look forward to welcoming fans to the Land of Oz in our ‘Stay Like’ Wicked suite, where they can fully immerse themselves in the powerful story of Universal Pictures’ Wicked,” said Chris Silcock, president, Global Brands and Commercial Services, Hilton.
He added, “This collaboration seamlessly blends the magic of the highly anticipated film with our signature Hilton hospitality to create an unparalleled experience for our guests that goes beyond the room itself. We’re always looking for meaningful ways to engage our Hilton Honors members and new-to-Hilton travelers, and this opportunity allows them to be a part of one of this year’s biggest cultural moments while experiencing the best of a Hilton stay.”
“The ‘Stay Like’ Wicked suite is an opportunity to truly transform the New York Hilton Midtown experience for fans this holiday season,” said Mark Sanders, general manager, New York Hilton Midtown. “This suite brings the story of Wicked off the big screen and into our hotel, creating an immersive, one-of-a-kind stay. From the enchanting décor to the special themed touches, guests will feel like they have stepped right into the Land of Oz, making their stay unforgettable.”
