Virgin Hotels is set to open hotels in three US cities this year.
It begins this spring with the long awaited opening of Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, followed by Virgin Hotels New Orleans this summer and Virgin Hotels New York City later in the fall.
It also plans to open in Miami in 2022.
"As evidenced by our openings this year in these major cities, we are very optimistic about the return of travel despite the tremendous difficulties posed by Covid-19," said Raul Leal, Virgin Hotels CEO.
"We are not only thinking of the out-of-towner but also focused on providing the unique Virgin Hotels experience to the communities we call home."
The Las Vegas hotel will open with 1,504 Chambers, Grand Chamber Suites, and Penthouse Suites.
It also comprises a 60,000 square feet casino.
The new-build New Orleans hotel will have more than 230 Chambers and meeting and event spaces.
It is located near the city’s Central Business District.
The high-rise Virgin NYC has 463 keys, retail units, a pool, a rooftop bar and dining outlets.
Virgin currently has hotels open in Chicago, Nashville and Dallas.
