They bought it for bupkes at an auction.

This is going to be serious competition for the Raleigh and Armon hotels.

He says in the video that there are 135 rooms. That is much less than the Armon. Any event with significant scale will still have to use the bigger options. (IINM Armon has about 350 rooms or so.)

They didnt show the rooms in the video. Would love to know if they're family friendly - adjoining etc.

Based on the the image from the property a year ago, and the video it doesn't look like any major construction was needed. Looks more or less the same.

Back when it was a Wyndham (before Sonesta), it had 219 rooms. From the size of the place, it seems obvious that there are more than 135 rooms on that property. Some on ivelt are suggesting that the other rooms are being kept separate for a kimpeturin resort.

From the video it seems that they intend to maintain a fully frum environment at all times (unlike the Armon) and offer kosher dining all through the year. (presumably it will not be bookable through traditional booking sources.) If this kimpeturn home rumor is accurate, it would explain how this can be financially viable.

Is it legal to only have frum guests?

Any information on how to book for an event ?
Is it open yet?

What are other kosher venues for a weekend in NJ preferably?
