Company history

NYLO Hotels was founded in 2004 by a team of hotel executives led by Stephane Dupoux and Michael Mueller. [5] Co-founder Michael Mueller served as CEO since 2011. [6] Previously, Mueller was an executive with Starwood Capital Group and Starwood. [4] [7] Mueller oversaw the acquisition of Westin Hotels and Sheraton Hotels and Resorts and also helped engineer the W Hotels brand while he was with Starwood from 1994 until 2004 when he co-founded NYLO Hotels. Co-founder Stephane Dupoux, founder and CEO of Dupoux Design, led the creative team responsible for the identity, branding, architectural and interior design. [4] [8]

NYLO stood for New York lofts in which the company modeled its hotels after. When the company first began operating after its founding, it was headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. [9] At the end of 2007, NYLO opened its pioneering hotel in Plano, Texas, [10] later followed by two more hotels in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. [4] NYLO also has hotels in Rhode Island and New York City. The company remained based out of Atlanta until 2011 when it relocated to the Dallas area. [7]

Features

The NYLO Hotel brand featured urban styled guestrooms which combined old buildings with modern design. [5] The brand name, NYLO referred to the loft style apartments found throughout New York, but the company is focused on introducing designer hotels to secondary and tertiary markets. [8] The company aimed its attention to providing designer style to mid-scale priced hotels that were business-travel-friendly. [11]

NYLO Hotels was also focused on eco-friendly and energy-efficient operations. In 2012, the NYLO Dallas South Side location became one of 69 hotels in the United States to achieve LEED Gold certification. [12] Other NYLO locations utilize eco-friendly initiatives such as wind power, recycled building materials, and energy-efficient light bulbs. [13]
