A prominent developer plans to expand a 94-room luxury boutique hotel in Stamford into the remaining portion of an approximately 86,000-square-foot building that once housed the former Stamford Family YMCA.
In 2008, Stamford’s RMS Cos. paid $4.65 million for an eight-story, 43,635-square-foot portion of the building, at 909 Washington Blvd., that the YMCA ran as a 97-room hotel since 1974, according to property records.
RMS refurbished the space into a 94-room Hotel Zero Degrees, which debuted in 2009 and operated until the end of 2019. RMS refurbished the hotel and rebranded it The Lloyd, which debuted in August 2020.
Last week, RMS bought the remaining two-story, 42,653 square feet from the Stamford Family YMCA for $3 million to make room for the hotel expansion, CEO Randy Salvatore told the Hartford Business Journal.
The Stamford Family YMCA was founded in 1868, but closed in March 2024.
The hotel expansion will add 52 rooms and also include a restaurant, 4,500 square feet of meeting space and an outdoor courtyard, said Brandon Salvatore, RMS’ director of hospitality.
“Our plan is to conduct a substantial renovation” of the hotel, Brandon Salvatore said.
RMS expects to submit a formal proposal in the next 30 to 45 days that should be well-received by the Planning and Zoning Commission because it adheres to the city’s zoning laws, Randy Salvatore said.
“It’s pretty much as of right,” he said. “We’re just finalizing the plans.”
