Private retreat at US Open Tennis Championship: Amex Centurion Suite unveiled
Catch the Tennis Vibe with Amex's Centurion Suite 🎾💳
Get ready to serve up style at the U.S. Open! American Express, one of the tournament's flagship sponsors, offers a world-class experience for cardholders at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Queens, New York.
Forget the regular fan experiences; Amex pulls out all the stops for its top cardmembers with the exclusive Centurion Suite. Accessible to holders of The Platinum Card® from American Express, The Business Platinum Card® from American Express, The Centurion® Card from American Express, and The Business Centurion® Card from American Express, this enticing outpost provides a welcome retreat from the tournament action.
This year, due to its popularity, you'll need to reserve your spot in advance via Resy, much like securing a table at an in-demand restaurant. Reservations opened on August 8th, and they sell out like hot cakes!
Once inside, you'll be greeted with a lavish lounge that's straight out of an airport Centurion Lounge, featuring a green living wall and a massive American Express logo emblazoned on the welcome desk. After passing through the entrance, you'll discover two main relaxation areas.
Turn left and step into the primary seating area adorned with individual chairs, sofas, and some two- and four-top dining tables. The space boasts a fresh, airy feel, thanks to its generous use of blue and white tones. Don't forget to take a peek at the signature Amex watchdog poster hanging in the corner.
On the opposite side, you'll find an outdoor deck with stunning views of the U.S. Open's grounds. If you're longing for a bite, head to the buffet for a rotating selection of light bites curated by acclaimed chefs associated with Amex's airport lounges.
Before you start savoring all the delicious treats, be sure to grab a complimentary drink ticket or feel free to redeem it for a $22 signature Honey Deuces. If you're not in the mood for alcohol, enjoy free-flowing bottled Evian water. Looking for a little tech break? Complimentary, password-protected Wi-Fi is at your fingertips.
While some fans might rush back to the courts for more action, there's more to explore inside the Centurion Suite. A quick detour into the second room reveals the dining area, boasting a bustling, U-shaped bar and a long high-top table lining the perimeter.
In the centrally-located media wall separating the two main rooms, you'll find a tennis-themed design, including carved racquets and nets. And remember, Amex always takes care of its customers—a small charging station is available to revive your weary phone while you relax in the lounge.
But that's not all; each year, a room near the entrance takes on a new form for the U.S. Open centered around one of the Centurion Lounges located at international airports. Previous iterations have included hidden speakeasies and a library. This year, the room features a thrilling Centurion Lounge-branded activation, bringing the worldwide lounge experience to the tournament.
