The Marlton Hotel
Old-school Greenwich Village bohemian meets Paris Left Bank. Dark woods, warm lighting, plush leather banquettes, and a lobby that invites you to stay for hours. A throwback to the era before glossy hotel minimalism took over.
Book the Queen Deluxe over the standard Queen if you can — the extra 25 sq ft genuinely matters
Why It Matters
Restored by hotelier Sean MacPherson (The Jane, The Bowery Hotel) and opened in 2013. The building dates to 1900 and once hosted Jack Kerouac, Julie Andrews, and Lenny Bruce. The French-influenced redesign layers Paris over Greenwich Village history in a way that actually works — and a 2025 mural by artist Cecily Brown in Chez Nous makes the restaurant a destination in its own right.
The Marlton is Sean MacPherson's love letter to bohemian Greenwich Village — a century-old building turned into a 107-room boutique hotel that wears its history proudly. The self-described 'Baby Grand Hotel' gets the aesthetic exactly right: herringbone floors, brass fixtures, crown moldings, and marble bathrooms that feel plucked from a pre-war Paris apartment. Jack Kerouac wrote 'The Subterraneans' and 'Tristessa' here. Today it's digital nomads around the fireplace and the post-work-drinks crowd spilling into Chez Nous, the ground-floor French brasserie.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Penthouse Suite
The one room where the Marlton stops being cozy-small and becomes genuinely spacious. At around 450 sq ft, it has a separate king bedroom, a living room with wet bar, marble bathroom with bathtub, and a private rooftop terrace with views over the Greenwich Village rooftops. If you're celebrating something, this is the room.
King
Petite Full
The smallest room in the house. One full-size bed in approximately 100 sq ft. Not for the claustrophobic, but the marble bathroom and ornate detailing make it feel more considered than cramped. Good for a solo traveler watching the budget.
Full (Double)
Petite Queen
Queen bed in 100–125 sq ft. A step up from the full rooms thanks to the larger bed, but still snug. The marble bathroom and signature robin's-egg headboard give it real character. Solo traveler or couple on a budget.
QueenQueen Deluxe
The best standard room in the building. One queen bed ranging from 125 to 150 sq ft — the extra space is noticeable. Some rooms come with a bathtub, which is a rarity at this hotel. Worth the upgrade if staying more than one or two nights.
QueenThe Full
Slightly more breathing room than the Petite Full, ranging from 100 to 125 sq ft. One full-size bed. Some rooms include a closet rather than just an armoire, which helps with storage for a longer stay.
Full (Double)The Queen
One queen bed at approximately 125 sq ft. The sweet spot for a solo traveler who wants a bit more floor space, or a couple who can live with cozy. Closet or armoire depending on the room. All the signature Marlton finishes.
QueenThe Twin
Two twin beds in approximately 125 sq ft — practical for friends traveling together or families with older children. Same signature Marlton finishes. Some rooms have a bathtub.
