Chic decor, luxury amenities at this stylish hotel near Gramercy Park
This hotel is all about style. Its small size (just 135 rooms) and location in the Gramercy Park neighborhood make it feel more intimate and less touristy than a Midtown high-rise property. Modern furniture and animal print accents lend a hip vibe. Frette linens and marble bathrooms provide luxurious touches. A guest lounge offers free coffee and tea and computers for guests to use.
Highlights
  • Luxury linens and marble bathrooms
  • Guest lounge with seasonal outdoor terrace
  • Unique cocktail bar below the hotel

Greenwich Village, the East Village other exciting neighborhoods are an easy subway ride away.

Great location

All staff very attentive, friendly and helpful. Our room was well appointed, though very small. If most of your NY time is out of doors, this is a comfortable place to make headquarters.

Great hotel in Gramercy Park area NYC

We were looking for a place to stay near the Gramercy Theater that wasn't going to break the bank. The Marcel, only a block and half away was the perfect location and the prices can't be beat for NYC. The room itself was small, but well laid out that it wasn't a problem. (I do believe they have some larger rooms at varying prices) Very clean and the bed/bedding was very comfortable. Overall, great price for the location and very comfortable. I will definitely stay at the Marcel again.

Good Location to Get around NYC

I really like this hotel. I stayed there once before but I enjoyed it even more this time because it was conveniently located just outside the crush of mid-town holiday traffic. The only thing I missed was the great Italian restaurant that used to be adjacent to the hotel. Apparently it closed a little while ago. No worries though -- you can easily walk to many tasty dining spots around Gramercy Park and even Chelsea. I also had a nice stroll to the Union Square Holiday market where I got some nifty gifts. All in all, a good deal.

Tiny Room, Clean

The room is very small as was the bed. The shower didn't work particularly well. The room was very clean. I stayed overnight for work purposes and would stay again. If the shower worked better, i would have gone 4 stars.

Not the most bang for the buck

Cons: Dirty/stained shower tubs. Only standard cable TV available. Small and cramped rooms (though typical for most New York hotels). Not very soundproof. Window blinds are hard to use. Pros: Decent distance to Madison Square Park and Union Square. Excellent staff service; very helpful and friendly.
