The Mercer Hotel

Built in 1890 as an office building for John Jacob Astor II, this landmark location was previously home to shabby lofts for Soho artists. Then The Mercer Hotel was totally renovated into this impressive luxury boutique hotel. High ceilings and large windows add to the grandeur of each room. It is across the street from the Guggenheim Museum Soho and is near all the galleries of SoHo. It is not far from Greenwich Village, Little Italy and Chinatown as well. The super chic restaurant, The Mercer Kitchen, is located in the basement of the hotel.
