Welcome to The Library Hotel
Fashioned from a landmark 1900 brick and terra cotta structure this building has been beautifully restored into a mansion-style hotel of the highest caliber. The Library Hotel is set at the corner of Madison Avenue and 41st. Street near the New York City Public Library and the Pierpont Morgan Library. Mahogany paneling, 60 impeccably appointed themed guest rooms, exquisite art work and wood paneled elevators designed to resemble a cozy gentleman's library and the ambiance of a private club, are just a few of the amenities guests will enjoy here. The Library is a showcase of tasteful design and functionality.

Each of the ten guestroom floors of the Library is dedicated to one of the ten major categories of the Dewey Decimal System*: Social Sciences, Literature, Languages, History, Math & Science, General Knowledge, Technology, Philosophy, The Arts and Religion. Each of the sixty exquisitely appointed accommodations have been individually adorned with a collection of art and books relevant to one distinctive topic within the category of floor it belongs to. Choose your favorite or explore the unique delights of each room, one visit at a time.
