4-star boutique hotel steps from the New York Public Library with a rooftop bar and 6000-book library

Library & Reading Room

The Library Hotel By Library Hotel Collection New York houses over 6000 books organized by the Dewey Decimal System, with each guest room stocked with volumes matching its floor's theme. Guests have 24-hour access to the dedicated Reading Room on the second floor, where complimentary coffee, tea, bottled water, fruit, and wrapped snacks are always available. The hotel's literary theme extends to the Bookmarks Lounge rooftop bar, which serves drinks named after classic books and offers views of the Midtown skyline.

Rooms & Suites

Each room at Library Hotel by Library Hotel Collection is assigned a Dewey Decimal category-such as Literature on floor 8 or History on floor 9-and contains a curated selection of books that guests can read during their stay. Room sizes range from Petite rooms with one full bed to Deluxe Queen and King rooms, all including a flat-screen cable TV, iPod docking station, plush bathrobes, and slippers. The hotel's Junior Suite adds a sofa and coffee table for extra space, while higher floors offer quieter sleeping conditions away from street noise.

Dining & Entertainment

The on-site restaurant Madison & Vine serves daily breakfast, lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch with American and international cuisine, and is connected to the hotel's ground floor. The Bookmarks Lounge rooftop bar offers a cozy fireplace, indoor and outdoor seating, plus a menu of literary-inspired cocktails and light bites like cheese plates. For guests seeking a quiet retreat, the second-floor Reading Room doubles as a lounge with a piano, while the Poetry Garden provides an outdoor terrace for relaxation.

Location & Nearby Attractions

The Library Hotel is located within a 2-minute walk of both the New York Public Library and Bryant Park, and just 3 minutes from Grand Central Terminal. Times Square and the Empire State Building are within a 15-minute walk, making the hotel a central base for Midtown sightseeing. The hotel is also close to the Theater District, Fifth Avenue shopping, and multiple subway lines at Grand Central for easy access to all of Manhattan.

Business & Meeting Facilities

The hotel provides well-equipped boardroom facilities for business meetings and events, along with intimate meeting spaces designed for creative gatherings.
