The Maritime Hotel Review
In just about any other city, the Maritime would be a major entertainment and cultural center. Inside is the Hiro Ballroom nightclub, with room for 800; Matsuri, the cavernous Japanese restaurant below the hotel; and La Bottega, a delightful, expansive plaza-level restaurant and bar. You wouldn't need to leave the hotel for a full dose of nightlife. But this is New York, and the Meatpacking District is two blocks away, so you're also near the city's sceniest, priciest clubs and boutiques. The Maritime's white-ceramic tower, the former HQ for the National Maritime Union, was the first luxury hotel to be built in the Chelsea gallery district. The warm, small rooms resemble modern ship's cabins, with burnished teak paneling, sea-blue drapes and bed accents, and 5-foot-tall "portholes" that face the Hudson River skyline. Bonus: the hotel is said to be haunted.
2010 Fodor's 100 Hotel Award Winner
The tall white building with tiny circular windows has become a much-loved Chelsea landmark that manages to make nautical cool, combining at-sea elements with contemporary lines. Deep cobalt blue and stark white linens, teak wood paneling, and Bigelow bath products in the guest rooms, plus beachy outdoor spaces—including a fabulous rooftop bar—create a world away from city shores.
