Location

Get to know the city better when you stroll in any direction from the hotel’s Park Avenue location. Centrally situated in the architecturally interesting NoMad (North of Madison Square Park), we are convenient to uptown and downtown. Walk to Manhattan’s largest farmer’s market at Union Square, the Empire State Building, the Theater District, Grand Central Station, Madison Square or Gramercy Park. NoMad has become a population hotel destination thanks to its proximity to other happening neighborhoods in the city; Ace Hotel also occupies a prime real estate spot in the area. Walk just a few blocks south and you’ll find yourself at Madison Square Park, where you’d be crazy not to try Danny Meyer’s famous Shake Shack (burgers, fries and milk shakes). Walk further south and over to Fifth Avenue and you’ll find yourself at Mario Batali’s mega Italian restaurant/grocery mecca, Eataly. Down a few more blocks and you’re in the Flatiron, a shopping haven whose streets are much less busy than Soho (this makes it bearable, even on a Saturday afternoon in Spring); even further and you hit transportation hub Union Square.

The MAve Hotel- Flatiron Hotels

The MAve Hotel is a new boutique hotel located in Manhattan’s Flatiron District. Located just a stone’s throw from Union Square, Gramercy and Chelsea, The MAve is modern yet relaxed, boasting hardwood floors and urban artwork. Meant to serve as your own personal Manhattan pied-a-terre, the hotel offers many a personal touch for their guests, from a warm welcome from the front desk to a bevy of amenities, inside the guest rooms and out. The MAve presents itself as a young, hip hotel that knows what it takes to keep guests happy and healthy. The hotel is the opposite of stuffy, instead going for an aesthetic that seems more Chelsea art gallery-style than Flatiron chic. Rooms are small but comfortable, with high ceilings and crisp white linens; many are accented with zebra print rugs. Make no mistake, these rooms aren’t modern bachelor pads – they’re simply rooms in a hotel that knows how to have fun with design.

Features and Amenities

Guests at The MAve enjoy rooms that are well-appointed modern yet maintain the Flatiron District’s pre-war sensibilities and architectural details. With 9 1/2 foot high ceilings and a warm palette of mixed woods found in the bamboo hardwood floors and dark mahogany furniture, the rooms are classy and comfortable. Distinctive interior elements such as burgundy headboards with an ostrich-like texture add drama and dimension. The hotel isn’t afraid to flaunt its colorful personality, with vibrant art adorning the walls – perhaps a nod to the nearby Chelsea neighborhood, which is packed with galleries. Casually chic, contemporary rooms offer free wireless Internet, Sealy Monogram ultra plush pillow-top mattresses, H20 Aquatics bath products, 32″ HDTV, iHome alarm clock.

Guests enjoy complimentary breakfast, velour bathrobes, two multi-line phones in each room, complimentary newspaper delivery, in-room safes, 32″ mounted flat screens, complimentary access to the on-site fitness center, express checkout, video on demand, valet parking and room service provided by the Park Avenue Bistro.

Walk further south and over to Fifth Avenue and you’ll find yourself at Mario Batali’s mega Italian restaurant/grocery mecca, Eataly.
