The Redbury New York, historic hotel in midtown Manhattan, New York City
The Redbury New York is a hotel in Manhattan's NoMad neighborhood with a historic stone facade decorated with red flags. The lobby features blue tiles, chandeliers, and white columns creating a busy gathering space, while guest rooms are designed with modern finishes in white, red, black, and gray tones, and Marta restaurant on the ground floor serves Roman-style pizza made with local ingredients.
The hotel opened in 1903 as a residential hotel for women and changed ownership and appearance multiple times over the decades. Major renovations in 2015 added new rooms and public spaces, while a 2016 redesign by a noted photographer gave it its current bold, modern character.
The name Redbury comes from the red color visible in the facade and flags outside. The interior mixes 1950s and vintage Italian touches, creating a space that reflects New York City's lively spirit and serves as a gathering place where visitors and locals meet.
The hotel sits on 29th Street near Fifth Avenue, Madison Square Park, and the Empire State Building, making it convenient for walking to major sights. A daily fee includes WiFi, digital newspapers, and gym passes, while staff assist with reservations, luggage, and local recommendations.
The hotel served historically as a gathering place for social events and was also used by hotel staff for community celebrations and special happenings. This connection to local cultural gatherings like Pride parades shows its role in Manhattan's broader community life.
