At the end of the day, what’s a great hotel but a place where you feel at home, well-tended, amused, connected, comfortable and above all, at ease? Where impeccable service is friendly, not fussy – and where it’s deeply cool to be warm and down-to-earth. That’s why we built The Nolitan Hotel, to bring that experience to life in the midst of the energy, creativity and hustle of New York.
Located at the corner of Kenmare and Elizabeth Streets, The Nolitan Hotel is the first boutique hotel to open in Nolita – one of the most endearing and authentic neighborhoods in New York City. It offers guests much more than just luxurious design accommodations, unique amenities and fantastic food 24/7. It offers a genuine New York experience and real community – Linger. Enjoy. Imagine. Make friends. Experience life like a Nolitan.
Nolita – actually an abbreviation for “North of Little Italy” – is creative, cool, international and historic. Who wouldn’t want to stay here? Who wouldn’t want to feel like they’ve really experienced a piece of THIS New York?
Nolita is that rare place where the mechanics of daily life are as important as the presence of worldclass design and fashion; where you can eat a meal prepared by the most innovative young chef in America, or top at a local grocer for a piece of fresh fruit and a coffee.
Luxury boutique hotel meets neighborhood place, eh. What does that actually mean? Well, the intimate property has 55 rooms – meaning every guest can expect personalized attention and intuitive service. This place is about service – yes, but not stuffiness. They’ve thrown out the Reginald Jeeves hotel butler uniforms, but they’ve kept the five star service. Don’t be surprised if the entire staff is greeting you by first name by the time you check out. (Check out time isn’t until 2pm, by the way. How cool is that?)
When you are staying at The Nolitan Hotel you will have the best service, luxury and hospitality available to you. The staff is there around the clock to provide you with with whatever you need – And we mean WHATEVER – a shoe shine, a presentation printed, dinner reservations, or even a dog walker. All dogs from Neapolitan Mastiffs to teacup Chihuahuas are welcome at The Nolitan. In fact, the hotel has a Director of Pet Relations; a six-year old Shepweiler (German Shepherd-Rottweiler mix) named Penny. Penny will make sure all the pet provisions and amenities are in order when you let the hotel know you are coming with your four-legged friend. She’ll arrange everything from spa treatments to peanut butter ice cream and give you the scoop on neighborhood dog runs and pet friendly establishments.
Epicurean Management Company (EMCo.) – the hospitality company whose restaurants include dell’anima, L’Artusi and Anfora – has signed a deal to develop and operate the restaurant in The Nolitan hotel. The seasonal American restaurant will be named Ellabess, and the chef will be Troy Unruh, who was most recently chef de cuisine at dell’anima.
When you venture beyond the hotel, The Nolitan has already hooked you up with the best the neighborhood has to offer. As a standard amenity, all hotel guests can take advantage of special shopping offers, personalized services and discounts provided by partnering neighborhood boutiques and brands. And there are skateboards and bicycles, so you can really hit the streets.
