Located on New York’s Upper East Side in a 1927 landmark building, The Mark Hotel is housed at the corner of Madison Avenue and 77th Street. After being closed for three years, in 2009 The Mark was completely reimagined and given a new life and identity for the 21st century. The Mark combines old-world comfort, avant-garde design, up-to-the-minute technologies and an unprecedented level of personal service.

Drawing on the expertise of an extraordinary group of talents – foremost among them the designer Jacques Grange, three-Michelin-starred chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, the world’s most celebrated hairstylist Frédéric Fekkai and visionary hotel manager Olivier Lordonnois – The Mark hotel is the new beacon of high French style, immaculate service and American technology and comfort.

Located in one of Manhattan’s most exclusive neighbourhoods, The Mark is only steps away from Central Park and is a short walking distance from New York’s finest art institutions, including The Met, The Whitney, The Guggenheim, The Frick Collection, Neue Galerie New York and The Cooper-Hewitt. Surrounded by designer boutiques, restaurants and bars, this Upper East Side address is one of the most coveted locations in all of Manhattan.
