The Carlton hotel originally opened as Hotel Seville in early 20th century New York City as a tribute to the ornate elegance of old New York.  Opening in 1904, just months before the opening of the subway, Hotel Seville was one of several hotels in the early part of the century to transform the neighborhood’s low-scale blocks into a chic, high-rise avenue.  Now, over 100 years later, the hotel completed a multi million dollar transformation by world-renowned architect David Rockwell infusing the hotel with an ultra-modern spirit while preserving the design-forward elements of the hotel’s historical aesthetic.

This historic, luxury New York City hotel is located in Manhattan’s emerging Madison Square Park district, at 88 Madison Avenue.  The Carlton is conveniently located in mid-town within walking distance of the Empire State building, Penn Station, Madison Square Garden, the Flatiron district and Grand Central Station.

David Rockwell designed the 317 guest rooms featuring traditional design elements with a modern twist, with custom furnishings, fabrics, wall coverings, carpets and finishes juxtaposing light beige and blue accents with distressed mirrored furnishings, polished nickel, tall leather headboards and dark walnut trimmings.

Among the largest for a luxury Manhattan hotel, the rooms exude guest comforts with pillow top mattresses, luxurious linens and down feather comforters, executive work desks with built in internet data ports, 42" flat screen LCD TVs, and marble bathrooms with lighted make-up mirrors and Molton Brown bath amenities.  

With over 6,000 square feet of meeting space, The Carlton hotel offers six private meeting rooms with windows in addition to four gorgeous event spaces including the original grand ballroom of the Seville, which has a stunning, Tiffany-style glass dome skylight. The spaces are ideal for everything from intimate business affairs to large scale corporate and social events accommodating up to 350 guests.
