The Mercer

New York, New York

Downtown loft living in a landmark SoHo building.

Property Overview

The Mercer is a serene, design-forward refuge in the heart of SoHo, set within a landmark Romanesque Revival building at the corner of Mercer and Prince Streets. With seventy-three rooms across six floors, the hotel has long defined downtown New York hospitality—authentic loft character, instinctive discretion, and a private terrace garden that feels worlds away from the street outside. Rooms overlook either the neighborhood’s storied streets or a tranquil private courtyard, where French doors open to quiet light. Intimate and highly personalized, it offers a quiet counterpoint to the city’s pace while remaining deeply connected to its cultural fabric.

Restaurant + Bar

Italian heritage in the heart of SoHo.

Sartiano's brings Italian heritage to the ground floor of The Mercer, created by lifestyle architect Scott Sartiano with culinary direction from three-time James Beard Award winner Chef Alfred Portale.

The Carrera Bar is the no-reservation option within Sartiano's, with forty-five seats, the full dining menu, and a solid cocktail list. If you try one thing, make it the Dirty Umami Martini: American Harvest organic vodka, house-made olive umami brine, kalamata olives, and black truffle caviar. It's as good as it sounds.
