Martha Washington Hotel Tour

The Martha Washington Hotel is a restoration project by Selldorf Architects for the Chelsea Hotel Group.  The hotel was built in 1903 and was originally for women only. Today, the newly converted building houses both permanent residents and transient  guests. The 261 key hotel has a conservative palette with predominant pops of red. Details maintain the history of the building,while in keeping with the concept of "modern Martha Washington."
