Some places are simply somewhere to sleep. The Gantry Hotel is something different.
Inspired by Long Island City's rich history of makers, textile workshops, and artisans, our hotel was thoughtfully reimagined for travelers who appreciate beautiful details, meaningful spaces, and neighborhoods worth exploring. Here, every stay is intentionally crafted to feel welcoming, lived in, and unmistakably local.
Long before galleries, cafés, and creative studios filled Long Island City, this neighborhood was home to textile mills, furniture makers, and generations of skilled craftspeople. The Gantry Hotel draws inspiration from that legacy. Natural textures. Honest materials. Handmade details. Spaces designed for conversation, quiet work, and the simple pleasure of slowing down. Nothing here feels overly polished. Every corner reflects thoughtful design with warmth, character, and purpose.
Warm lighting. Natural materials. Comfortable places to read, work, or simply do nothing.
Every guest room balances understated design with thoughtful comforts, creating a place that feels less like checking into a hotel and more like borrowing the beautifully curated apartment of a friend who knows the neighborhood well.
Featuring custom seating, warm ambient light, and room to unpack and make yourself at home.
Tailored bunk accommodations designed with natural materials and smart details.
It’s a quiet, perfectly balanced space designed for easy evenings and restful sleep.
Long Island City has always been a place where things are made. Today, that same creative energy lives on through independent galleries, makers' studios, neighborhood cafés, riverfront parks, and local businesses that reward curiosity. Whether you're crossing into Manhattan, wandering Brooklyn, or spending the day exploring LIC itself, The Gantry Hotel offers a quieter place to begin and end every adventure.
