Maxwell Hotel - Room details

    Blending theatrical and Art Deco effects, the Maxwell Hotel features 153 stylishly decorated guestrooms. Deep colors such as cranberry walls complement a 1930s-style mix of velvets, brocades, stripes, and plaids in gold, greens, and reds. Flourishes like hand-painted lamps and Edward Hopper prints join the art of bellman Jack Keating, who has been with the hotel since 1978. Petite baths feature pedestal sinks with white porcelain faucet handles.
  • Standard room - Situated on floors two through eight, these guestrooms offer one king or two double beds.

Maxwell Hotel - Dining information

  • The Maxwell Hotel provides complimentary coffee and tea in the lobby each morning.
  • Max’s On the Square - Singing opera-student waiters and piled-high pastrami sandwiches characterize this corner restaurant and bar that is cast as a retro New York-style deli. Redecorated in early 2003 in the hotel’s gold, red, and green scheme, Max’s offers comfortable upholstered chairs among thick square columns and Art Deco-inspired ceiling art. Open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
