The Greenwich Hotel
New York City, New York, United States · Independent · Grand Luxury
Robert De Niro built the Greenwich Hotel from the ground up on a former Tribeca parking lot, developing it with Ira Drukier and Richard Born a few steps from his own Tribeca Film Center. Each of the 88 rooms mixes Parisian antiques, Moroccan tilework, Tibetan rugs, and reclaimed Japanese lumber into something that reads more like a well-traveled collector's home than a hotel, and the Shibui Spa's pool sits inside the walls of a reclaimed antique Japanese farmhouse, shipped over beam by beam and reassembled under glass.
- 88 rooms

About The Greenwich Hotel
- The 6,800-square-foot Tribeca Penthouse was designed by Belgian antiquarian Axel Vervoordt and Japanese architect Tatsuro Miki around the wabi-sabi philosophy of imperfect, serene beauty.
- Locanda Verde, the ground-floor restaurant, earned chef Andrew Carmellini a James Beard nomination for Best New Restaurant the year it opened.
- The hotel ranked in the World's 50 Best Hotels' 51-100 list in 2025 and holds a MICHELIN One Key.
History
The Greenwich Hotel opened in 2008 as the brainchild of Academy Award-winning actor and director Robert De Niro, developed in partnership with Ira Drukier and Richard Born of BD Hotels. Built from the ground up on a former parking lot at the cobblestone corner of Greenwich and North Moore streets in Tribeca, it replaced what was once a utilitarian gap in the neighborhood De Niro had long championed — steps from his Tribeca Film Center and production offices. Each of its 88 rooms is individually designed, mixing Parisian antiques, Moroccan tilework, Tibetan rugs, and reclaimed Japanese lumber into a singular wayfaring aesthetic. The crown jewel is the 6,800-square-foot Tribeca Penthouse, a collaboration between Belgian designer Axel Vervoordt and Japanese architect Tatsuro Miki, suffused with the wabi-sabi philosophy of serene beauty.
The setting
Located on the corner of Greenwich and North Moore streets in Tribeca, one block from the Hudson River Greenway, the hotel anchors a neighborhood that De Niro helped transform from a post-industrial district into one of Manhattan's most coveted addresses, surrounded by art galleries, boutique restaurants, and the Tribeca Film Festival venues.
