Curated Comfort. Inspired by Montclair.

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Montclair, NJ, just minutes from Manhattan, The MC Hotel, Autograph Collectionoffers an immersive boutique hotel experience unlike any other. Designed for travelers seeking creativity, comfort, and connection, this art-forward hotel in Montclair reflects the town’s eclectic charm, rich cultural heritage, and progressive spirit.

Positioned at a dynamic crossroads, both literal and symbolic, The MC Hotel merges historic character with contemporary design. From gallery-inspired public spaces filled with curated local artwork to sculptural reception pods and custom furnishings, every detail is carefully considered to reflect Montclair’s artistic soul.

The hotel’s open-concept lobby, bar, market, and restaurant create a seamless flow, serving as a social hub for locals and guests alike. It’s a space where spontaneous meetings, cultural exchange, and community connection happen organically.

On the second floor, the hotel offers versatile meeting and event spaces in Montclair, featuring custom carpets, asymmetrical color palettes, and impactful pieces by artists like Aaron Turner—creating a distinctive backdrop for everything from intimate gatherings to corporate events.

The thoughtfully designed guestrooms and suites offer a tranquil retreat, many with sweeping Manhattan skyline views. With warm green tones, salon-style art walls, and mid-century accents, these spaces blend residential comfort with curated sophistication.

Atop the hotel, the rooftop bar and terrace in Montclair deliver a retro-inspired escape, complete with metallic finishes, bold pops of color, and a cozy firepit lounge offering panoramic views—arguably the best in town.

Whether you're visiting for business, a cultural weekend, or a creative reset, The MC Hotel is more than just a place to stay—it's a cultural destination, a community hub, and a celebration of Montclair's vibrant spirit.
