To our guests we offer the following notice to provide full transparency, manage expectations and create the best possible understanding of what one should expect when booking a stay at 1871 House. Along with country inn coziness, old world ambience and character come sloping and squeaky floors and irregular plaster walls. An older internal infrastructure "systems" design, though embedded with new components, translates to occasional banging or hissing steam radiators. It can also mean occasional changes in water pressure and temperature and in extreme cases you may have to wait a few minutes for your shower. Potential guests should remember 1871 House acquired its name from the year it was built and though our furnace and water heater are new and all of the buildings wiring and plumbing has been redone the constraints of an older shell will create a different experience then a 6oth floor room in a modern steel and glass tower.

1871 House specializes in extended stay packages for both the vacation and business markets. We have served the global corporate market on both an intermediate and long term stay basis as well as accommodate hybrid variable stay bookings. We often become a literal home away from home for individuals and families who desire to have a homelike atmosphere for extended personal vacations or personal needs accommodations. Our fully furnished and stocked apartments serve the extended stay market well and our optional and flexible concierge services allow the busy executive to be productive or the desiring of relaxation family to relax. Please inquire about our thirty day to one year extended stay packages.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with New York City Fire and Building Codes, they are stringent and taken seriously by local authorities. Operators of multi room or apartment facilities in New York City must pass a variety of inspections and are monitored on a random ad hoc basis whether it be from the Building Code Enforcement Officers, Fire Marshalls, Housing Authority, Health Department or any of the other City Agencies that a multi unit building must comply with. Our garbage can be inspected at any time to be sure of proper recycling procedures, our sprinkler system tested for pressure, our emergency exits reviewed for lack of obstructions, heating system checked and our water tested for proper high temperature (yes, they actually pull out a thermometer to see if the water is hot enough). Inspection results are noted and displayed in our outer lobby area. We are subject to heavy fines and unable to operate until we pass required levels of compliance.
