Built in 1873 by a New York Congressman as a Summer cottage for his family, the Chanler at Cliff Walk is the perfect setting for a boutique luxury hotel. The hotel was renovated beginning in 2000. The goal was to keep as much of the original building as possible. To keep the historic feel, there is no elevator. There are 12 rooms on the interior of the building spread out on the 2nd and 3rd floors. There are an additional 8 exterior rooms on the property. Some have a private deck while others enjoy a hot tub and private garden.
The room designs are based on the favorite global travel locations of family that owns The Chanler. Each room is unique in décor and theme. The specific pieces in each room were sourced from the part of the world related to its décor theme.
