Overview
Mission
The Harvard Club of New York City fosters a welcoming and vibrant haven—a peaceful retreat in the bustle of midtown Manhattan—offering private rooms for overnight stays and spaces for working. I love every part of my membership. What I appreciate most are the guest rooms and the library service with working spaces. Member since 2024, FA Service was wonderful as always, as was the ambience and the food. The staff is the best. Always make us feel at home! Service was wonderful as always, as was the ambience and the food. Member since 2018, C’72 Athletics is one of the strongest features of a club hotel stay. The staff and facilities are first rate!
