History of the building

Welcome to Eurostars The Chemists' Club Hotel, a historic hotel in Midtown Manhattan that revives the legacy of one of the most emblematic buildings of the scientific community in New York. For decades, this building was home to The Chemists' Club, an institution founded at the end of the 19th century to bring together scientists, researchers and chemistry professionals around the exchange of ideas, knowledge and progress.

The story of this building dates back to 1898, when New York's scientific community promoted the creation of a dedicated space to meet, discuss and advance their research. That initial vision grew until it found its definitive home on East 41st Street. In 1909, Morris Loeb, professor of chemistry at New York University and a key figure in the club, acquired the land where the building that would open its doors in 1911 was constructed.

For years, this place was much more than a social club. Its lounges, dining rooms, laboratories, meeting rooms and specialised library welcomed researchers, academics and industry professionals who helped shape modern chemistry. Within its walls, conversations, discoveries and projects reflected the intellectual energy of a city undergoing constant transformation.

Today, Eurostars The Chemists' Club Hotel preserves the elegance of its Beaux-Arts architecture and brings back the spirit of this historic building, offering an experience that combines heritage, contemporary design and comfort. Every detail pays tribute to its past through subtle references to science, alchemy and the spirit of research that defined it. 

Staying here is much more than enjoying a hotel in Manhattan. It means becoming part of a building with its own soul, where every corner tells a story of discovery, transformation and the energy that has made New York a city always open to the future.
