About this property

The Gatsby Apartment at The Historic Mansfield Residence

Step into history and sophistication at The Gatsby Apartment, an elegant two-bedroom suite located on the 10th floor of the iconic Mansfield Residence, once home to Max von Gerlach, the real-life inspiration behind F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Great Gatsby.

Overlooking the vibrant 44th Street, this sunlit residence offers a rare blend of vintage character and modern comfort in the heart of Midtown Manhattan.

The spacious first bedroom features a luxurious king-size bed and a private en-suite bathroom, and a workspace with a desk and chair. The second bedroom includes a queen-size bed.

Ideal for families or small groups, the layout ensures both openness and separation without the need for traditional partitions.

As a guest, you'll have access to The Mansfield’s amenities:
• Fully equipped fitness center
• Communal kitchen
• Laundry room
• Patio garden
• Residents’ lounge

Live like Gatsby — or at least where he once did — in this rare piece of Manhattan’s literary and architectural legacy.

*A portable twin bed can also be added to the first bedroom upon request.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features 2 bedrooms. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a dryer and an ironing board.

    The rooms were clean and beds were comfortable for the family. It’s a nice spot to land central to all of the sites for NYC. A special touch was the ability to leave your bags pre checkin and post checkout to allow for more time to explore without the hassle of carrying luggage around.

    We really enjoyed our stay at this Gatsby Verbo — it’s stylish, clean, and has a great location close to everything we needed. The décor has a fun, modern touch that makes it feel special, and the check-in process was smooth and easy.A few small improvements would make it perfect: a bit more soundproofing from the street noise, bathroom doors that close fully, and a few more hooks or hangers on the walls for towels or clothes would be super helpful.Overall, a lovely stay and great experience!!

    There was no top sheet on the beds and it’s hard to trust that duvet covers are washed between guests. Space was lacking because a mattress was leaned against a wall that we didn’t need. I had sent several questions to the host before our arrival and no one responded. There is a desk in the lobby but we didn’t arrive until 10 pm so no one else was there to answer questions either. Walls and ceiling were dirty. There was hair from previous guests in the bathroom.
