Elegant, erudite, anachronistic, comfortable and convenient Uptown Manhattan style in a historic townhouse directly across the street from the Morris-Jumel Mansion, George Washington’s headquarters for 1776’s Battle of Harlem Heights.

At the time Duke Ellington dubbed the house “The Crown of Sugar Hill,” jazz’s aristocracy lived on the elegant blocks surrounding the Mansion’s park. The B&B shares townhouse with Jumel Terrace Books, an antiquarian bookshop specializing Harlem Heights local history from the Revolution through Harlem’s Renaissance to its world renown as the Black Capital of the World.
