General Information

Experience the space and comfort of home when you must be away from yours. Open year-round, Sterling Bed & Breakfast, built in 1910, is ideally situated for adventures in New York City and farther afield. Steps to five subway lines, 15 minutes by subway to Manhattan.

Enjoy our private garden or lounge in the comfortable sitting parlor. Each morning starts with an expanded continental breakfast available in the dining room or, weather permitting, the spacious garden. Each room is furnished with attention to detail. We are known not only for our guests’ choice to stay here, but for their desire to return.
