Sniffen Court is a building in Lower Midtown, in Manhattan, New York City. It was built by John Sniffen in the 1850's, and comprises ten brick carriage houses in the Romanesque revival style. These red-brick houses are a much desired address in Manhattan. Although you would be staying in what was once mews, these have been well renovated to cater to 21st century creature comforts.

You can peek at Sniffen Court from the gate outside, but unless you know someone living there, you are unlikely to get to go in.
