Downtown Troy, New York

The Ilium

A historic landmark reborn. Suites, a bar and brewery, and an event hall under one roof in downtown Troy.

Our Story

Where History
Meets Hospitality

This landmark building in downtown Troy has stood for over a century, a witness to the city's golden age and its quiet renaissance. Now, it's being reborn as The Ilium: five floors of carefully considered hospitality, from a ground-floor brewery to a rooftop event hall.

Every detail draws from the building's Greek Revival bones, the fluted columns, the travertine, the proportions that make a room feel right. We didn't renovate this building. We listened to it.

The Building

Over a century of Troy history lives in these walls. The Ilium Building was erected in 1903 during Troy's industrial golden age, when the city was known as the "Collar City," producing most of America's detachable collars and cuffs. Today, every original detail has been preserved and paired with modern comforts.

The Neighborhood

Troy, New York

Just 150 miles north of Manhattan and 10 minutes from Albany, Troy is a walkable city built on 19th-century grandeur that never got torn down. Victorian row houses, cast-iron storefronts, and cobblestone streets line a riverfront downtown that feels more like a European quarter than upstate New York. It's a city of makers, chefs, and artists, small enough to know your neighbors, interesting enough to keep discovering something new.
