Pendry Natirar is one of New Jersey’s most extraordinary luxury retreats, blending refined modern hospitality with storied history across a sprawling 400-acre estate in the rolling hills of Somerset County. Just one hour from Manhattan, this boutique countryside escape occupies the former private estate of the King of Morocco—now thoughtfully restored into an elegant, design-forward property that feels worlds away from city life. For travelers seeking a serene yet sophisticated getaway in the Mid-Atlantic region, Pendry Natirar offers an unmatched combination of natural beauty, estate living, and curated experiences.

Set on a hilltop overlooking sweeping lawns and woodlands, the hotel features a 19th-century brick manor house with limestone details, slate roofs, and original architectural character. Inside, guests find a blend of classic craftsmanship—molded plaster ceilings, teak floors, wood-linen paneling—paired with contemporary luxury and residential comfort. With 66 modern accommodations, a full-service spa, a cooking school, two on-site restaurants including the acclaimed Ninety Acres, and year-round outdoor recreation, Pendry Natirar is ideal for wellness-minded travelers, culinary enthusiasts, couples, and weekend escape seekers.

Its location within the Natirar Park estate places guests within steps of riverside trails, gardens, and open fields. Pair that with Pendry’s signature design-forward aesthetic, polished service, and exclusive countryside setting, and you have one of the best luxury hotels in New Jersey—and one of the most special boutique retreats near New York City.
