The Roger New York is a luxury hotel in midtown Manhattan, New York City. The hotel is operated and managed by Los Angeles-based JRK Property Holdings.

Originally built atop a plot of land leased from the 150-year-old Madison Avenue Baptist Church next door, the hotel was named "Roger Williams" in honor of the Rhode Island theologian and abolitionist who started the first Baptist Church in America.^[2]
