-

The Mark Hotel, on Madison Avenue and 77th Street in New York, will launch its first e-commerce site, Le Shop, on Feb. 28.

The site — themarkhot­el.com/ leshop — will feature a collection of exclusive fashion collaborat­ions and branded products.

Among the products that will be sold are The Mark pajamas ($250 for the top and $150 for the bottoms) designed by PYJ Paris; Lingua Franca sweater ($380), designed by Rachelle Hruska; The Mark T-shirts ($50) and The Mark robe ($125).

The lineup also includes playing cards ($35), cucumber eye pads ($10), yoga mat ($60) and a weekend bag ($450).

Rebecca Soloff, director of sales and marketing at The Mark, said, “We have been creating branded products and luxury experience­s for guests of the hotel to enjoy as in-room amenities for quite some time. Guests and followers of the hotel often inquire about purchasing these signature products, and as so many of our guests are internatio­nal, it will be important for us to provide availabili­ty beyond New York.”

She said they plan to introduce fashion collaborat­ions, accessorie­s and small luxuries on an active basis. She declined to give a first-year sales projection.

“The most important aspect of our brand is to provide the absolute best guest experience, whether it is a stay or shopping,” she added. — LISA LOCKWOOD
