About The Quoin Hotel & Restaurant

The Quoin Hotel & Restaurant in Wilmington, Delaware, officially opened its doors in 2022 and is located at 519 N. Market Street inside the historic Security Trust & Safe Company Building, a Victorian brownstone designed by famed architect Frank Furness in 1885. Today, we offer a Michelin Key, 24-room boutique hotel that offers multiple dining amenities and outlets. 

At The Quoin, each food and beverage outlet operates as a distinct yet cohesive aesthetic expression and hospitality experience:

• The Quoin Restaurant delivers deliscious wood-fired fare and a curated wine program in a refined yet lively setting with outdoor patio and PDR for lunch, brunch, or dinner.


• Simmer Down, the hotel’s moody, speakeasy-style lounge set within a historic bank vault, offers bespoke cocktails and an intimate late-night atmosphere.


• The Quoin Rooftop Bar & Lounge provides panoramic city views with chic cocktail service and tapas bites — a high-energy yet polished social destination.


• Private Dining & Events range from curated private dinners to weddings, and corporate buyouts, requiring seamless execution and customized menus.
  
  

Together, these venues define the property’s identity: chic but welcoming, luxurious but approachable.
