New York, New York Hotel Rooms at the Kimpton

Centrally located, chic, affordable and an outstanding staff. Overall, simply put, a great hotel.

Probably passed by this hotel on several occasions and always went with the big name hotels. Definitely wont make that mistake again.

The ink48 is one of the best hotels I've stayed at in NYC. I'm from NYC and I know most hotel rooms are small but the rooms at ink48 are spacious. It was my girlfriend's 30th birthday so we got the room for the weekend. Room: The deluxe city view room is huge. A 24 foot distance from the bed to the door. 2 sinks, a shower separated from the toilet, and a separate bathtub in the room which you can see the city skyline. A comfy king size bed and couch near the window. The skyline view is great and unobstructed. Hotel: Very cute hotel which offers wine happy hour at 5. Did not eat at the restaurant but the menu looked good. Service: Was great and prompt. Staff was courteous and friendly.

This was my first stay at a Kimpton hotel (get on the Karma/rewards program! It's free and you get free wifi). If you book through Expedia or any other non-direct method, it does not count as a valid stay toward the Karma program! However, the staff at the hotel still gave me the "Raid the Bar" $15 bar credit (valid in NYC) when I asked. The room (premier king) was amazing. Very clean, no bugs. Good selection in the minibar, albeit very expensive, although that's just how minibars are. The jetted tub was comfortable and a lot of fun, and everything was generally extremely pleasant and comfortable. The window offers a pretty limited view, but that wasn't a big deal to me. The hallways of the hotel were a bit strange-looking, with some maintenance closets basically hidden by crooked wall panels. This didn't detract from my stay at all since I didn't interact with the strange-looking parts (and no customer ever would have to) - it's just minutia. Thanks for a decent rate, a great room, a good night's sleep, and wonderful service.
