SoHo - Tribeca hotels

A friend and I stayed for 6 nights in March. We had a twin room (two beds) it was very roomy and big windows which let in natural light. Comfortable beds and good bathroom. Noise was not a factor despite overlooking 6th Ave. Pleasent staff. Great to access Soho for shopping. Subway entrance 20metres from hotel door - perfect.

Just spent two perfectly pleasant nights in one of the loft doubles at the Cosmopolitan. I believe that many of the negative reviews here & on other sites predate some renovations and are from travelers who may have had slightly unrealistic expectations for a budget NYC hotel. Yes, the rooms are small- to be expected, but there is ample room for two people to do what needs to be done before hitting the city for the day. Yes, there is street noise- folks, it's NYC. We may have had one of the "big" lofts as I was able to stand up comfortably in ours. The room was unique, well appointed and extremely clean. Bigelow products in the bathroom are a nice touch. Our interactions with the staff were minimal but pleasant. The elevator IS extremely slow, so impatient types or those who struggle with stairs may want to request a room on a lower floor. Free wifi is a super bonus, but it does boot you off and require logging in again every hour or so. Unless you are inexplicably streaming video in your room, not a big deal. We did not have any issues getting cell service. The location can't be beat- fun neighborhood with plenty of bars, pubs, restaurants and street meat available, train right outside the door, walking distance to the World trade Center and Brooklyn bridge. For the price, I don't imagine this place can be beat in NYC proper.

Everything about this hotel for the price was spot on. Not the fanciest or elagant hotel but clean, spacious and great location!

It's right by Soho and the train station so the location is convenient. The worst thing about the rooms is that they're small but I actually preferred that because I'd rather pay less and give up space before I give up cleanliness, service, and location. It was only about 20 minutes walking distance from NYU and the walk there is nice because it's along Broadway, where all the Soho shops are.

We loved the hotel. It was clean and relatively inexpensive. Small room, a bit loud at night, right in Chinatown, near little Italy. Perfect for us.

Adorable hotel. Great staff. Small NYC type rooms. Near Subway stops, great neighborhood restaurants. Feels like you are living in NYC, instead of visiting. And they promise they will put hooks in the bathroom! I will stay there again.

Stayed in this hotel for NYU accepted students day. Short walk to university. Clean room, comfortable bed.

Excellent location near shopping, dining, and NYC nightlife. I have stayed in luxury hotels in the past but my stay here was one of my most enjoyable and relaxing experiences ever. Can't wait to book here again!

A great hotel to stay in. Could not find any fault with this hotel, staff very helpful and attentive.

We had a great trip. Got a driver to and from airport to hotel (highly recommended over cab or subway). Best part of our trip was Les Mis....amazing! We walked to enjoy a nice dinner at Wolfgang's Steakhouse our first night. The majority of our second day was spent by taking a right out of the hotel and walking into Chinatown and we ate in Little Italy for lunch. Empire State Building was hubby's 2nd favorite event; he agrees Les Mis was his favorite. Will never ride the hop on hop off buses again (tour guides too annoying) and not a fan of the subway. We enjoyed walking. The hotel was centered in the middle of everything we wanted to see. Great burger place just at the exit of 911 memorial site. Best cheesecake I've ever eaten was discovered at Juniors Cheesecake. Hotel was very secure and comfortable. We enjoyed our view of downtown from our room.
