The Lowell is a delightful small hotel with excellent amenities and a great location. There are comfortable areas for sitting and relaxing, which is an added bonus. The staff is courteous and responsive.

Firstly, there is absolutely nothing about The Lowell that is objectionable. To put it simply: it is the finest hotel in which I have EVER stayed; here, Europe, Canada or otherwise. Perfect location, wonderful facilities, the adjoining restaurant is top-shelf; I could go on and on… The real reasons to stay here, however, are the staff. Every single worker, from the front desk to the room caretakers seem to enjoy being helpful. In my opinion, this trait is something that cannot be taught. These folks are genuinely nice, and competent. NYC is deservedly renowned for fine hotels, but personally, I would never stay anywhere else. The Lowell is like a second home to me, only better…

Amazing for a proposal!
It was amazing from the moment we pulled up until the moment we pulled off. They spoil you. I didn’t want to leave. I came here with my fiancée for a proposal and they helped at every chance they could. The service was the best I’ve ever had in a hotel. The only issue I had was with reserving the room. I was under the impression with the reservation I made that I would have a room with a terrace (after seeing an option for terrace or fireplace), but I was given a room without the terrace or fireplace. Can’t say if it was the issue of the hotel or this website, but it was disappointing either way.

The staff were so friendly and helpful. I felt like I was staying at someone’s home. It was cozy, comfortable and welcoming. Jesus was the standout. The nicest doorman of any hotel I’ve stayed at. I used to live on the UES and it was nice to walk out the door and feel like you were in a neighborhood and not slammed with tourists and such, but so much is walking distance. Made me fall in love with NYC all over again.

The Lowell has it all, but your rating system does not emphasize the most important Ingredient of all: people. I have stayed in many, many fine hotels in the states and in Europe, but never, repeat, NEVER met a finer, more competent, caring, and most certainly, genuinely friendlier staff in any of them. As anyone who has visited Manhattan knows, whatever one wishes can be found there, but it is the staff at the Lowell that made my visit the most unforgettable five days that I have ever experienced.

Great room, great location, great service,
I love the Lowell hotel. The people are amazing. The service was excellent. The breakfast was excellent although full disclosure, I only had fresh fruit, but it was very good. I love the chocolates in the lobby. The location is fantasric and the size of my bathroom was fabulous. Housekeeping was fabulous. Everything was great. My only wish is that they get down comforters on their beds. I don’t know why this is so difficult for hotels but I just want a down comforter. It was almost $1000 a night I feel like that warrants a down comforter outside of that absolutely wonderful..

The Very Best
This week was my second stay at this beautiful and elegant hotel, and it was wonderful. Everything was absolute perfection. The entire staff (including Emelie at the front desk) was incredibly gracious and helpful in every way possible. My accommodations were lovely and exactly what you would expect from the #1 hotel in NYC. Be sure to dine at the hotel's restaurant, Majorelle. Jacques is most charming and gracious (as is Guillame) and the food is the very best you will find in NYC. Does all of this come at a price? Yes. But, in my opinion, it is well worth it. My highest praise and highest recommendation for this exceptional hotel.

The Lowell is a beautiful, well kept facility that treats you like royalty. Overall the place is spotless, beautifully decorated and luxurious. The only reason for my less than perfect rating was that we found that one if the towels had make-up on it presumably from the past occupant. When we notified the staff they not only profusely apologized, but changed out all of the linens immediately. We will absolutely stay there again in the future.

Very quite, clean, and welcoming. A little disappointed the Club Room was closed for private events 2 nights and the bar was packed so there was no where to sit with a drink before dinner.

Ask for a back room
The room we had for this stay was a lower floor on street side, so very noisy through the night. The rooms are lovely, but damage to walls/floors is starting to show. Maybe a little refreshing is due, because the place is enjoyed so well. Staff is always top notch and helpful!
