33 relevant reviews

Guests repeatedly praise the hotel’s distinctive, carefully designed decor, vibrant lobby, characterful atmosphere, cleanliness, staff, restaurants, and location near the Museum of the Future and World Trade Center. However, some report noise, questionable daily cleaning, high prices, and impractical open or old-style showers, making it less suitable for guests seeking quiet, conventional business-hotel convenience.

Staff are frequently praised as friendly, attentive, competent, and exceptionally helpful across reception, concierge, housekeeping, dining, and security, with Mimi, Ali, and Ahmed singled out. However, service is inconsistent: guests report long or incomplete check-ins, missed or delayed cleaning, absent luggage assistance, unhelpful breakfast staff, and one alleged manager threat.

Rooms are repeatedly described as spacious, clean, uniquely decorated, and well equipped, with several guests praising the beds, toiletries, slippers, and complimentary minibar. Recurring drawbacks include severe nightclub or bar noise late into the night, construction disturbance, occasional poor cleaning, plumbing and temperature problems, awkward bathroom design, uncomfortable pillows, and limited water provision.

Distinctive, stylish facilities include a lively pool overlooking the Museum of the Future, an impressive Technogym gym, Monkey Bar cocktails, arcade, library, vinyl lounge, and complimentary minibar replenished every three days. However, loud events reportedly continue until 3 AM, while some rooms had bathroom odors, visible dust, inadequate drinking water, and hotel taxi pricing far above Uber.

Staff are often praised for exceptional customer care and efforts to reduce delays, but check-in and check-out frequently involve long queues, understaffing, and luggage assistance problems. Reported issues include overbooking without alternative accommodation, assignment to an occupied room, room changes near maintenance, confusing paid-upgrade offers, and upfront payment for room service.
