The Bowery Hotel

I live in the neighborhood and was looking for a place to sit and read my book. I called ahead to ask about seating near the fireplace and was told it was open to the public after 5 PM. Within five minutes of arriving, I was approached—not to take my drink order, but to be asked, “Remind me of your room number?” When I explained that I live nearby, I was told to leave my seat in an empty section and move to another area designated for non-guests. Having worked in hospitality for four years, I know that a welcoming environment for neighborhood patrons enhances the experience for visitors—because they’re here to experience our neighborhood. If you want an authentic New York atmosphere, that is it. Disappointing.

I recently attended a Monday Girl Event at the Bowery Hotel in Manhattan, and it was an incredible experience. The location is perfect for events, offering a chic yet inviting atmosphere. The venue’s decor is elegant, making it a sophisticated setting for gatherings. What really stood out to me was the professionalism of the wait staff; they were attentive, courteous, and ensured every detail was handled seamlessly. The high-end service truly enhanced the experience, and I left heavily impressed with both the ambiance and the staff’s expertise. Highly recommend the Bowery Hotel for anyone looking to book a top-notch venue!

Beautiful and charming hotel. Staff is always quick to respond. We had 2 rooms of the suite category. One larger than another. I was given the option to put a roll away bed for my 16 year old in the larger room since he is not of the legal age to have his own room which is fine since he doesn’t mind sharing the room with his older brother. However, the rollaway bed is really just enough space for a toddler not an adult so be aware of that. The front desk did waive the charge since they removed it after we explained the situation and that my son wld now sleep on the couch instead . I understand the law is the law for minimum age limits but hotel should highlight the Measurement of the rollaway bed. Another thing that the Hotel didn’t get my 5* rating is there is no kettle or a coffee machine in both rooms. That’s a-bit of an inconvenience. Other than that, love the hotel, the service , room size, beddings, amenities and the lounge area downstairs for guests only which makes it very comfortable without overcrowding . Be aware that hotel is on the main road so you will hear traffic or sirens regardless how well the windows are insulated. We forgot our phone chargers in one of the rooms and Lost and Found was very quick to locate with front office emailing me right away. Very good service indeed.

“Beautiful, cozy room. Lovely personal touch offering water and baked cookies in the evening! We requested a baby bath for our 4 month old and the concierge sorted us out...” “The room was very comfortable and the staff were all extremely nice and helpful. The restaurant was delicious and the location is perfect!!” “Very tastefully done! All the details that great hotels require:)”

This hotel is very beautiful, turly one of the kind. It’s expensive but definitely worth it. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The lounge area is classy and lovely, you could coming in to have a drink without staying. And the room, of course, is amazing, with comfortable sheets and bedding. I stayed on the lower floor but still had amazing view. The restaurant at first floor is great too; I have been there many times and have never disappointed.
