For a hip stay

The Mercer

For a design hotel

Arlo Soho

  • Arlo Soho is a 325 room boutique hotel with plenty of light and plenty of beautiful wood furniture. Rooms have their own fridge, or you can enjoy a drink and excellent food in the rooftop bar. The best rooms have a balcony with an incredible view. If you like mid-century design you’ll like it here.
  • Right on Canal Street, on the edge of SoHo and Chinatown, 11 Howard is another super chic Scandi-style design hotel. The floors are oak, the ceilings high, the restaurant French — with a Michelin star — and the art is original and contemporary.

For epic city views

SoHo Grand Hotel

  • The SoHo Grand Hotel is a sumptuous, elegantly designed 353 room hotel — think the gilded cage of the 1870s meets the luxe fashion of the 1970s! Perfect for your average ultra-chic New Yorker, with the original artworks, the stylish bar, sophisticated club and acclaimed restaurant.
  • The Hotel Hugo is a retro delight, with 122 rooms designed by architect Marcello Pozzi and decorated with custom-made Italian furnishings. You’re on the edge of SoHo with views of the Hudson River and the skyline of Downtown Manhattan, which you can really enjoy from the double storey rooftop bar.

For luxury

Crosby Street Hotel

  • Crosby Street Hotel is an achingly cool, 86 room SoHo hotel loved by celebrities and design addicts for its chic Kit Kemp interiors. You’re surrounded by cool, with original art on the walls and an impressive list of celebrity guests (including James Bond himself), yet the hotel is on quite a quiet street, and the main event of most rooms are the floor-to-ceiling views of Manhattan’s skyline.
  • Nomo Soho is a luxury hotel boasting a curated collection of vintage and contemporary art. Stylish rooms are decorated in white and blue hues and boast luxe bathrooms and epic city views. Complete with an American restaurant serving creative dishes and superb cocktails. A hip luxury choice.

For great value

Sixty Soho

  • Sixty SoHo is a hip and stylish place to lay your head. Its chic rooms are full of individual details, like artworks by Harland Miller and selected literature. The phenomenal bar and restaurant are incentive enough to stay here, and it's a lively spot to see and be seen. Yet rooms can be pretty reasonable if you're visiting in a quiet time of year.
