“A revolutionary hotel on the trendy Lower East Side. It's all about public spaces here, from the cafe-bar-boutique that replaces the lobby, to the rooftop bar boasting panoramic views and the vibrant New York-centric restaurant. Add floor-to-ceiling windows and clever design tricks in the rooms.”

PUBLIC
"Hotelier Ian Schrager has once again conjured a stylish, buzzy hotspot in which the beautiful people eat, drink, dance…and work on their laptops."

Luxury for All
"A destination restaurant from Jean-Georges Vongerichten. A happening rooftop bar with some of the best views downtown. Marquee-name design. A hidden garden with a magnolia tree, Japanese maples and rhododendrons."

First look: Public hotel
"It's simply like no other hotel. Schrager has pulped the rulebook, creating something both divergent and really quite magnificent in the process."

Public
"As the name might imply, the public spaces are a big factor here, and once you walk through the ground-level garden and take the glowing, futuristic elevators up to the lobby, an entire community awaits"
