The Bowery Hotel
Sure, this stylish hotel is where our favorite actors and musicians stay when they’re in town. And the wood-paneled bar and cushy lobby are a great place to spend a few hours even if you’re not a guest. Oh, and the rooms—a mix of early industrial and preppy-bohemian—are welcoming too, and they don’t skip the things that those traveling for business need, like good desks and proper lighting. But really, if you’re coming to New York to eat, drink, and shop, you couldn’t ask for a better location. Straddling the East Village, Noho, Soho, Nolita—you name it—it’s the perfect home base, putting you within range of Estela, Prune, Il Buco, Wildair, El Rey, John Derian, Filson, Billy Reid, the Future Perfect…we could go on.
PRO TIP: Every room has a table and chairs for in-room dining, which means you can bring in brunch from Mile End or Russ & Daughters.
THE DETAILS: Rooms from $388.
