Go if

The location trade-off

What you're near — and what you're not

Walkable
  • The Brooklyn Bridge and City Hall
  • Stone Street and FiDi dining
  • Downtown and PATH/subway hubs
Cut off from
  • Midtown, Central Park and Broadway (~25+ min)
  • Quiet — limited nightlife on weeknights
Rooms & rate

What you're paying for

Rooms and suites layered in rich Victorian-inspired design, some opening onto the atrium; rates are generally room-only. The catch is the location — it's far downtown, so weigh the architecture and calm against the longer trips to Midtown sights.
