    Gorgeous rooms! Loved everything about my stay from the gorgeous rooftop with free flowing coffee to the views from every angle! Rooms are very nice and comfy, service spectacular

    King sized bed

    We had a great experience staying at Hotel 50 for the remainder of our NY trip. It is in a super convenient location right in Chinatown and within walking distance to lots of popular food shops. The staff has been very attentive and would send texts to check in on us throughout our stay to see if there were any issues. They held our luggage for us until our room was ready. We stayed on the 15th floor and had a view of the city and Chinatown. They provided us complimentary water and even a bottle of champagne to celebrate our anniversary. There is complimentary coffee, tea, and a water refill station on the second floor. They have lots of lawn games to play and seating if you want to just chill. They have a nice rooftop bar/restaurant with great views as well. In our room, it can get a little noisy as the hotel is located in a busy area. Even after midnight, you can still hear cars honking outside but it didn't affect us too much. Definitely recommend staying here if you want to be around the Chinatown area!

    Hotel 50 Bowery was a great stay. Front desk staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. Extra pillows and towels were sent quickly upon request. Elevators were slow, as one was out of service. The location is perfect. The room was very clean, which I was thrilled about. It had enough space for two people. I loved the shower. Makeup mirror was the appropriate height to do makeup and the lighting wasn't bad. Bed was comfy. Some wall hooks near the entryway would've been appreciated though. We had a great view. I was not thrilled about the HVAC, which vibrated/rattled loudly. I would've asked for a different room, but by the time I realized, I was already unpacked and showered. The thermostat doesn't go below 65, so I could never stay here in warm weather, but I'd happily return during other times.

    Continues to be one of our favorite hotels in nyc. Hospitality like no other, clean, good location in the lower east side, consistent.

    I had a great day at hotel 50 Bowery in New York. I arrived late from California around 10 PM and the front desk staff were incredibly welcoming. Ricky at the front desk was especially helpful and made the check-in experience smooth after a long travel day. He gave me a beautiful room with a great view of the Manhattan Bridge, which was a nice surprise. Ricky also recommended a small noodle shop about three minutes away from the hotel, which was perfect for a late dinner. The hotel is located right by Chinatown, which is a truly a foodie Haven with so many great spots within walking distance. In the morning, the hotel offered complementary tea and coffee, which was a nice touch before heading out for the day. My room was clean. The bed was comfortable and the shower had great water pressure always appreciate after a long flight. Another thing I really appreciate was a helpful tip from Kim at the front desk. I was about to order an Uber to JFK, which was showing around $120 but he let me know that New York taxis have a flat rate of $75 to JFK. That tip alone save me quite a bit! My ride took about 1 1/2 hours leaving around 2 PM. Overall, the service, Location, and the comfort made this a wonderful state. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit to New York.

    I stayed at Hotel 50 Bowery for one night and really wish I had chosen somewhere else. When I checked in, I was actually excited. They gave me a complimentary upgrade to a nicer room, which felt like a great start. But that feeling disappeared pretty quickly once I saw the bathroom. There was a lot of hair in the shower, like it hadn't been cleaned at all. Then, while I was showering, a bug crawled onto my shoulder. I immediately called the front desk and asked if someone could come check the room for bed bugs or anything else. The hotel manager told me it's "common" for bugs to come up through the shower drain... I've honestly never heard that before? I asked to switch rooms, the whole situation made me feel really uncomfortable and unclean. I checked out the next morning and still paid full price for the night. The manager apologized for the "inconvenience," but that was it. For a hotel at this price point, I expected way more. Wouldn't stay here again or recommend it to anyone. Cleanliness and customer service just weren't a priority.

    Had a great experience staying at Hotel 50 Bowery. The front desk and all staff was great, Kim, Andre, James, the morning and nightime luggage gentleman all showed us great hospitality. Would definetly recommend this place just from the experience with them. They were clear with charges, and very helpful on our accomodations for holding our bags before and after checking in & checking out, cabs, hot water, etc. We had no issues there! The view was awesome. Definetly try to get a room with a view and it was so quiet once in the room. We heard no outside noise. We wish they had the coffee and amenities stocked 24/7, but there's some periods where they do not have them. The room was just fine, yes, it could have used a little more storage or shelving, along with a thicker or more sound proof door (no we didnt hear much but yes you could hear through the door easily) but we made do since it was clean, tidy and simple. These issues we didnt mind as they were a small worry for the overall pleasant stay. We hope to be back soon! Thank you Hotel 50.

    This was a cute little hotel located in Chinatown with easy walking access to the financial district. I love that the subway was several blocks away, so easy to get around and venture uptown or into the Bronx or Brooklyn. there are also several awesome spots to grab a quick bite in Chinatown there are within walking distance of the hotel. The hotel was clean and really cute and chic. it's New York, the hotels in general are pretty small, but it wasn't loud or didn't hear anyone at all hours of the night. I'd love that they had a little courtyard with games for folks who want to play. There's also a rooftop bar that turns into a club on some nights, but even with that I didn't hear a lot of noise. Staff was very nice and gracious and attentive and I love that there was security as you enter and you had to use your room key to access the floors. Overall, great spot to stay at if you're in town for a quick trip or have business down in the financial district .

    Clean hotel with wonderful service. Convenient location in Chinatown, walking distance to the Manhattan Bridge, Little Italy, and lower manhattan. Our room was clean and spacious with a lovely view of the manhattan bridge. The staff were friendly and helpful. The only downside was that the water pressure in the bathroom of our hotel room was terrible. The pillows were uncomfortable as well but overall, I enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend to others. Nice rooftop bar also with views of the city.

    Clean Bathroom. However, there were few scratch markings on some of the tiles and mirror.

    Hotel 5o Bowery is an upscale boutique hotel with a great view of the city at an affordable price. It's located in the heart of downtown NYC. They have plenty of amenities such as free WiFi, Fitness room, Breakfast drinks, laundry, concierge and pet friendly. The hotel room has Sealy brand beds, 43" flat-screen TV In-room safe, plush robe, art wall, rainfall shower, hair dryer, wooden hangers, and mirrors. Moreover, we were disappointed to see that some bathroom tiles and mirror have scratch marks. The bedroom size was roughly 260 sq ft. The best part of the room was it has the view of the city. Staff were cordial, competent and professional. Check-In and check-out was a breeze. As for the price it's one of the best and affordable hotels in the city. Also, keep in mind that a mandator $35 destination fee/day will be added to your hotel bill. Overall, it's a good hotel with modest amenities.

    Level 2 with free coffee, hot chocolate, etc

    We stayed here for seven nights 12/18-12/24/24. The good: in the middle of a lot going on, including some great dimsum restaurants. The staff is very nice, hotel is clean, moody, and comfortable with larger than normal rooms for NYC. The subway stations are about a 5 minute walk, so very convenient to go anywhere you wish. The daily access to complimentary newspapers, hot chocolate, coffee, etc was WONDERFUL because we always sleep past breakfast. The water is given freely, when you ask, and you can refill it yourself (NYC tap water is great). The decor is great: love the white sheets, the wall art, and the stone in the shower. The closet was nice, but needs drawers. Toilet worked well, water pressure was fine in our shower, bed comfortable, mini fridge is empty so you can fill it with your leftovers and use the microwave on the 2nd floor at any hour - all great! We are Hyatt Explorist level, but were gifted a GOH certificate for our stay, giving us zero destination fees (saved us about $250 total), free daily breakfast (2 options: delivery from the restaurant next door or a continental buffet), free parking (we didn't need), and a suite upgrade, if available. The bad: I inquired about the suite upgrade and requested a city view via email before checking in and they proactively said there were no suites to put us in, but they "upgraded us" to a Manhattan Bridge View. I reminded them we did not want a view of the bridge, but we preferred a view of the city. I checked and there was that upgrade available, which would have cost ~$30/nt more. It was a bit frustrating they didn't offer that to us after my first email and that I had to figure out if it was available (by trying to make a second reservation online) and then had to ask for it again. If we are on a Globalist level (via the award), why make us jump through extra hoops? That put a bad taste in my mouth before we arrived. When we checked in on the 18th, the front desk person gave us a room on the 17th floor with a city view, but the room smelled very strongly of smoke and mildew, so we immediately returned to get a new room we could breath in. She said they had one "with an even better view" on the 9th floor...Room 926. She thought this was better because it is a straight on view versus the room on the 17th floor, which was smaller and kind of cramped into a corner (see pics). Again, why try to give us a less desirable room when you are supposed to be treating us like a Globalist? Strange business practice. We stayed in Room 926. There are so many opportunities to take this from a 4 star room to a 5 star room... There is literally nowhere to put your stuff. There is ONE small drawer above the minifridge that fit my underwear, socks, and bras. My husband had to keep everything in his suitcase. Each nightstand has the smallest two drawers I have ever seen in my life... I fit some cords, my daily pills and cough drops in them (no clothes would fit at all). There is ONE hook in the bathroom, but there are two of us, so one person has to have their towel stay wet under the other...why not add another hook for $3?!? The bathroom vanity has zero drawers or storage space for your stuff. So frustrating as a girl. Why not add a shelf or two so two people can have their toiletries accessible? A week living out of my toiletry bag wasn't ideal. Same for in the shower... the "shelf" barely fits the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash bottles they provide, but zero room for anything you bring...why not add another shelf or two so we don't have to put our stuff on the floor where strangers dirty feet were?? I chose to take my stuff in and out of the shower stall because I refuse to put my stuff on the gross floor. There was a lot of black mold on the stone walls, so I'm sure there was a lot more on the ground. They need to do better at scrubbing the tiles so there is no mold. Big TV, but very strange it is not a smart TV so you can't log into your own Netflix or anything. The lighting is really bad for trying to do makeup. The mirror that is near the windows is a decorative mirror, not a functional one. The mirror that is functional is too far away from a light source to see well enough to do makeup. The bathroom mirror somewhat works, but still not ideal. Swap out the decorative mirror with a functional one near the windows and there would be no issue. Overall, the stay was good for a weekend. It was not functional or comfy enough for a seven night stay in winter where you have a lot of clothes to fit. Overall,

    We were thrilled with our stay here. Great location, easy to catch a subway, easy access to Brooklyn. Such a great community feel as we walked around the neighborhood. The rooms are some of the biggest in NYC for the price and the views are fantastic. Everything was clean and well maintained. Great rooftop bar for more views. Would absolutely stay here again.

    Hotel 50 Bowery has gone downhill since my last stay in 2018. The rooms have not been well maintained or updated, and the property has become quite run down. Pros: location, view, price. If you like to spend time in Chinatown, SoHo, and/or the Lower East Side, the location is ideal. The Manhattan Bridge is steps away, so it's easy to get to Brooklyn as well. Rates are competitive, and the rooms do offer beautiful views. The staff are also friendly. Cons: everything else. I stayed here twice in December, and was surprised at the deteriorated quality of plumbing, linens, furniture, and soundproofing. The shower drains were clogged in both rooms. The sheets were thin and stiff. Lots of noise, even on a high floor. Hotel 50 Bowery is now on par with a Holiday Inn.

    Rain shower!! Grout ain't clean

    Are the Bowery suites right below or adjacent to the rooftop area? I'm concerned about noise. Do you offer rollaway beds?

It overlooks the Bryant Park skating rink, Winter Village and has views of the surrounding buildings. The views here are AMAZING!!! I recently attended one of their free yoga classes as part of their Winter Fitness program. The space is pretty large and comfortably held the 40 or so attendees the night I attended yoga. We all were informed beforehand to bring our own mats and towels as these would not be provided. The yoga sessions are run by different yoga companies and the one I attended was by Sputnik Yoga and was a silent headphone yoga session. We each were provided, free of charge, headphones to wear during class. This was my first time attending a session like this but had a blast! The headphones took a bit getting used to, but I loved that you could clearly hear the teacher during the class. They also played some cool music while helping to block out all other sounds. This really helped me focus on the movement and the instructions. The class was an open level Vinyasa but the movements and flow were slightly advance. It was quite a workout and I was sweaty by the end. After class, we were each given wipes to sanitize the headphones and our mats. Then we all took selfies in this beautiful space and one final group picture, which they posted on their Instagram account. This was by far the coolest yoga class I've ever taken. I've been telling all of my friends and co-workers about it and have already signed up for some of their upcoming classes. Overlook offers other types of activities like Meditation, Ribbon Dancing, Barre classes and Story time for kids. It is a great place to watch the skaters below and enjoy Bryant Park's free activities. I highly recommend trying them out.

The event location offers sweeping views of the Hudson River, the Vessel, and a good deal of Manhattan and New Jersey's Gold Coast. The areas are supposed to be customizable, and I recently attended a party on the 21st floor. The space was more limited than I had expected, but I think it might have been configured as such. For instance, according to its website, it could fit up to 150 guests for a cocktail party or 20-120 guests for a seated dinner, but this setup held about 60-70 patrons. However, it was able to accommodate a coat check, a bar, a DJ station, a photo booth, and a few couches, while still allowing room for attendees to gather in groups and servers to pass out hors d'oeuvres. The party I attended was catered by Abigail Kirsch, and the food was fabulous in both taste and quantity. So, while the Glasshouse Chelsea is pretty far west and not the most convenient, its ability to set the scene for a great event makes it worth the trip, either as an organizer/planner or as an attendee.
