Expert reviews
“Lying right at the intersection of hip and elegant, The Bowery Hotel is appointed with luxurious old world refinements and décor while retaining a vibe that’s lively and modern. Factory windows offer 360-degrees of the city.”
“Nothing has quite as much old-school downtown appeal and luxury as The Bowery Hotel in the Lower East Side.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in New York.
“Pick up your old-fashioned gold room key with its red tassel in the dark, hushed lobby filled with antique velvet chairs and faded Persian rugs. Then follow the mosaic-tiled floors to your room with huge factory windows and elegant four-poster beds.”
“Reminiscent of an English hunting lodge, this hotel gets its warmth from rich tapestries, cozy fireplaces, and a vintage-inspired lobby. Many guests come for the trendy location but stay for the scene in the lobby.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in New York.
“Oddly, no two guest rooms are alike, but all are light-bathed and comfy, with more antique furnishings, fine linens, and a teddy bear (dressed as one of the bellmen), gracing each bed.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in New York.

All you need to know
The Bowery Hotel is located on the Lower East Side of New York in an area that has been officially gentrified. The area has seen a transformation over the last few years to hip and elegant with an edge. It is the rough edge of the district that often attracts tourists to it. Even celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez, Liv Tyler, Bruce Willis, and Gigi Hadid have been spotted there. The area has a great choice of restaurants, museums, galleries, night clubs and more.
The decor and design of this hotel is one of the kind, featuring industrial features paired with residential of style qualities such as hardwood floors and Oushak rugs. The spacious rooms at the boutique hotel feature floor-to-ceiling windows and have great city views, some of which include sights of the Empire State Building. Each room has a marble bathroom with a rain shower with added touches of plush towels and bath amenities.
Room service is available 24 hours a day every day but guests are welcomed to dine at the hotel’s restaurant called Gemma, which serves fine Italian cuisine. Gemma is open for breakfast lunch and dinner. When not exploring all the wonders of New York, guests are encouraged to take advantage of hotel amenities such as the fitness center, the hotel bar and explore the moody grandeur of the corridors and lobby area

Can’t wait to go back to visit my son at NYU & stay here again. So close.
We had a smaller room, but in the corner & had windows on two sides which made it feel bigger. Loved it & will go back for sure.

Great trip (get hotel discount W/app: +86 17861169200)
I was so pleasantly surprised by this hotel! The staff was wonderfully attentive and thoughtful, the rooms were clean and efficient, and the bed was so comfortable (I spelt great)! Great location, too! Very comfortable, great shower, especially coming in after a late fun night. Very relaxing and private.

Overall, a charming hotel with good food.
Room service was fast
Rooms were not cleaned in the morning. I had to ask them to come clean in the late afternoon. And there was still a lot of dust. Not cleaned well. They left the dirty plates from the room service still in my room after they cleaned my room. The room was smaller in size than I expected

Funky, friendly, genuinely classy.
Very warm, charming, funky hotel, with a genuinely relaxed style that had great 24/7 services and one of the best relaxed neighbourhoods on all Manhattan. Very funky lobby and bar. Porters/doormen were superb, helpful, available and not officious or dragging their feet when they see you with heavy luggage. Rooms were not massive but were well appointed, exceptionally comfy and charmingly classy. Love the old school elevators!
Gym is a little light on equipment and in places the hotel lighting can be a bit dark.

Lovely stay, I do think the hotel was better in the past and has maybe not the standard it previ
It’s a relaxing place, nice to escape the busy city
At times loud ppl took over the lobby area

A Great Wedding Weekend!
I loved the history of the hotel. The lobby and bar area were amazing to lounge in! My son was getting married and due to bad weather could not get married at a park and the hotel made last arrangements for him to use the neighboring restaurant! Great staff!

Some of the furniture or room needs an upgrade.

Very nice hotel
- The room was very nice, floor-to-ceiling windows and nice view - Excellent food from the restaurant Gemma - Calm inside the hotel - Friendliness of staff (except one as below) - Location (close distance to many hotspots)
- Room was not ready on arrival at 4.30 pm (issues with AC or/and electricity) - Rude attitude of one receptionist (very shot guy): at the checkin he snatched the complimentary bottle of champagne that was in our room (I got into the room at the time he was leaving it). Totally unacceptable. We did not say anything as we don't need this kind of "cheap gifts". But the behaviour is unprofessional - Despite the location being prime, there were few homeless people in the streets; one of them came too close to my partner. I guess most of Manhattan is like this so extra precaution is required (not walking late by night or taking the metro) - No shower handle - not convenient when you don't want to wash your hair every day nor put that plastic thing around your head - Absence of storage/drawers in the bathroom

The Bowery was the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The attention to detail was really amazing and I’d recommend it to anybody.

AMAZING - Can't wait to come back!
We had an amazing stay at the Bowery Hotel. The room was beautiful and the service was top-notch. Room service was delicious and prompt. We had just gotten married earlier in the day and the hotel had arranged to have champagne waiting in our room for us which made us feel so special. We met friends for celebratory drinks in the hotel that evening and the cocktails were amazing and the environment was excellent. Lively and cool without being over-done or too loud.
