Amazing employees; the reception team, bar tenders, restaurant waiting staff and the luggage porters are all fantastic and are a credit to the hotel. The hotel also has a beautiful lobby and lounge/bar area. The Dirty French restaurant is fabulous too. My only complaint is that booking a high floor room with city view does not mean you will get to stay in a room on a high floor nor one that has a “city view”. I booked 2x skybox loft suites which are marketed as being located on high floors providing 180 degree “city view(s)” yet the reality is the suites are located on floor 10 (perhaps lower) and come with a view of a parking lot, a building site, a FedEx office and a distant view of the financial district. Given the hotel has 19 floors and given the skybox loft suites state a city view, I’d expect the rooms I had booked to be located on a high floor with a city view but in reality the skybox suites we had looked east towards nothing at all and were located halfway up the building. Such a shame that the reality of the rooms does not correlate with what is advertised.

Excellent hotel! Prime location in the lower East side with a lot of restaurants, bars and cafés around. Not too far from a metro stop either. The room itself is very clean and the balcony with the amazing view. The water pressure for the shower is amazing. The staff is very nice and helpful. We will definitely go back.

The Ludlow Hotel has got to be one of the best accommodations I've yet to experience. It feels like an island of quiet comfort amidst the hustle and bustle of the LES. Staff are kind, helpful, and communicative. On-premise dining is excellent. Rooms are cozy and well-appointed and interesting. All without feeling forced, run of the mill, or pretentious. I would come back to NY just to stay here. My ONLY suggestion would be to install grab bars next to the deliciously cavernous tubs.

Best hotel I’ve stayed at by far. Gorgeous lobby and rooms. Only issue was the AC in the room didn’t work well. No matter what we set it at it wouldn’t go lower than 70.

Not very sound proof from the City and hotel guests and rooms are on the smaller side however staff and location make up for it. Definitely the place you want to stay if you are looking for a cosy trip to NYC with lots of good vibes

My husband and I do a little staycation every February and try out new hotels. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice everyone was given the neighborhood. Rooms were comfy and quiet, in room dining was great. Definitely coming back in the summertime to enjoy the outdoor seating

What a great launch pad for discovering the East Village! It’s a great property, but I think what sets it apart is the hospitality….Extraordinary! Very kind staff from front desk to housekeepers. It’s my new “go to” in the East Village!

Ludlow is one of my favorite hotels in NYC. The bar lounge area is chic with a great cocktail selection. In addition, they have an adorable restaurant named Dirty French with an exquisite menu. When staying here, make SURE you get a suite with the bath tub. It is very photogenic!
