Hotel Gansevoort

If high-tech, minimalist hotel style is your preference than look no further than the Hotel Gansevoort. We stayed for 3 nights from 20th - 23rd January 2005 for my 30th birthday and it is the best city hotel we have ever visited. The hotel has a great location in the more relaxing and very hip meatpacking district of the city with all the best bars and restaurants on your doorstep. We stayed in a suite which had great decor and was very large by New York standards. The room door opened into the lounge area with a huge wall mounted LG flat... more

Stayed 3 night, great hotel ! Was upgraded to a Grand Deluxe room with a great view of the river... the rooms are quite large for NYC standards, amazing bed, all brand new, well equipped with great amenities... The service of the stuff was outstanding, from front desk to bell boys and concierge, all wiling to help with a smile... hard to find in many NYC hotels... Not cheap but very recommended if you have the $$$ ... I will be back there again soon...

Spent 5 nights in Grand Deluxe room with a great view of the river and surrounding area. Room was large and very comfortable with excellent bathroom and amenities. Service was professional and downtown location was great. Hotel is within walking distance of some great restaurants and bars. Would definitely stay here again.

We stayed one night at the Gansevoort. The staff were friendly and helpful, the room modern and beautiful, nice bathroom and robes, enjoyed the turndown service and a great location right across the street from Pastis and Spice Market. The bed was incredibly comfortable with nice linens and a featherbed. The complimentary continental breakfast was a nice touch although the mini-muffins and croissants were really tiny and you couldn't really take more than 2 with the cocktail napkins provided. There isn't much of a gym yet (it's basically... more

my room was huge compared to NYC standards, stayed for 2 days, loved the look of the room, my sony cd player in the room came in handy, the plasma screens, the big bathrooms, the lounge on the roof. Room service was great, rooms had great perks, I wish I could have stayed longer, it was a nice hotel, the staff was very friendly. It is a party hotel, right in the meat packing district. I will stay here again, the best I have stayed in NYC.

We stayed four nights 14th -18th October. Initial impression was very disappointing as our room was tiny. We were given the upgrade I asked for the next day as they were full the first night. Our new room which looked of average size on the plan was excellent -very hip- and by New York standards large. The bed was the most comfortable ever, and I wouldn't normally rave about a bathrobe, but then I have never been provided with such a gorgeous robe. The complimentary breakfast served on the roof terrace was very good. The nightclub on the... more

It was a great hotel. From the moment we arrived the staff was helpful and courteous. We were travelling with two young children and they were made to feel quite at home for our weekend stay. Check in was quick and room was very comfortable. Hotel is very close, 2 blocks from the nearest subway which made travelling around the city quite easy. Neighborhood gets a little noisy and lively at night, but it is the city that never sleeps. Overall a wonderful experience, would gladly stay there again. If only they put little chocolates on... more

We simply must take the opportunity to thank Hotel Gansevoort for a most pleasant stay on the way to GB. Our only regret was that it was too short. Our compliments to the atmosphere of the hotel, the service and .... well everything was perfect. We have never stayed in a hotel so clean, so neat, so personal. Needless to say, our expectations at the London hotel was quite high. They were not even close to your standard. We hope to be visisting New York again sometime and we can think of no other place to stay than the Gansevoort. Meanwhile we... more

I have stayed at numerous "trendy" hotels in New York City including the W's and the Hudson and I'm always looking for something unique. Unfortunately the Gansevoort is not it. It's the same old modern, minimalist decor, small rooms, and tragically hip 20-somethings parading around hoping to spot celebrities. Although the staff was pleasant and the decor quite beautiful, there is absolutely nothing to distinguish this hotel from the others. And the "bar" on the hotel roof is more frat party than cool lounge. My friends and I were quite... more

The hottest of hot scenes in the best location in the city! From the time I checked in, to the great rooftop bar, outstanding rooms with a view and very solid, courteous service, this hotel was a pleasure to find in NY, where often you get much more style than substance...Despite the great location and popularity of the property, the Gansevoort has managed to maintain and deliver great and courteous service, which is always welcome when you're away from home! I would definnitely recommend this hotel!
