Crosby Street Hotel

It might be difficult to visit the Crosby Street Hotel; you have to make your way inside the chic glass-and-brick building off of Soho's charming cobblestone streets and into the welcoming front desk area, which is decorated with contemporary art, sculptures, and photos.

Visit the guests-only Drawing Room for drinks and light fare; it has a fireplace, luxurious sofas and rockers, and access to a private garden. A welcoming and thoroughly attentive staff rounds out the ingredients for an outstanding visit. Pets are allowed at the Crosby Street Hotel. Visitors and their cherished pets are more than welcome.

The rooms feel incredibly vast since they feature floor to ceiling windows. The elevated cushions running along the bottom of the lead-paneled windows lend themselves beautifully to a late-night drink before retiring. The view to the east is magnificent, with the grime of the Lower East Side below and the flashing Williamsburg Bridge in the distance. The hotel has many benefits, but the movie theater and hotel film club are a great plus.
