The Best Boutique Hotels in Soho (2023)

The Lowdown: The highly respected Firmdale hotel company’s first non-U.K. venture was the 11-floor, 86-room Crosby Street Hotel. Smack bang in the middle of SoHo, Manhattan but on a surprisingly quiet street, the location is very hard to beat. It has a cozy, homely feel throughout, though artistic flair abounds – most of the common areas and their individually designed rooms display a dazzling array of bold colors, quirky patterns, and interesting art. The industrial-style floor-to-ceiling windows allow for impressive views, particularly from the upper floors (they cost more though), and allow daylight to flood the space. Unusually for a high-end Manhattan hotel there is no signature restaurant here, but you have the happening Crosby Bar & Terrace which has a broad menu, very well received by guests, and excellent cocktails. Among its other amenities are a private garden, a guest-only drawing room, several event and meeting rooms, a well-equipped fitness center, and a state-of-the-art 99-seat screening room. Rooms: Their 86 rooms and suites are all individually decorated and, as you can see in the photos, are a riot of color in places. They are also enormously comfortable and spacious. The mid to upper-range suites are more like mini apartments than hotel rooms with very inviting lounge areas and fireplaces. Check your room options out here at Booking.com. The marble and granite bathrooms all display a nice sense of old-world opulence. They all come with twin pedestal sinks, RikRak toiletries, and, in the upper range suites, elegant bathtubs. Other amenities include work desks, minibars, safes, large cable TVs, Tivoli radios, air conditioning and black-out curtains/blinds. The enormous windows replace entire walls and allow great views. The hotel has 11 floors and so naturally the higher you find yourself the better the views will be. Expect to pay more though for the upper floors.

Food & Facilities: The Crosby doesn’t have a signature restaurant but the Crosby Bar & Terrace does serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner as well as brunch and afternoon tea on the weekends. The breakfast buffet has a lineup of cereals, pastries fresh fruits, etc. to READ MORE
