Hudson - A Morgans Hotel

Was great, neighbor was smoking and after complaining was promptly and courteously moved. Very cool hotel.

The room was quiet even tho the hotel was bustling.

A very stylish hotel with a fabulous roof top terrace. A great location!

As a home base, a great location 1/2 block from Columbus Circle and the 59st subway stop, numerous bus connections, on the SW corner of Central Park. About halfway between The American Museum of Natural History (think dinosaurs and planetarium) and Times Square. The "Shops at Columbus Circle" include a Whole Foods store on the lower level, with prepared foods and eating space if you're looking for an inexpensive alternative to restaurant prices. One caution: the hotel rooms at the Hudson don't include coffemakers or free internet access ($10/day). And they are VERY small by comparison to your average chain hotel. More like Paris or Tokyo basics. It's a happening hotel with lots of young people.

I loved the hotel concept and service. Foods were also creative.

If it is appropriate to critique what appears to be something of a postmodern experiment, this hotel is preposterously overrated and overpriced. Chief among my concerns there, then, were the miniature rooms and lackadaisical concierge, which were disillusioning to be sure.

I love everything about this hotel, even the tiny rooms. The standard rooms are tight, but for one person there's sufficient space, and the upside is that they're perfectly designed little jewel boxes. Lovely staff and public spaces. As a business traveler, the location is ideal: walking distance not only to work, but to everything I may need for work (FedEx, Staples, art store, hardware store). Whole Foods across the street for stocking up on food for the day, Europan downstairs for late nights, great restaurants on the block. Very happy here.

Last weekend I went to Manhattan and I stay @ the Hudson Hotel in the west side of the city. The location of the Hotel is great (Next to the Lincoln Center and the Park). The overall was OK! It's beautifully decorated by Philippe Starck, but the room furniture and fixtures are pretty worn out, the size of the rooms are very small, although I stay in a bigger room because I wanted 2 beds. In Short, the room was way too expensive for the accommodation they have.

This hotel was recommended by a friend, although I suspect they stayed in a fancier room than our standard queen.Pros: V convenient location for a first-time visit to NYC, near Central Park and a subway station and plenty of cheap and cheerful restaurants in Hell's Kitchen.[...].Bed was super comfy and generally clean, although the single drawer was dusty inside, window was very dirty and it seemed the bath did not get cleaned after use.Lobby is funky and the two outside bars are great, albeit extremely pricey. The sky terrace appeared to be closed/unmanned the one night we tried to go and drink there, despite the claim that it's open every night.Cons: Extremely small room, but surely you know that already. OK for a base/bed for a few nights. Just think of it as "cosy"!Very loud - and CONSTANT - traffic noise outside: general noise that didn't let up even in the wee hours, and honking horns all through the night, every night (despite signs outside warning that honking = $350 fine). Also, the room doors were inclined to slam shut so even people leaving their rooms down the corridor early in the morning could wake you.$10 a day (? no details given of whether this is for a 24-hour period or what) for wi-fi is a bit ridiculous.No coffee maker or any other frills in room.

It was just what I was expecting! I've stayed at the Mondrian in Scottsdale, AZ and loved that Morgan Hotel. I wanted that same feel and found it in the Hudson for a much lower price than the Mondrian NYC. The style and atmosphere was contemporary yet had a way of blending traditional woods and rooms such as the Library Bar into a modern hip feel. One of the coolest designed and fashionable hotels I've ever stayed at. The standard room I stayed in was very small, but I didn't mind because it looked great and modern. I'd definitely stay here again on my next NYC trip. It's across the street from an upscale mall and only a block from Central Park. Thursday and Friday nights the bars at the hotel were live and filled with people ... a great place to hang out. Truly a cool place, truly contemporary taste.
