The Sohotel staff was wonderful. They went out of their way to make sure each guest was accommodated and gave wonderful advice about the neighborhood. Our group primarily chose this hotel because of the price. The hotel offers a lot of amenities for the price. The linens were great and the bathroom was up-to-date and very nice. The bed was also very comfortable. There was free wi-fi and each room had an air conditioner (and my room had ceiling fan as well). The downside was the size of the room and the street noise. I wore earplugs at night for the noise and the size of the room really didn't matter because I was out touring most of the day and only came back to the hotel to sleep. The location was just okay. It is located in NOLITA and there are several subway lines within a few blocks. The Grand St. subway line will take you directly uptown to 34th, 42nd, 7th and 53rd or 59th Streets (and beyond). Getting off at 42nd (Grand Central) means only a short walk to Times Square. The hotel is certainly not in a touristy area, but within several blocks you are on Broadway and all the shopping options it provides. Also, if you like Italian or Chinese food then this is the hotel for you because there are literally dozens of restaurant choices at the doorstep of the Sohotel. Overall, the experience was a good one.
