Cannot fault the hotel for the construction noise, but definitely request a room AWAY from the construction. We were on the 8th floor with a great view of the 9/11 Memorial, but the view does not trump the horrible construction noise that goes on all day and all night. I'm not sure what time they stop, but I'm thinking after 11p and it begins again bright and early at 6a. The construction is directly below this side of the hotel and they use a giant jackhammer attached to a Catepillar that goes on all night long. The hotel does offer a free drink (doesn't help someone who is pregnant) and earplugs (which you can still hear the noise with them in, the construction is so loud)! My husband had training in the financial district, but if he hadn't we definitely would not have stayed in this area.
The hotel is convenient to the subway, Statue of Liberty, Wall St, Battery Park. Hotel staff was all helpful, had no problems with the hotel itself, but it should be discounted greatly with the construction going on! We had a 1 queen or king room but the bed is really 2 twin beds pushed together so there is a definite valley/bump in the middle of the bed, not the most comfortable.
Will not stay at this hotel until the construction is OVER!
