Top Life Underground Hotel Reviews

NEW YORKER BY LOTTE HOTELS

10/10 Excellent

"Love that the hotel was close to Penn station and the architecture of the hotel was kept well. Grateful there was AC in the hot summer. Staff were friendly and helpful!"

Pod Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely perfect hotel for a 4-day visit to New York with my 12-year-old daughter. The bunk pod room is tiny but had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, and the large window had a great view filled the room with natural light during the day. We loved buying our breakfast pastries in the cafe in the morning. The location was so convenient for sightseeing and also for catching the airport bus to Newark. We would stay again!"

Chelsea Pines Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent vibes here! Not the most modern place - some of the light bulbs needed replacing, and the hallways were full of boxes, cupboards and laundry bags when I was there. (I think they were in the process of upgrading some rooms.) But amazing location, super friendly staff, nice bedding, good water pressure, and the room was spotless. That five floor walk up is a LOT if you're not in good shape. (I'm not and managed to pull it off, but cursed my mid-size suitcase and middle-aged knees.) I would happily return next time I'm in the city."

Hilton New York Fashion District

8/10 Good

"Room was very spacious and clean."

Arlo Midtown

10/10 Excellent

"Our favorite place to stay when we visit NYC!"

The Standard High Line

8/10 Good

"Funky room but wouldn’t recommend to guest that are not a couple. There is really no privacy for the shower. Nice views and great location. Only real complaint is not having coffee/tea in the room. Yes it’s offered from 5-7 am in the lobby but practically who is up then and who wants to order room service for a coffee. It is a bit annoying to have to go hunt out a coffee vs enjoying one in bed."
