Crosby Street Hotel

Visually striking boutique hotel in vibrant SoHo. The interior combines modern design with comfortable furniture, print wallpaper and plush, colorful fabrics. The 86 bright accommodations sport 40 looks, but all feature enormous full-length windows; for an expansive cityscape, book on the fifth floor or above. Rooms also have large desks, inlaid chests, beds with fabric headboards, and full technology. Baths clad in polished gray-and- black granite provide double vanities and large walk-in showers. Public areas include The Drawing Room, with fireplace and deep sofas, and The Crosby Bar and Terrace, with oak floors, striped banquettes and a pewter-topped counter; both have garden views. The staff is genuinely friendly and solicitous.
