this hotel is NOT recommendable at all. My room had a cockroach, I took a photo of it as evidence!!! The heating made such noise that it is disturbing. There s no phone in the room. Next to the hotel is a bar that plays loud music, sleeping was only possible with wax earplugs in the room I had first.... more

I was booked into this hotel for a business trip in December when everything else was booked or incredibly expensive. Found a room here for a couple of hundred bucks. Was very pleasantly surprised when I arrived. Had a massive room with two double beds, flat screen tv etc. Was slightly old fashioned but very clean and comfortable and actually... more

Stayed here a week in mid sept & thought it was terrific. As for the last reviewer the staff were super friendly,desk was always attended(there were 3 of us,all guys,so you can imagine the late nights) and as for the drunks loitering,we never saw any at all(unless you count us)!! Big flat screen tv in room,50 yards from Mulberry St,room... more

This is the oldest motel in nyc...it has tenants who pay $80/month because of the new york state rent low-income laws passed in the 1970's, so it's not only a motel but also a low-income tenement...no elevators...no cable tv...no telephone...no smoke detectors...no one at the front desk at 3:37 am...no towels...no in-room safe...no doorman (many drunks come to loiter at... more

Great hotel in a fantastic loaction and at a great price! I would stay here again in a heartbeat. For a long weekend away of just wandering and eating, the Sohotel was the perfect hotel for us. No denying the room was small and the flights of stairs up a bit tough for my stupid suitcase, but the staff was... more

The Sohotel is perfect if you are looking for an amazing location, great bang for your buck and the friendliest hotel staff in NYC. Honestly, I don't know what else you could be looking for than that. Maybe if you want something fancy with a pool and a fitness center it might not be for you; otherwise, it's perfect. First... more

Our experience with the Sohotel could not have been better! When I called to make a reservation for our 5 night stay I was told they were fully booked for what we needed, the lady on the phone "moved some things around" and was able to work us in. We got a room for 5 that had 2 full size... more

As you probably know, there's not many affordable hotels in Manhattan, and this was the best priced for the location...HOWEVER, for a one night stay and the issues that went with it, it's not worth it. First, we had reserved online, however, when we got there, there was no record that we had made reservations. Thankfully, I printed them and... more

We like to stay in the nieghborhoods away from uptown when we come to new york, so this was perfect....within walking of chinatown, little italy, soho, all of them. there was a subway stop just a block over. the hotel itself is a little shoddy looking, but we found it clean and the bathrooms were totaly remodeled and done in... more
