Highs & Lows

  • Super attentive customer service was the first thing I noticed. Met with a smile and warmth at check in, all staff continued to be incredibly friendly throughout my stay

  • The infrared sauna at the wellness spa was everything I’ve ever needed after a long day at work

  • Le Coucou's dining experience blew me away. Left my belly happy and my mouth still watering

  • The sleep was deep - can I take the bed and pillows back home with me?

  • Located in the heart of Soho, the area can be quite noisy. But if you keep the windows closed you can barely hear a peep

  • It was just sad to see disposable cups at the minibar and in the bathroom and single use toiletries

  • Pre-Arrival & Arrival Experience

    Always excited about a trip to New York. The booking was incredibly quick and easy on their website powered by Selfbook. I was also able to call and arrange both a reservation at Le Coucou restaurant and the wellness spa with a breeze

  • Future Forward

    11 Howard partnered with a number of nonprofit organizations that give back to the community including the Global Poverty Project, Conscious Commerce, Thrive Market and FEED Projects. They also use one-click bookings powered by Selfbook. It was just sad to see disposable cups at the minibar and in the bathroom and single use toiletries.

    Little nightspot called The Blond with a DJ and sexy cocktails
