My fiancé and I were pleased with how cozy, elegant and polished the hotel is! As advertised, we truly feel that we were able to experience the city like a true New Yorker.
Great food. Hidden gem of this neighborhood

Very cozy lounge/bar area inside the ludlow hotel. Came here after dinner to get dessert and a drink. The lemon tart paired very well with the espresso martini. Our server, ?Colleen, was very hospitable!

I have given this lobby bar so many chances and it continues to fail. I live in the neighborhood and love to stop in here to the cozy lobby bar - I consistently send my parents here to stay when they visit, however, this 3 strikes and you’re out. Don’t bother going here unless you’re a vip hotel guest. I waited around for 10 minutes to get noticed and was then directed to a hotel guest table and then when I ordered told I couldn’t sit there. The waitress was extremely unaccomodating and unfortunately this is 3rd time this has happened to my husband and I when we come here - we get told by one waitress we can sit at the table then get told no. Extremely unprofessional service and team here. Last time we will be here and no longer sending guests here.

Another hidden downtown treasure is the Lobby Bar at the Brown Hotel. Everything is great and the Hot Brown is a much try! All the food on the menu taste great and the food is the very consistent. The Lobby Bar offer a casual dining experience on the second floor of the Brown Hotel. If you want a more fine dining menu with the comfort of the Lobby Bar space, ask to see if they English Grill menu is available (which it usually is).

The Ludlow Hotel's Lobby Bar is chic and comfy. Beautifully and eclectically decorated in the style of Mid Century Modern Brazilian designer Percival Lafer its interior is unique; low slung sofas and chairs in a variety of shapes and configurations create a puzzle-like floor plan and so many options means you can nearly always find a spot. Look up to admire the wood beamed ceiling and chandeliers. If you don't already feel like you're cool everyday, you are definitely cool when you're here. The drinks menu is exhaustive however the food menu is very limited. Absolutely worth stopping in for a drink when in the neighborhood.

we popped in because I read something recently about a martini that takes this bar two weeks to prepare.... unfortunately the bartender was not aware of this fact. perhaps the story in timeout was old?this is a small bar inside of a hotel lobby basically, The seats could not be more uncomfortable.The bartender was super sweet and we enjoyed dirty martinis that were "frozen" but it was basically just a martini made with a very cold mix that was pre-made and put in the refrigerator.deviled egg was deliciousthe scallop dish as well.the ambiance is just way off and not comfortable.

The Ludlow is such a refreshing departure from the usual New York hotel experience. We came in early to drop off our bags and they immediately offered to check our room to see if it might already be available. It happened to have been cleaned already, so we were able to go unpack and get comfortable right away for no extra charge. The room was spotless, the beds were comfortable, the view of the city was amazing, and everyone on staff was so kind and accommodating. It totally felt like a home away from home. Be sure to check out Dirty French off the lobby or order some room service. Some of the best food & cocktails we had on our trip. No complaints! Will definitely be back.
Staff was very friendly and check in was easy. The Queen Loft room was great, nicely appointed and had a nice selection in the mini bar. The bathroom was awesome, very stylish and the bath tub was the highlight. Will definitely be back again, I’ve been to the restaurant before which is also awesome, and we had great room service this time as well.
Amazing stay at the Ludlow! Super friendly staff at the desk, delicious food, comfy beds. Was perfect for my business trip and excited to head back. The bathroom was a great size and it had a lovely shower. Luckily I got a room with a terrace which was an added bonus and was a great space. Thanks to the team for a great stay!
The Ludlow is now my go-to NYC hotel — this was my third stay. Whether I’m in the city for work or pleasure, I am finding The Ludlow my home away from home, mostly due to the efficiency of the check in process, the helpfulness of the staff (not too pushy, but there and informative if you have a question or need a rec), the comfort of the rooms (not to mention the amazing water pressure!), and the location (walk to the Village, Soho, terrific people-watching, cool Lower East Side vibe.)
The standard of the hotel was overall great. I stayed on the 15th floor with a lovely view of Downtown Manhattan, loved the gym at the top floor, it's on the smaller side but it has everything you need. The Lounge area was nice and inspiring to sit and work by day, and buzzing by night. Location is also perfect. Will be back!
