Hotel openings in New York City came nearly every month (if not more), but this is one to really take note of. Hotelier Sean MacPherson (and the man behind The Bowery, The Jane, and The Marlton) is set to open up his first Lower East Side hotel this June dubbed The Ludlow Hotel. The hotel vibe? Totally Lower East Side cool — a bit gritty, a bit urban but still charming, the 184-room spot will come with 20 suites (the “Rockstar” suite will surely be a popular choice with a huge terrace) that all have impressive New York City skyline views and witty touches like Maison Martin Margiela bath mats. The on-site restaurant will have a distinct French flair, and the hotel is ideal for those looking to do New York City like a local and less like a tourist (a stroll around the neighbourhood will find Katz’s Deli, Yonah Schimmel’s and the Tenement Museum, plus loads of lively bars, clubs and vintage shops, and a quick walk to Williamsburg Bridge).
Expect this to be New York’s new hotspot come June.
