11 HOWARD
Luxuriöses, trendiges Hotel mit schönem Blick auf Manhattan und einem tollen Bibliothekscafé in SoHo.
Minimalistisch, trendy, luxuriös - ein typisches Hotel in SoHo! Dieses hier wurde Anfang 2016 eröffnet und vom Designstudio Space Copenhagen entworfen, das für die Einrichtung zahlreicher Restaurants, darunter das berühmte Noma, verantwortlich ist. Der Stil ist also eher zurückhaltend, im Gegensatz zu den protzigen Einrichtungen anderer SoHo-Lokale, mit Möbeln in sehr europäischem und zeitgenössischem Design. Ab dem fünften Stockwerk hat man einen schönen Blick auf Manhattan. Vergessen Sie nicht, einen Abstecher in das wunderschöne, hochmoderne Bibliothekscafé im zweiten Stock zu machen.

However, the minus-one star for me is how inconsistent the staff's knowledge about the policy. For example, I was greeted by a staff with wrong knowledge about how Amex experience over the phone. While I was there, I was also confused by the wording of "providing breakfast" and "breakfast on us". Apparently you have to "register" for that first. The hotel should work better on looping employees in and have clearer policy guidelines.
This is a PSA: do not stay at the 11 Howard. Like many of the reviews, I went in thinking this is a 5 star hotel, given that's what it says on google. Let me stress that if anything, this is a 2 star hotel. It's absolutely disgusting. I've stayed at plenty of nice, 3 star hotels and I wouldn't even compare this to that. When you walk in, there is a curtain separating the lobby from a Club... the check in desk is essentially a folded picnic table with a dude working off of a personal laptop. There's no doorman and no security. The room is even WORSE - chipped paint, damaged chair, damaged sink, handprints on the walls, dirty carpet... I have literally no idea how this place gets away with saying it's 5 star. This should be marketed as a 2 star hotel for $100/night. DO NOT STAY HERE
Here are the things that particularly bothered us:
• The room was tiny and felt crowded
• We found a dirty sock from a previous guest in plain sight in the closet
• The tablet woke us up at ~1am announcing that it had low battery. It was not simple to turn off and this really disturbed our sleep.
• A welcome email from the hotel promised us “one of the most unique welcoming services in the industry”. This sounded quite impressive but we certainly did not experience this. When we asked someone at the front desk to explain this to us they couldn’t.
General feedback:
• The hotel and rooms are dated. The dim lights in the narrow hallway on the 9th floor did not show how old and dirty the carpets were. The door did a poor job of sound insulation and we could hear people in the hallway and the elevators clearly while we were in the room.
• The technology in the room was far from what I’d expect at a premium hotel. The TV didn’t have any streaming services available and the tablet was one of the least intuitive devices I’ve used in recent memory and was practically useless.
• Plastic cups for water in the bathroom did not feel premium at all
