Cosmopolitan HotelEditor's Pick

EuroCheapo Review email this page print this page

The three-star Cosmopolitan Hotel, our only Editor's Pick in Tribeca, is a good, solid choice for the neighborhood. SoHo and Tribeca are terribly dear for hotels—and just about everything else, to be fully forthcoming. Reliable midrange options are very rare in these parts.

The 105 rooms aren't quite characterless, but they do have an identikit feel. Brown, neutral tones and wall-to-wall carpets are common in most rooms. Most televisions are kicky flat-panel numbers. Room size is par for the course, though visitors new to the New York hotel market may find them to be on the small size.

A few new bathrooms sport lovely blue glass wall tiles and modern sinks, though most bathrooms are small and more traditional (read: dated) in aesthetic.

The clientele base consists of many Europeans, with plenty of savvy domestic budget-hunters as well. The building's ground level businesses include the very pleasant Cosmopolitan Café, a diner, a nail salon and a men's barber shop.

Wi-Fi is free in the guest rooms.
