SoLita SoHo Hotel

EuroCheapo Review email this page print this page

The three-star SoLita SoHo Hotel, a surprisingly pleasant addition to the Chinatown area, is a self-described "boutique-style hotel." But the Solita is part of the Choice Hotel chain empire, so don't be expecting an independent or hipster mom-and-pop hotel.

The 42 guest rooms, though small, are ultra-comfortable and very modern with minimal furniture arranged so as not to make the space feel cramped. Despite the scant size of the rooms, the SoLita does fill in the perks: You get satellite television, air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a dual-massage shower head and a bathrobe.

We weren't uber-impressed by the lobby with its electric blue lighting, stainless steel surfaces and other attempts at a chic, sleek look. But the relatively inexpensive price for this location and level of comfort makes it a good choice for someone who wants a little more style alongside their chain-hotel security.

Note: the Solita gets a fair amount of noise from the street at night—ask ahead for a room toward the back.
