The Manner, the Unbound Collection by Hyatt

I recently stayed at this hotel and I have to say, I was really impressed! From the moment I checked in til I checked out, service was fantastic, staff were friendly, very welcoming and super helpful & the food was incredible. Definitely would stay again!

This is a hotel for design lovers. Really beautiful common areas and minimalist but comfortable rooms. Good location in SoHo. The staff is very friendly and the hotel was not busy when I stayed. The Otter restaurant has a somewhat complicated menu but the food was good. The Bar Sloane’s makes great drinks and isn’t crowded. Here’s where the property falls short for its $1000/night price tag: - rooms are very loud, you hear everything from the street and the cold comes right through. Bring earplugs or you’ll lay awake all night long. - no desks or workspaces in the rooms, not even the suites. Don’t come here and expect to work. - sheets are rough and scratchy, quality needs to be improved. - no coffee maker or tea kettle in the rooms. No one wants to get dressed and walk down to the lobby first thing in the morning and get a coffee, just put them in, this is how people live and it’s a major irritation when hotels try to “change it up” just for the sake of novelty. - the second floor common space doesn’t function well for daytime. A collection of couches and low coffee tables are nice for cocktails and socializing, but it makes no sense for breakfast— no one wants to lean over a coffee table and try to eat their breakfast and drip and drop things all over themselves and the floor (which everyone does as evidenced by all the stains on the rugs). Just use the restaurant for a proper breakfast instead. - no gym, no spa, no pool… not really competitive when comparing to all the other 5 star hotels in the neighborhood that charge the same price. I leave feeling like I checked this place off the list: overall glad I tried it, but no need to come back, for the price I can get a better experience elsewhere.
