“This hotel is fantastic! The rooms are spacious, clean and well decorated. We even had a large terrace to enjoy. The lobby is artsy with a sexy lounge feel. And the staff was the icing on the cake. When they found out it was our wedding weekend they went above and beyond to treat us like royalty. We will definitely stay at The Ludlow again!”

“Absolutely loved my stay at The Ludlow Hotel and will definitely be back. As a bit of a germaphobe, cleanliness is a huge deal for me, and my room looked, smelled, and felt spotless. The natural light was incredible, the bed was comfortable, the soaking tub was a dream, and I loved that all of the windows opened for fresh air. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and went above and beyond throughout my stay- especially Omar, he’s superb! The lobby is cozy, beautifully designed, and always felt clean and inviting with the fireplace going. We had lunch in the outdoor garden space and while the food was just okay, the ambiance, sunshine, and plants made it worth it. Room service was quick, luggage hold was seamless, and the hot tub filled up fast. The gym is small and can get crowded, but that's my only real complaint. Overall, I can't wait to come back and would absolutely recommend The Ludlow, especially to my aesthetic women who appreciate beautiful design, natural light, and a cozy luxury experience.”

“We had a great experience here. It's an elegant hotel. We had a reasonably sized room with an ample shower. The bar and restaurant are quite popular and have a cool vibe. But more than anything, our special appreciation goes to Omar, one of the managers, who went out of his way to improve our stay -- thanks!”

“My husband surprised me with a birthday stay at “The Ludlow” Hotel, and it was such a wonderful experience. Our room on the 7th floor had a beautiful view and a comfortable size, and we were welcomed with a complimentary bottle of champagne and a sweet Birthday card, which made the stay feel very special. The hotel has a charming European-style atmosphere with thoughtful details. The service was excellent. I requested a tea kettle and later a bubble bath kit, and both were delivered quickly and beautifully prepared. The bathtub itself was definitely a highlight,so relaxing! The location is perfect, surrounded by great cafés, restaurants, and bars and very close to SoHo. The only small notes were that the mattress was not comfortable and bad was noisy. Also the bathtub shower head had a slight leak. Otherwise, everything was lovely. Overall, a 10/10 stay and I would love come back again.”

“Incredible stay for my birthday. The hotel is absolutely gorgeous, the ambiance is out of this world. The customer service was also outstanding. We had an incident that was promptly resolved by the hotel staff, very competent workers. Location is good and close to many subway stations, cute vintage stores, coffee shops, Whole Foods, and many more! We will definitely be making this a regular stay when we visit NYC.”
