New York City's SoHo Grand Hotel is on the lower east side of New York, half an hour from La Guardia Airport, and 35 minutes from JFK Airport. SoHo's creative roots first emerged in the 1880s, when the textile industry established houses in this industrial district, and its destiny was further woven when area architects began using cast iron as structural and architectural elements. This foray helped create eye-pleasing, large, airy structures from dimly gas-lit rooms structurally supported only by wood columns. In the 1950s, a trend of beauty drew artists looking for a place to call home. With a nod to the past, the SoHo Grand's lobby features a suspended cast iron stairway to the 2nd floor, where guests can indulge in people-watching or intimate conversation. Artistic eyes will delight in the SoHo Grand's lobby, which is cutting edge chic with sixteen foot windows draped with muslin and velvet, a mercury glass ceiling unexpectedly accented with chicken wire, and upholstered pieces in a mix of textiles from 1800s patterns to modern fabric designs. Commissioned works by SoHo artists are displayed throughout the hotel's public spaces and guestrooms, and some are available for purchase. Guests can dine in the opulent Grand Bar & Lounge or in the art-filled Gallery restaurant.
This 17-story hotel has 369 guestrooms decorated in stark hues of gray and coffee, and the rooms feature decor inspired by the Arts & Crafts Movement. Beds with chocolate-colored leather headboards are covered with Italian Frette linens and silk bedspreads. Bathrooms recall Old New York with subway-style ceramic wall tiles, grey and white hexagonal floor tiles, and pedestal sinks. Toiletries are by Blisslabs and Privé.
A celebrity haunt, this hotel is also just steps away from galleries, shops, and trendy eateries.
