| lorena01's Full Review: Cosmopolitan Hotel |
My friend and I arrived for a weekend in NYC on Friday morning at 7:30 AM. We had booked a deluxe room (2 double beds) at the Cosmopolitan Hotel for Friday and Saturday evenings.
First of all, the hotel is adorable-the lobby had fresh flowers and was very clean. Secondly, the front desk clerk was able to check us into a room at SEVEN IN THE MORNING. Our room was ready and although check in is not until 11 AM, he was kind enough to give us the keys. We had taken a red eye from Phoenix and were grateful for this.
The room was immaculate. It was amazingly large and well worth $145 a night (special Winter discounted rate booked at cosmohotel.com). There were two chairs, a love seat, an armoire with 2 drawers, and a desk in addition to the 19 (or larger) television. The bathroom was a decent size for an NYC hotel-enough room to open the door all the way while standing at the sink or the toilet.
Although there isn't a restaurant, bar, or gym onsite, there are a few gyms within 1-2 blocks of the property-Equinox being one of them. I believe the daily charge for gym access is $15. There are dozens of restaurants surrounding the hotel-Mexican, Italian, Cuban, and pizza just to name a few. There is also a great Amish market across the street that offers everything from toiletries to hot (buffet style) food-reasonably priced.
I am a frequent visitor to the city but have never stayed in TriBeCa. The staff at the front desk was very helpful with pointing us in the right direction regarding which trains to take, etc. There is a Q, R, N (yellow line) station right outside of the hotels entry and the A,C,E (blue line) station is just around the corner-you can navigate the entire city with less than a blocks walk! This was quite helpful since we were there during a blizzard.
