The Ludlow Hotel New York is an exceptional haven seated in the heart of the Lower East Side neighbourhood of Manhattan – a historical quarter where Patti Smith and Bob Dylan once found their muse. Graced with spectacular visions of the couture that is New York City skyscrapers and bridges, the Ludlow materializes into the epitome of cool elegance offering chunky brown leather and velvet sofas alongside thick-pile Moroccan rugs adorning mosaic tiled floors – an enticing retreat from the effervescence of Manhattan lifestyle.
Its geographical offering is a boon, placing you in the heart of New York with easy access to both Manhattan and Brooklyn. Historical landmarks such as the Lower East Side Tenement Museum and the New Museum are a stone's throw away, while the famous Katz Deli stands around the corner. Essex Street/Delancey Street is just a five-minute walk away, while you can easily access Grand Central at a distance of 4.1km and LaGuardia at 15km from the Ludlow.
Rooms are stylishly adorned featuring a variety of 11 categories including the popular Studio King, offering grand space and sweeping SoHo views through factory-style windows. All 175 air-conditioned rooms revere high liaisons of comfort such as premium bedding, 24-hour room service, and thoughtful inserts like bathrobes. Certain units heighten the experience with seating areas designed for relaxation after the day's hustle and bustle, overlooking the Lower East Side. At this accommodation, services hold no bars. With the seamless integration of both comfort and convenience, guests are treated with facilities such as a 24-hour front desk, free wireless internet in public areas, a secured safety system at the property, and additional amenities like Nespresso machines, complimentary newspapers and USB outlets. And when it comes to luxury, the en suite bathroom leaves no stone unturned, offering a deep soaking bathtub and brass rain shower with beautiful marble mosaics adding a remarkable touch.
The culinary adventure at the Ludlow takes on an American twist on the quintessential bistro at Dirty French. Known both by locals and guests, it serves contrary but vibrant classic bistro dishes such as duck à l'orange served with ras el hanout. After dining, guests often relax in the lobby bar and lounge, a convenient escapade for a nightcap.
So, whether you're a seasoned New Yorker or just passing by, a stay at Ludlow always feels like coming home.
