Room was not clean, and was not cleaned during our stay. Despite asking for it specifically 2 days in a row. Only thing houskeeping did was put the same sheets straight on the beds, and new towels. However, we were with 3 persons, and for all four nights we had to ask an extra towel because they putbonly 2 new towels back. Reception people were nice, but incompetent.

Beautiful boutique hotel in the lower east side NYC. Our friends were staying in Chinatown and their hotel was an 8 minute walk from the Allen Hotel. It was peaceful, quiet, clean, roomy for a NY hotel with a balcony. Would definitely come back here.

The staff was excellent. They offered to hold our bags after checkout so we could continue to explore. Some NYC hotels won’t do that! The room was super clean with plenty of surrounding dining options. Great affordable lower East Side option.

I stay here often, and always enjoy it. For me it’s a great area with good transport, staff are wonderful, rooms are bigger and more nicely furnished than you usually find in NYC hotels, and the place has a lot of character which you never find in hotels, period.

Happy with my stay

I stayed on the 8th floor and my room had an amazing terrece (basically private) with great views. The room and overall hotel has a lot of character and unique pieces in the room and shared spaces. The staff were super friendly and pleasant to chat with :) For me, this was a great find and a pleasant surprise as my room was big in general but especially for NY!

Staff were very helpful and friendly. They let us store our luggage before check-in and after check-out. The room itself was nice and clean, and the balcony had a great view of the street below. The location is convenient for getting around by subway and is great if you're hoping to spend time in Little Italy and Chinatown. All the breakfast locations the staff suggested were great. I had no issues with my stay here and I would readily recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a place to stay in NYC.
