Location was prime, minutes walk from the metro, shopping, and popular bagel spots. Staff and service was great and quick to assist. Cafe lobby: 10/10 iced lattes and smoothies. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect location and nice hotel. Roof is beautiful and a hot spot. Only thing that caused less then a full 5 star rating was a server on the roof top who was miffed that only water was ordered and showed it 100% in voice and attitude.

Great room and great amenities. Enjoy a complimentary morning exercise or drinks at their stunning rooftop bar. Will definitely keep Public in my back pocket for the next time I return to NYC! Affordable yet luxurious, located near the heartbeat of the city but still felt relaxed. You’ll come for the aesthetic, and be back for the convenience!

Please don’t waste your money. Staff is non existent, room is not comfortable, it is not worth what you pay for. I know the location is supposed to be worth it but honestly it isn’t. So expensive for a tiny tiny bedroom where you get two towels for two people. It’s a self service hotel now so good luck getting the staff to help you with anything. The security guy at the hotel signed for a package I had delivered to the property and lost it, a $350 USD package ! Even though I alerted the hotel before hand about the delivery and it was signed by Gabe, their security guy, no one could give me an answer about my package, and it was lost. Truly such a bad experience.
