I had a terrible experience with the ridge after realizing that my booking date was wrong within 5 seconds of booking. All I wanted was for my reservation to be moved to the following weekend but they refused to help with this and essentially took hundreds of dollars from me without providing me with a service. The front desk bluntly let m know that the owner could easily help me but won't.

We had called the property before we booked and asked about the rooftop and whether it would be open or not, and they told us it was however, when we got there, there was no rooftop permitted. That was the reason we were staying there and they misled us before we made the reservation. And they would not do anything for compensation on the back end when we checked out I believe this was very misleading and I think there was a lot of people that were very upset about this.

There were plenty of restaurants in the area and we tried a few. The ones we chose turned out to be very good. The first night we had a problem with the bed squeaking whenever we moved. After a few adjustments, it was fine the rest of the nights. Overall, the bed was comfortable and the sheets clean.

Perfect location for exploring the Lower East side. Easy subway access. Staff were very helpful as we needed to leave bags while we toured on our last day. Lobby is to always staffed but they have a sister hotel nearby so they send staff over to assist as needed. Room was small but perfect. Toiletries are barebones but less wasteful so I am good with that. Only disappointment was the roof top was under renovation so didn’t get to see it. Oh well, next time!

This hotel is unique because it is not the traditional hotel. We wanted some where to stay without the cost of the expensive amenities that we would not have used while visiting New York. It was a clean room, very private and easy to get to. We did a lot of sightseeing which meant we were out 80% of the day and just used the hotel to sleep and clean up. It was perfect! There are several restaurants, cafes, and parks to walk through. If you have a vehicle, plan on using a garage, there is no hotel parking. I will definitely be visiting the Ridge hotel again.
