Terrible experience. The room was disgsuting and had staples holding the walls together in the bathroom, tons of dust in corners and broken furniture. I was charged $40 a day for amenities. Those amenities include a “gym” (a treadmill, a bike, and a dumbbell rack that is missing 40% of the dumbbells and the dumbbells that ARE there have broken handles and grips). They have a rooftop that is FINE. So essentially we paid $120 for water bottles which seems outrageous. Staff would not accommodate for these issues. AC was good though. This place has gone down hill when the Canadian firm purchased it.

This hotel was fine, excellent location. But it definitely needs a refresh. Looks like it really hasn’t been updated in 10 or 15 years. They could use new carpets for example and other touchups that would make it look a lot nicer. Some of the fixtures and furniture are a little dated too.

Place was a great location in SOHO but wish the AC was Colder and Cooled Faster. We turned the A/C on Full Blast Cold And It took around 5-6 hours for the room to get comfortable. Luckily we were sitting by the ac so that helped but was a bit surprised it took so long.

Do not stay here! Everything about how they market this hotel is a lie. Many of the pictures online are stock photos, and there is zero “elegance” about it. Quite the opposite! The interior is badly run down and surfaces are corroded. It markets a lounge that is nonexistent. My bathroom had severe mold in several places, holes in the walls and ceiling and peeling wallpaper. The water in the shower had a brown tint. It is also located on the street to the tunnel so it is loud at all hours and deadlock traffic in front of the hotel so you have to walk a few blocks for a cab.

The hotel was very clean and the staff were helpful. But, there was no ice bucket or refrigerator or cups. The air conditioner was very loud. The clothing storage area and the carpet showed signs of age. Unfortunately the bar was being used for storage and there was no area to purchase snacks. The lobby was very small. I did like that there was free water available. And the hotel was in walking distance of many places that I visited in SoHo. Also, the beds were very comfortable.

Nice and clean room in a good location. Staff was very friendly and helpful, and they give out unlimited free bottles of water to guests that was a nice little touch. There’s also a rooftop terrace that has a nice view that we very much enjoyed at night. The only slight negative was that there’s no refrigerator in the room, but that’s not a huge deal and everything else was great and would definitely stay there again.

The picture on the website and Expedia make the property look much newer and nicer than it was in reality. Everything felt old and dirty. We had to change rooms because the first one obviously hadn’t been cleaned and there was a pubic hair on the toilet. The bathroom also had black mold galore. For the price point I felt ripped off.

Misleading pricing due to a mandatory “resort fee” that was only disclosed after booking, adding significant extra cost and making the stay far more expensive than expected. The hotel condition was also disappointing compared to photos, with dated rooms and unreliable Wi-Fi. Overall poor value for money and not recommended.

We recently stayed at SoHo 54 Hotel and had a wonderful experience. Sean at the front desk was exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. The entire staff was accommodating and attentive, always willing to assist with any questions or requests. Their hospitality made our visit to New York City even more enjoyable. Thank you to Sean and the team for making us feel so welcome!

Truly a bone chilling experience. I wouldn’t wish this establishment on my worst enemy. When we arrived, our initial room was soaking wet all over the floors- which we were told was because they “wash the floors”…right. There were hairs all over the washroom.

When they moved our rooms, they did upgrade which was appreciated. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was once again, harrowingly putrid. Grime in every corner and a bathroom so filthy and poorly maintained i can’t even describe.
Couldn’t recommend this less. Our expectations were high as the price is reasonable but this was…. Something else.

The hotel was older than we expected, it was maintained well, but did have some bumps and bruises still noticeable. The shower design was a little poor with water splashing over a good portion of the bathroom floor, but at least not running out into the room. The air conditioning did struggle during the day, but did catch up at night. Definitely not reading the correct temperature because 66 was not cold and the fan was a little loud. Hey, exhausted by the end of the day of walking and site seeing, so very tired and still slept. View was not the best on the 9th floor, so get higher if you can. Walkable and relatively safe location, 9 to 12 minutes to the nearest subway stations. One bad thing, the entrance to the Holland tunnel is nearby and if it's backed up, there is a lot of honking cars nearby.

The bathroom was a petri dish. Felt cleaner riding the subway than talking a shower with the amount of mold in the corners of the bathroom. The shower head also sprayed and leaked.

Checking in was ok but staff looked underwhelmed and did not speak very friendly.

One thing we did appreciate was the free water bottles at the check in desk.

Don't have high expectations.

The hotel was clean and had a great location, and the staff was helpful and friendly. There were no significant issues at all. But the property was not well maintained. The room had peeling wallpaper and torn carpet and damaged furniture. And the shower made a very loud whistling noise when in use. But aside from those issues the room was very clean and there were no other problems. However I don't know if I would stay here again given the poorly maintained room.

Our room was clean, comfortable and the location was perfect. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the amenities were great. The hotel is aging, so the wallpaper is not all intact, and the carpet could use a refresh, but what could feel dirty at other hotels still felt well cared for and clean. The bed was very comfortable, and we had maid service every day. We loved the free water at the front desk: I initially thought we wouldn’t use it, but it was a lifeline when arriving back to the hotel after a full day of exploring. The fitness room is bright and clean, the lounge area is absolutely charming; my daughter opted for hot chocolate at midnight and a staff member checked to make sure the water was hot enough (it was). I was also grateful for the solid bathroom walls—too many hotels have gone with the frosted glass partition styles recently. Coffee maker in the room, ice bucket with ice machine on the next floor, plenty of armoire/night table/desk space. The hotel is small enough that we never had to wait for an elevator or be in a crowded one. The rooftop lounge is a rare treat, too—it’s not a bar and it’s available to all guests, not just top-tier ones. We took a couple of meals up there and enjoyed the view. There’s a great little bodega with a grill on the corner with excellent and reasonably priced food; bagels in the morning at the cute park across the street, and a corned beef on rye on the hotel rooftop in the evening? Perfection.

Situated in Soho near both villages, Chinatown, Little Italy, and Tribeca. This hotel provides excellent service while you explore the city. The terrace on the 19th floor has a view to go with your coffee. Many fine Restaurants are a stones throw away from the hotel. You are one block away from excitement in all directions or you can hide in the backstreets. Enjoyed my stay very much.

This place is coasting on its prime location. It's in serious need of a renovation. The rooms are small and outdated. The air conditioner is loud and ineffective. The curtains don't fully close. The TV didn't even get the major networks. The rooftop looks like it's been forgotten. Despite the great location, I would not stay here again.

Stay somewhere else. The first room they put me in smelled like cigarette smoke. I asked to change, and they put me in another room two doors down that smelled like cigarette smoke. Guessing the floor used to be a smoking floor. The curtains were broken, the frame around the door was broken, the wallpaper in the room was peeling, and they have a lock on the thermostat. All in all, it's giving roadside motel vibes.

A few minutes walk in any direction to some of the best restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and shopping in the world. Easy access to the Subway for other NYC adventures. Our room was quaint, and the hotel staff were incredibly helpful and kind.

I had to call hotels.com, and even then it wasn’t until I escalated to a manager at hotels.com that the hotel moved me.

The new room was fine. Nothing like the photos on the site but at least it was clean.

Soho 54 is located on Watt Street, just before the entrance to the Holland Tunnel (to New Jersey). There is almost always 3-4 lanes of bumper to bumper traffic, with drivers honking their horns constantly. One night there was construction in the tunnel, which led to a backup and a crescendo of horn honking. The air conditioning is wonky, just seems to blow air constantly, and there is no refrigerator in the room. It was not a pleasant stay.

The location and price for Soho54 were/are both great - near NYU is ideal for our purposes. The room was clean, the shower was great. It could probably use a bit of love -- the paint and carpet look a bit tired, our door took an extra pull to get it shut, but we just wanted a clean place to shower and sleep and Soho54 fit the bill perfectly.
One thing I absolutely hate (and this is not unique to S54), you see the price including all taxes and assume that's it -- then on check in you get the 'resort fee' or 'amenity fee' or whatever they call it - an extra charge for the exercise room in the dungeon and the coffee machine in the room. Really? At $40/night, should have new coffee machines and exercise equipment every week! I hate sneaky fees, and 'amenity fees' are exactly that.
