Soho Grand Hotel

When people ask me where to stay this is one of my favorite places. It’s not pretentious and has a very cool, calming effect. They even let you bring your dog. So it’s pet friendly too. I had a book opening party for one of my projects and everyone loved the drinks and the bar! A great place, that’s not off the deep end of your wallet. …Have great memories at this place, good vibes!

I can´t rate the hotel since I was only a guest in the lounge and bar/​restaurant three times last summer. But all these times were positive experiences in terms of what I was looking for, which was a great ambiance, nicely dressed people, attentive staff, good food and drinks, perfect music. The Soho Grand is a great spot to start your evening before going to dinner nearby, to a nightlub or just stay there in the lounge and talk to friends (or a loved one) in a comfortable, beautiful environment. I love hotel lounges in New York in general and I have been to many, but unlike some uptight places where they treat you with a bad attitude the Soho Grand has a really good vibe. People dress up of course and I personally like that, but it’s not to the extreme. You feel welcome!
I will for sure go back next time I’m in New York and do some lounging :)

Great bar for upscale cocktails. A popular after work location for business travelers. The drinks are expensive but amazing. I’ve never had anything I didn’t like here. The bartenders are exceptional. The atmosphere is very classy so dress up and enjoy it.

The lobby is nice, and so you’d expect a different experience of the rooms. clearly the place hasn’t been renovated in 20 years. The furnishing of the rooms is horrible, and the aesthetic is not pleasing or welcoming, but rather drab and outdated. It feels like a cheaper hotel that has been given a cheap reno to raise the rates.
But worse than the terrible room décor, it feels dirty. The bath tubs have stains from those old rubber suction mats that you see in cheap hotels. There are chips and scuffs on all the bathroom fixtures that make it look like it wasn’t cleaned properly. I ran my finger over the base board and there was a layer of dust that came off. There was a woman’s hair in the middle of my shower, and a leaf on the floor of the bathroom. Small stuff, but if thats whats visible, I can’t imagine what lack of care goes into everything else.
I tried to get a refund and get the hell out. The desk people were nice enough, but since I booked on Hotel Tonight they were not interested in being accommodating on canceling my reservation. The hotel was described as «hip» on the app, but that really only describes the lobby. Until they update their rooms and cleaning policies, I would book anything else. They are lucky to have a 4 star rating because that really isn’t the case anymore.
Stay somewhere else.

Great bars, restaurant, room service, staff, location, and décor. The gym was well equipped and clean. The rooms are on the small side but welcome to NYC. It was nice being able to link my phone and music to the stereo. Bathroom was nice with a deep tub. Tiny closet. The view was lackluster. However I had a very nice holiday here!

I am a little bias as this is the hotel where my husband and I celebrated our engagement. However the service and experience is so above and beyond.
We had such a lovely time here for our engagement that we decided to come back to celebrate our first Christmas as a married couple. Not only did they put us in the same room (an upgrade from what we had booked), they surprised us with an adorable note, chocolate cookies and a bottle of champagne!
The rooms are small, but very well maintained. The beds are incredibly comfortable and if you are on the higher floors you have a glorious view of the empire state building and chrysler building while lying in bed.
Can’t wait for my next stay.

So… A lot at the Soho Grand is a bit off. I called in advance to tell them I was bringing a doggy, which they allow and I really appreciate. When I arrived that info had not made it to the reception. Ok not a huge deal. But the guy at reception should have mentioned they have a dog park. I had seen it online but there is no other mention anywhere. So back to reception to inquire but that seems like a no brainer to me.
We ordered tea via room service, $ 18. Ok it’s a hotel, that’s their jam. My husband needed to print and their little printing service was down, so he emails the front desk with his needs. They get it half right, though were quick to fix. This morning someone knocked on my door at 9 am. I went to open, no one there. Again at 11 am someone knocks and again no one is there. I’m like, is this hotel in the twilight zone? The major pros are check out at noon and that lovely little dog park.

Stayed at the soho grand hotel this weekend. Rooms small not worth the money. Staff seemed uninterested in pleasing their guests. Too many hotels to stay in. This one not again

**This is a review for the Grand Bar, located on the second floor of Soho Grand Hotel**
With so many restaurants in New York City, rarely do I make a second trip to the same restaurant.. However, I may have found a place that is worth second, third, or even fourth visit — Grand Bar at Soho Grand Hotel.
Located on the second floor of this elegant boutique hotel in SoHo neighborhood, Grand Bar offers exceptional cocktails and delicious food in a classy yet comfortable atmosphere with marble top oak bar, rich wooden floors, and woven leather seating.
The food menu at Grand Bar highlights local, seasonal ingredients. For appetizer, the Burrata is an absolute must. Creamy, fist-​sized burrata — topped with pickled red onion, sorel, and carrots with a sprinkle of chia — sits atop two pieces of kabocha pumpkin. There are cubes of root vegetables, such as butternut squash and roasted parsnips, as well as a swipe of deliciously smooth butternut squash purée, to add additional flavors and complexity to this beautiful appetizer.
Try the Lobster Risotto, an off-​the-​menu item, before it’s gone. This surf and turf risotto features succulent lobster tail and moist sweetbreads, flavored in rich bone marrow broth. The arborio rice is cooked to perfection with right amount of texture and consistency.
The Harvest Vegetable Fazzoletti also highlights everyone’s favorite assortment of winter squash. Made with wide, «handkerchief» shape pasta that is extremely doughy and chewy, the dish consists of everything from cubes of butternut to thinly sliced delicata with crunchy pepita in rich, creamy sage brown butter sauce.
Order a side of Sweet Potato Fries to share. While a little bit of seasoning would have elevated the flavor of the fries (perhaps a dash of salt would have done the magic!), the sweet potato fries were nonetheless a perfect complement to our entrees. The fries sliced just the right size to be crispy on the outside and still maintain the starchy texture on the inside.

Was recommended to check out the bars and lounge on the 2^nd floor by a friend — didn’t stay in the hotel. The doorman was pretty friendly and was probably the best person at his job that night.
Negatives:
* Our first server paid us barely any attention most of the night. We ended up ordering and collecting most of the drinks from the bar for our table.
* Neither the hostess nor server seemed to have a grip on what was going on with finding us a table. When we did get a table, drinks aaaages to come.
* The DJ may have well been a spotify playlist — he was barely engaged in whatever it was he was doing. Usually you don’t really notice this kind of thing but it went in with the general theme of disengagement of some of the staff.
Positives:
* Good vibe and atmosphere
* Prices on the upper side but not too bad for the type of place
Overall:
Between two and three stars.

The atmosphere is incredible. Great R&B/pop music, low lighting, great furniture. All in all this place has a really sexy upscale feel. Oh and I’m pretty sure the hostesses are up and coming runway models. Gorgeous. Everyone dining here is really well dressed too. Plus, they have my favorite drink… margarita with jalapeño infused tequila! Thought it would be a five star experience!
However, the chicken was dry compared to similar dish’s I’ve had. And the service was insanely slow. It took forever to get my food (probably why it was dry) but maybe they were busy. I asked 2 or 3 different people for our check because it was taking forever. When we finally saw our waitress she was still kinda sllloooww.

I enjoyed the stay but only because I paid $ 199 per night. Otherwise if this was a $ 350 room I would be complaining the crap out of the room.
Rooms are good siZe not small. In the city rooms are small in general these were not. Comfortable bed, great view from the windows, bedding supplier however needs to be changed: blanket is as if it’s from 10y ago.
Lots to do in the hotel itself, large downstairs, apples in the hallway (turn on your «Ross») and such.
Service fast.

Soooo disappointing overall. We paid 300 (which was a special???) for a tiny room that was dark and tiny and so unaesthetic or warm. I was bummed by the experience. Would rather stay at another hotel next time.

Pretty disappointed with this hotel. For the price, I expected a lot more — the rooms are tiny and the service was average.
Positives — the room service and the food was excellent. The bar is quite trendy and definitely worth a visit.
Negatives — tiny rooms, miserable housekeeping service, terrible gym and way overpriced for the service. At this price, you’re better off at pretty much any other hotel

This is a simple review. When you stay at the Soho Grand you know what you are getting… a great
Atmosphere, quality experience and you are treated like royalty. I like the location, the staff and the other patrons. My kind of place. Simple. Elegant. Fun.

Booked a 4 night stay here– as we returned to NYC after moving away about a year ago to attend a wedding.
First the Pros:
It’s in SOHO. So tons to do and away from midtown hustle– it was actually serene at times to walk out of the grande during the weekday and just go about your day. SOHO can keep any tourists interested w/​o ever crossing Houston. But that’s about it.
The Cons:
I wouldn’t mind so much if not for the price of rooms here– it’s pretty dilapidated: they «designed» to be old classic hotel– but I think it’s just to mask the age and darkness of this hotel. The Room is small– we asked for a crib — it got dropped and pretty much that was all out floor space.
The room is clean– bed is comfortable but the size of the room is embarrassing. Amenities is lacking — an obnoxious snack bar sits atop a cabinet — plus a mini fridge fridge with very expensive drinks.
Unpacking and putting clothes on drawers was not intuitive as the dresser handle was recessed into cabinets– making difficult to open.
It really reminded me of an old walk up studios in Harlem — walls were old, mustiness permeated the hallways and it was dark.
As for the «Experience» — spotty service — doormen inconsistent in helping. Room service took 1.5 hours to get food up.
They shutdown water mid afternoon — 12−4ish.didn’t notify us: so we ended up going on a reservation at a nice restaurant w/​o showering– after walking around in the morning in a NY summer day… We smelled lovely!
Overall– for the price: if you’re going to charge high– you better deliver. We won’t be rebooking when we return– not worth the final bill after all the hoopla.

This is an amazing hotel by NYC standards! You get welcomed with champagne. The staff is extraordinarily friendly and accommodating. The toiletries are superb! The mini bar and snack bar was all good organic and top notch stuff. The décor was absolutely awesome! Love the modern roaring ‘20s look. The view we got from the 15^th floor was good. The staffs attire was also cool. Love the bow on the waitress dresses. The drinks were really, really good and the ambiance was amazing. We also got complimentary continental breakfast at restaurant. This place was absolutely amazing and my favorite thus far!
Plus Katie Perry was staying at the floor above ours! Whoa!

I’ve only experienced the lounge and dealing with the staff at the front desk so my review is based around that. Though I’ve asked all my friends who have stayed there and they all agree this is their favorite place. It has a secluded feel so it keeps you out of the limelight of the more popular places like Time Square but you certainly get an intimate 5 star hotel.
The bars are beautiful here as well as the lounge areas. There are 3 – 4 different themes depending on what part you’re in but all of them are very clean and stylish. It definitely feels like a place to see and be seen as well. I will argue that drink prices are high. The cocktails are well made but the prices are simply high. But that’s more NYC than it being the Soho Grand.
In all my dealings with the staff in my different visits they’ve all ways been pleasant helpful and informative. The bell hops and doormen are especially good here.
All in all when I have a couple bucks in my wallet to spare for a nice place to stay I certainly plan to go to Soho Grand in NY.

Talk about a trendy f**kin place! If you looking for a modern, (laid back) yet mature spot for drinks, Soho Grand hotel is the spot for you! Went here tonight with some colleagues and I will be back! The place is dimmed lit and intimate. Of course the staff is young and attractive to match the vibe of the hotel (hey it is what it is lol). Overall it was a cool experience.

For the swanky write ups I expected larger rooms and better service. But it’s cool, clean and very comfortable so I can’t complain too much.
The concierge although knowledgable directed us toward a weird restaurant that we left hungry. And this was after an in depth convo about what we were looking for.
My coworker got champagne at check in and I didn’t.
The elevators were extremely slow.
The doorman was slow to open doors and help w bags and cabs.
Still would go back. Felt cool staying there :)

Ein echt stylisches Hotel.
Kann ich jedem empfehlen.
Die Gegen d’rum herum ist natürlich sensationell.
Gute Läden und ChinaTown ist auch nicht weit weg.

The place to stay in NY!
Die beste Bar meines Lebens!

Kleine Zimmer, schönes Designe. Immer noch ein place to be.
Frühstück etwas mager. Location immer noch gut, auch wenn der meat district natürlich hipper ist.

Das Soho Grand vereint Moderne mit Victorian Style. Eine schicke In-​Herberge in Soho, für Leute, die ohne große Umwege ihre Shopping-​Gelüste in den Designer-​Läden der Nachbarschaft stillen wollen.
Die Zimmer sind stilvoll minimalistisch eingerichtet; wer viel Geld ausgeben möchte, der kann sich eine der exklusiven Suiten gönnen, aus denen man eine unglaubliche Aussicht über die Dächer New Yorks hat
