Great location near West Village/SoHo with excellent views, but overall The Dominick doesn’t live up to its advertised five-star status or price point.
I stayed in a suite at The Dominick hoping for a true five-star experience but was disappointed in several areas. While there are positives, too many issues suggest it falls short of what should be expected at this level.
Rooms lack basic amenities such as make-up removal wipes and cotton balls. The hotel’s restaurant closure wasn’t mentioned in advance, and there were no complimentary minibar items or late-night room service. In addition, guests must pay extra for a reliable Wi-Fi connection. The blackout curtains, which should provide a dark environment, let in too much light, making it difficult to sleep in. Furnishings feel slightly dated and worn, and elevators were consistently slow and overcrowded. Although the staff were pleasant, poor traffic management at the entrance added to the frustration.
For the nightly cost, you’re likely better off choosing a property that consistently delivers a five-star experience, such as the Four Seasons, at a similar price point.
