Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
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.

currently undergoing renovations and the rooftop was closed
Loud construction and was not notified before booking that the rooftop and common area was closed. We had multiple stains on the ceiling and in the bathtub (don’t even want to know what it was) toilet roll holder was broken, not as easy to access fresh towels and sheets as we had imagined. Would only stay here again if i absolutely had to.
So while I have no issue with basic, this was a little too basic. The AC was a noisy window unit, there was no type of daily room cleaning, and absolutely NO amenities. Had I known they don’t clean the room I definitely wouldn’t have booked there. Also, the beds were terribly stiff and uncomfortable. It wasn’t a terrible experience by any means, but I definitely won’t be back.
Really nice place and will be a choice for my frequent NYC stays in the future. Easy accessibility to public transportation, restaurants and shopping. Room was clean and had a good sized fridge and microwave and was quiet. I didn’t give it 5 stars because their rooftop deck, which is highlighted in their description of the property, which I was looking forward to using, was closed for maintenance and closed before I reserved and never mentioned in the confirmation email. Wouldn’t have changed my mind about staying there, but would’ve appreciated knowing about it beforehand.
The rooms are set up with secret ( no so secret pannels .
They are going in your room and taking what they please toiletries clothes . And the back of the safe is removable and ges in to a wall cubby partially and unnecessarily
No

I like the good service. Especially Jasmine she was awesome. However some of the staff are rude over the phone. I was asking for some important info on the hotel over call, and the man at the desk was highly rude and kept hanging up prematurely. Also it looks dirty and the room I was staying at has holes in the curtain. Just get that, the shower handle fixed cus it would turn off when I tried to have cold water, like it was screwed on right, and I also wished I could have seen the rooftop. The free snacks were awesome tho.
Only complaint was that the rooftop is closed until 7/31. I wish I would’ve known before booking… that was a big reason for booking. Otherwise average hotel not bad. Great location to the subway - F train will take you uptown to Times Square & Central Park
I could not stay here! It was pretty clear there was blood on the walls which you can see in the pictures! The room looked nothing like the pictures, the room was absolutely disgusting!
