The Hotel 91 - New York

Very nice hotel. Room was clean, a bit on the small side, but adequate. Room was on the side next to the Manhattan bridge, which made the stay a little noisy with subway trains passing, but the noise was not disruptive to sleep at all. Chinatown neighborhood was fine, safety was not an issue. Would definitely stay here again.

The room layout, lack of cleanliness and location was not commensurate with the cost paid.

I reserved a room for my mom on a recent visit. The location was great, she slept through the train sounds without a problem, and she thought the room was very comfortable and incredibly clean and well-maintained, and that the staff were helpful. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others.

Its a nice place to stay. Just wish they served breakfast

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The room was immaculate, which is one of the most important issues for me. The downside (which I knew before booking so not an issue), is that the hotel is next to the train and at times the room was noisy. Also, the room was very small and the lighting extremely dim. Overall, we were quite pleased and wouldn't hesitate to stay here in the future. It […] would also help if they served "real" coffee in the morning, rather than "instant coffee crystals"..........that little touch would be a big plus! Read more

I was very pleased with our stay. The staff was very nice and helpful pointed out where you were and what way to go. On the first night our light went out in the bathroom, they fixed it the next morning no problem. I was nervous that it would be noisy because of the subway that is right next to the hotel and our window but it was a soft roar and actually […] soothing because I sleep better with white noise and it was perfect. My neice who is a light sleeper didn't wake at all from it. The room was clean and had plenty of room to move around with all of my obcene amount of luggage and with everything we bought we were not cramped at all. The bathroom was a little dingy but I bring my own towels etc, so that was not an issue. Our room was cleaned everyday not bedding changed but remade which is fine. The F train is about 3 blocks and even at night was never and issue I'm from a small town and still was not scared to walk around. The place next door to the hotel stinks and one elevator was a nightmare but I would stay there again without any hesitation. Be aware that the cabs do not really travel through there unless they happen to drop someone off and we found that the cabs were unwilling to take you to the hotel and never even knew where it was so be prepared to know your way around. Also The Everest is an American diner a few blocks away and the food and family that run it was amazing we ate there everyday once a day. Hotel 91 was great:) Read more

wierd to have reception on 2nd floor. Noise was not a problem but no window except skylight in room was unusual. there was food spilled on carpet and chair which was not cleaned up prior to our arrival. Clean but not spotless. It was ok. Coffee and tea in morning was nothing to wake up for.great proximity to subway and Chinatown.

Good location near the East Broadway station and plenty of Chinese restaurants near by with fair price.

Clean, well maintained building--although it is a bit hidden among all the other stores smashed together in Chinatown. Yes, we could hear the subway pass at night, but it wasn't that loud (never kept me up). The location was also near the metro (4 min walk to nearest stop, about 30 min to Times Square via metro) and some great Chinese bakeries. I wouldn't […] call the area "safe", but it is safer than other areas I frequent in big cities. I would stay here again. Read more

Great value, would stay here again. If you don't know NYC, maybe not best location, but very clean, very accommodating front desk staff.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I wouldn't commit to a weeks stay here but a single night is good. I found it ok at least it is better than shared accommodations in other locations so you trade privacy for a ok hotel near a very loud train/bridge.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Save your money and go to Hotel Mulberry instead. It ranks among the worst hotel I have ever stay at for the money. Rooms with windows are all facing the subway which you can almost reach out and touch. Rooms that are the other side of the building do not have windows so you feel completely claustrophobic. Hotel is so basic there is nothing to write […] home about. Read more

VERY GOOD

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Centrally located. Not in the best neighborhood. Service was good. Hotel was not the cleanest but bearable. Not a corporate hotel so there were no amenities but if you are just using the hotel to sleep, it's worth the money. Pictures on this website are somewhat accurate. The hotel is very chinese themed not as modern as the pictures let on.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel is located right next to a train track. I could look out my window and see one go by almost every 5 minutes. You get used to it after a while but it is very disconcerting if you are not used to city life and it can be a little disruptive to sleep if you are sensitive to noise. The staff are really responsive and are quick to help or fix an […] issue if needed. It was very clean and they were helpful in pointing out where you can catch the subway. Go out for coffee though and if you don't have to use the nearest parking structure, don't. Read more

We stayed there 6 nights in order to attend the annual field conferences/events. We are on a tight budget but did not want to bother our friends this year nor hop around among their sofa beds. We knew what we're going into in regards to the location - the hotel is in the middle of the bustling Chinatown with Manhattan Bridge right next to it. Front […] desk staff (especially Nina) was very helpful, having us choose among 3 room options; bringing in an extra chair, some hangers, etc upon requests. Free wireless worked fine, just sometimes slow. Recommend you bring such personal items as slippers/shower-caps which are not included in their amenities. I think it's not fair to complain much for the competitive price to stay in a room with a private bath in Manhattan. With the right mindset (it's not Hilton/Sheraton), this place should work for business travelers. Read more

The train was about 20 feet outside our window and ran all night long.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel is conveniently close to the D line (a 5 min walk) and is in a great neighborhood/location. The rooms are a decent size for a NY hotel and well kept but nothing special. The only concern is that the hotel is beside train tracks so some rooms will experience intermittent but muted train rumblings. A concern for light sleepers like my wife […] but they graciously moved us to another room. Also, the internet was a bit spotty. Still, I recommend this place. Read more

Rooms were clean and staff was pleasant. We had 2 rooms. One room was a bit too close to the bridge and woke people up, while the other room was on the opposite side of the building and we couldn't hear the train/bridge at all. The hotel was cheap with very (uncommonly) large rooms with 2 queen beds. The main inconvenience was China Town itself. It […] was a few blocks in any direction to get out of China Town and the hotel is surrounded by the infamous China Town smell. Luckily we were here in the winter and things weren't baking in the sun, but the smell was still nauseating at best. Any non-Chinese cuisine was a 15ish minute walk away. Not too bad and I may just be spoiled, having stayed in more convenient areas of the city. Overall if you can tolerate the smell, aren't a super light sleeper and don't mind walking a bit (you shouldn't... you're in NY), this hotel is a good value. Read more

The room was clean and comfortable, but, as is typical of other hotels in NYC the room was a little small. However, the bathroom was roomy with a full sized bathtub/shower. I came in after dark and was not familiar with the area. There is no parking or parking valet service at the hotel. I ended up parking about 1/2 mile from the hotel. There may have […] been something closer, but, like I said it was dark and I didn't know the area. And, I had a great deal of trouble getting a taxi in front of the hotel. Not that many cabs on the street and they all seemed to have passengers. I walked several blocks away to flag down a cab. Oh, and while it didn't bother me, because I can sleep through most anything, there was a train right next to the hotel that probably ran by every 5 mins. Even knowing the downside of this location, I would probably use it again. It was clean and was reasonably priced for being in NYC. Read more

You can only stay at this hotel if you aren't bothered by loud train noise. This is my second time at the hotel and this room was significantly louder than last time. I sleep through the train just fine, but it is not a whisper. Also, the hotel is located in Chinatown and fairly far from many of NY's sites. Still a good value and nice staff.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Room was really small and dated. The bathroom was gross. I was glad I only had to stay there one night. It was a good price but I would have spent the extra money on a nicer room to make the trip more special. The bed didn't have a real comforter. It was just covered with two sheets. On a positive note, I felt very safe walking around in the area.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Although the room seemed clean, it was bare-bones. Very small TV in the room , the coffee set-up in bare "lobby" disappointing - only instant. The Entrance was sparce and confusing and Not the nicest area of town.

Met our needs for travel.

The staff was excellent! The Hotel was clean, zen-like and very clean. The area is cool and we had a good time walking around and eating breakfast at a nearby park, watching people doing tai-chi and Chinese dances!

Genuine Expedia guest review

Not located in a nice neighborhood. The towels were not very clean. The most disturbing thing about this hotel is the loud noise of the trains passing by. It is extremely close to the station and trains wake you up very frequently. It doesn't worth the price you pay, that's for sure.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Did the job for the budget I had. Clean and comfortable. NYC is super expensive anyways.

Genuine Expedia guest review

I usually stay further uptown, closer to where my meetings are. But this time, hotels were so expensive in that area, I tried to save my company some money by staying doiwntown. Never again. The hotel was virtually empty, and I can see why, The room was tiny, there were stains on the run, in wifi went in and out and the TV didn't work properly. Some […] channels were fuzzy with static, while others gave me a picture with no sound. It might be fine for someone, but not me. Read more

Glad we decided to stay here after reading some of the posts. I was worried about the noise from the train but we were on the 4th floor and it wasn't loud at all. The place was clean and staff was nice. We will definitely stay again.

Clean hotel but horrible location. The noise of the bridge is simply unbearable

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The price was a little bit higher than expected but the location is very well, in the heart of Chinatown. If you like the Chinese food or Italian food, the restaurants are nearby. The room is small and seemed clean. The manager, Mr. D, was very helpful. We also like one of their services --providing hot drinking water and coffee in the lobby-- you don't […] have to do it on your own after a long tiring day. Although the check out time is 11am in the morning, if you still have to take care of some business during the day, the hotel allows you to store your luggages until you are ready to leave this area. It was very convenient for us but it would be good if no extra fee for this service. The hotel is right by the bridge and you will hear the train passing all the time, but if you are a city person and also exhausted from the whole day's sightseeing, the noise may not bother you too much.

the people working the hotel were considerate and nice (especially the fella operating the elevator as the main elevator was broken), but expect a hotel wedged under the manhatten bridge and in the middle of a cluttered and smelly china town. but i'd say that's part of the new york experience!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Appreciated cleanliness and comfortable beds & friendly staff. Would have been nice to have a small refrigerator in room. Location in the heart of Chinatown & within walking distance to Little Italy; close to subway access to get to other parts of Manhattan.

The hotel is located in the heart of Chinatown right next to the Manhattan Bridge. It is in a busy, vibrant neighborhood and I could walk to Little Italy and South Street Seaport. The room was small and basic, but that is common in NYC at this price. I looked out the window and the bridge is RIGHT there. See the picture. The traffic noise could not […] be heard since they have thick walls and two sets of windows - not just double pained glass. However, they run subway trains across this bridge and you can feel the vibration and hear them if you are listening. I am a city kid, so I did not mind, but if you are looking for a quiet retreat this is not your place. If you want to get into the bustle of New York - this is a good value. Read more
