Beautiful spacious rooms - very nice hotel. Perfect for both business and pleasure. The only minus is the location - however, you can walk to Times Square in about 15 mins.

Forgot my eyeglasses in my van, Yannick at the front desk went above and beyond to call the parking garage to bring my van to the hotel so I could get them. I needed them as we were going to a broadway show!! Thank you for the outstanding customer service. The room was clean, and comfortable. We had a city view room- the view was amazing.

This hotel was a great experience!! I love NYC, but this hotel made it even better!!! Just out of the hustle and bustle, but not a far walk!! I love it here and I will definitely stay again!!

The hotel is Kimpton through-and-through: classy, contemporary, comfortable. The staff is mostly very helpful and responsive, bright and courteous. Because I like to walk, I'd definitely stay there again. The neighborhood, which is the Western edge of Hells Kitchen, is remote. The hotel is situated in the middle of Manhattan's Auto Row on 11th Avenue (who knew there was one?!), and a vigorous walk is required to get most places. The most convenient landmark is the Javits Convention Center (and several gentleman's clubs, if you're into that sort of thing), so if you have an event there, this is your hotel. There's not really any restaurants super close by (a diner here and there serving the mostly working-class folks who work in the neighboring warehouses) and the hotel doesn't offer much in the way of room service, so if you get hungry, get ready to walk. The good news is, 10th Avenue is changing fast and there are some really good restaurants about a 5 - 10 minute walk away. The Central Park Hansom Cabs and their horses are stored overnight in the neighborhood, so you hear their comings and goings early in the morning and in the evening, which is nice, but walking by the stable buildings there's an unexpected odor... It's also where the major UPS and FedEx depots are, and where the taxi cab dispatchers work; there's even a taxi cab car wash (if you're into that sort of thing...) But, it's just one block from the Westside Highway with it's terrific running and bike path, so that's a plus. And if, like me, you love to walk, all the major Broadway Theaters are up 47th Street. And the A-B-C subway line is on 8th Ave, which isn't too bad a walk.

Excellent hotel. would definitly recommend to others. Professional staff. I am saying there in december as well.

Spotty service; questionable cleanliness; noisy room, uncomfortable bed, horrible continental breakfast (restaurant was under construction so food was brought in from elsewhere). Clearly this is a trial run period but they have a way to go before they are ready for "prime time." Front desk had a difficult time answering the most basic of my questions. Positives were: friendly elevator attendant (not sure that service will be there once they're fully operational), decent wines offered during wine reception, small but adequate workout room, great salad offered for cold room service although it set me back $36. I've stayed at a number of Kimpton properties; this one fell way below my expectations. Will not stay there again

I've been to NY several times, and this is the best hotel I've ever staid at in NY. Clean, super staff, large rooms and bathrooms. The rates where great now during the rebuilding, and we did not notice the rebuilding at all. The only thing that was not 100% is the surrounding of the hotel, but it's just a 10 minutes walk up to Times Sq.

Great hotel. Will be even better when the rooftop bar and restaurant are complete. A little off the beaten path but allows for better parking options. Great staff.

I wanted to try this hotel as I'm fairly sure the prices will rise once the entire facility is open. I checked in very late on a business trip and was given a handicapped accessible room on the third floor - the room/condition was excellent. After I figured out the light switches, HVAC, and shower controls, only then did I realize I could hear a fairly constant drill/power tool - this was Wed. night around midnight. I was too tired to call the front desk to move rooms, so I just cranked up the fan on the HVAC control. If you get a good price (and you don't need easy access to the subway or midtwon for business) grab this reservation! But if you can't check in early, try to make sure to check out the room for noise prior to accepting it. Once the work is done this won't be an issue, and this will be a great weekender hotel, but then these great prices may not last either.

we stayed here after the hotel was only open for 4 days and it was really great. The staff was friendly and very helpful and the trip was just great.

Hotel was clean, and the rooms were actually big. I've stayed all over NYC for business and pleasure, and I will say that the room that I stayed in was by far the largest I've been in in NYC. The hotel was clean, staff was friendly, and the rooms were comfortable. The only negatives were that the hotel had a tiny lobby, which got quite crowded during check-out, and the hotel was located in an area where not a whole lot is going on. I think it's a very good place to stay, has good bang for your buck, and if you value space, this is a hotel worth considering.

We got a great rate during the opening weeks of Ink48. We've stayed there twice, we liked it so much. The location was perfect for us, the staff was professional & personable, and the low-rise surrounding buildings gave us a lovely view of the city & river. While the rooftop restaurant and bar were still under construction & not open, our rooms were bright and comfortable with high ceilings and windows that open. The glass bathroom doors were elegant but weren't exactly soundproof, but that was the only complaint we could make. We highly recommend this lovely hotel.

odd location, quite a walk to find an appropriate dinning spot for a business person. Overall, a great hotel

My girlfriend and I were heading into the city for dinner and a show. I chose this hotel based on it being different than the others. I was very happy with the room cleanliness and layout. Everything served its purpose for the over-night stay. I will list some pro's and con's below to help those in determining it Ink48 is for them. Overall, I would definately stay here again. Pros: Close to Lincoln Tunnel and theater district Large bathroom with shower and tub Great bed with a lot of pillows Very friendly staff Cons: In hotel restaurant and roof bar not completed yet, but should be soon Room was smaller than anticipated, but understandable in NYC Hotel name on building blocked by scaffolding, almost drove by City view rooms were the city views I was hoping for, highly recommend river view Overall, very pleased.

You will love this place. EVERY detail is well thought out, the service is outstanding (better than any hotel I've ever stayed at in NY)and it has a very nice design flair. The IT guy (KEN) went over and above to help me with my wireless internet issues and it saved me as I was there on business. The rooftop bar (which will open in late Nov.) has incredible views of the city. This will eclpise the W in coolness in less than a year.

The room was very nice, however, the lighting was absolutely horrible and the hotel was not quite finished yet. This resulted in wakening by drills every morning. The location was a major bummer! I would recommend staying at a hotel closer to where there's more of an atmosphere. The neighbourhood was absolutely dull...

Everyone was outstanding, friendly and very attentive. I got a room that said free wine package, which I didn't realize meant you could do a free wine tasting in the lounge until 7:00pm. Since I didn't check in until 7:30, I missed it anyways, but Emilie at the front desk sent up a bottle in Zin anyways. Very classy and much appreciated after a long train ride from DC. Will definitely recommend to others and come back when in town.

The hotel is brand new. I think it opened only a few weeks ago. The staff is really helpful although there isn’t a dedicated concierge. The room more than exceeded my expectations. It was very roomy and modern. The hotel also provided a complimentary wine tasting and continental breakfast. Both were very nice. The only things I did not like about the hotel were the thin windows. Our neighbors had their window cracked and we could hear their conversation as if they were in the same room as us. But for the price, you'll save enough money to buy ear plugs.

I suspsect the prices will go up as the hotel is completed with gym and restaurant-bar. The staff was very variable in terms of helpfulness. The room itself was quite roomy and attractive with great city or river views, and the location could not be beat.

this hotel is brand new. everything is very modern but comfortable. I would def stay here again. parking is about $20 bucks for the night is just a few hundred feet away. plenty of good restaurants just 2 blocks away.

The problem with my stay was that they were still renovating the lobby and a few of the top floors. I knew that going into it, so it's tough to ding them for it. Other than that, I think it'll be a pretty good hotel, actually.

Air conditioning was broke. They tried to fix it twice, but no luck. Otherwise, everthing else was great

Loved the hotel & friendliness of the staff. Very shiek.

It is brand new so it is clean and comfy, but if you want all the bells and whistles you need to wait until 2010 or later (when the rates will likely go up). Bar, restaurant, spa, roof deck, etc all NOT OPEN. There were also some maintenance issues in my room (toilet ran all night and didn't flush right; one of the sink drains didn't work) that could be expected with a new hotel. The service was good, but unfortunately I had to wait 15 - 20 minutes at 8 PM to be able to get into my room. The said they were fixing a light, but it was clear they forgot to clean it and had to send someone up to do it when I checked in. oops. Still, the room and bathroom were huge and it was very upscale, comfortable. I would stay again.

Great hotel with attention to detail. From the Frette sheets to the high-end materials used in the bathrooms, this room was a real treat for the weary traveler. Front desk was ALWAYS helpful and definitely in-the-know. I wish I had stayed a few extra nights!

The roof top bar and restaurant was not yet complete. They offered some heavy disounts on the rooms due to that. I think the hotel had only been open a week. Free wine reception in the late afternoon. Very nice and clean.

I really liked the location of this hotel because it was one block from the Hudson so I could grab a run in the AM along the river. Also, we walked to Hells Kitchen for drinks the night before and it is a short walk to Chelsea. Fortunately, the hotel had only been open for 12 days prior to my arrival, so I had a very fresh room. The price I paid was excellent but I am guessing the hotel was fairly empty due to the "newness" and economy.

I stayed at Ink48 on two seperate trips and both were fantastic. My first trip, I was in one of their smallest rooms, on one of their lowest floors, right on 11th avenue (close to traffic nosie). Believe it or not, I didn't notice! The room was still huge for NYC standards, there was still a great view of the city out of my ENORMOUS window, and the noise was barely noticeable (and I am a light sleeper so that's saying a lot!) My second stay with them was even better- I splurged on one of their Hudson View Suites because they were offering such an amazing deal- it was one of the nicest/cleanest/biggest rooms I have ever stayed in! The bathroom itself needs to be noted- there was a shower AND a separate bathtub. I am not a big girl but at 5'5" I am not tiny and when I sat in the tub, the edge almost came up to my chin. So romantic couples take note: definitely big enough for 2! The only con about this place (and its not really bad in my opinion) is that people who are not very familiar with the city might find this hotel a little too out of the way. Its not hard to find a taxi on 11th ave but sometimes you do have to wait a bit and the location is not that close to any touristy things (for NYC standards...). However, if you do know NYC and how to get around then the location isnt bad at all!

About a 10-15 minute walk to Times Square. Beautiful modern finishes. Very friendly staff. Good experience overall.

The staff was very friendly, but the Hotel itself was very unorganized.

Terrific hotel. Sensational views. Very cool.

Their computer systems were down the night I checked in and were still down the following morning when I checked out. They were supposed to email me a copy of my charges which I have still not received 3 days later.

Brand new luxury hotel with super comfortable beds and linens!

Though within Manhattan, and walking distance to Times Square, the hotel feels like it's in some far off forgotten borough of the city until you open the window of your room and see midtown an arm's reach away. Once you know where you are, it's actually nice to retreat the few blocks off the beaten path to find this chic, clean, top end hotel as your refuge from the mighty NYC. It will, within a short time, become one of NYC destination hotels for the fashion, art, and media crowd, who will happily brave the surrounding gas stations and car dealerships to hang out on what will become a little known but very trendy rooftop bar. This is only my humble guess, but I've spent a few hundred nights in NYC hotels over the years, and Ink48 has all the makings of "cool".

The hotel was lovely and the room big, clean and very comfortable. The bathroom was huge with double sinks, soaking tub and separate shower. Everything was beautifully decorated. The negative was there were no hotel amenities as it had just opened. There was no bar, rooftop lounge or breakfast room - just a conference room. I would stay again when it was fully functional.

Modern decor, good room size. The hotel just opened, so I paid aboud 50% of the usual price. At that rate, it was a great deal.

seriously the best service I have seen of any hotel, ever.

This new hotel is a gem as it is conveniently situated close to downtown but still far away from the hustle and bustle. The rooms were definitley cozy and the bed was extremely comfortable. The staff went over and beyond to make my stay troublesome free...I even had someone at the front desk research the internet for restaurants that were walking distance specific to the type of food I wanted. I will only stay here for all my business trips and pleasure..."I wouldn't need anything else".

I put together a "Getaway" weekend for my Honey and I and I was intially put off by the scaffolding but once I walked in it was BEAUTIFUL!!! The room was lovely and the staff was GREAT!! I look forward to going back.

I was the first guest to check out of the hotel I am told and it was wonderful. Very stylish and comfortable rooms. Great views of the city.

Stanze molto belle e comode in una struttura ancora in costruzione e ben lontana dall'essere finita. L'albergo è gestito da personale inesperto e, dopo la mia partenza, sono state addebitate sulla mia carta di credito spese assolutamente non dovute. Non esiste ancora nessun servizio (non c'è bar, non c'è ristorante) e la colazione offerta alla mattina si svolge in una sala riunioni piccola e veramente sporca. Forse dovrebbero concludere i lavori alla struttura, prima di ricevere ospiti.
