Towering above the grimy storefronts and tenement buildings of the Lower East Side, the Hotel on Rivington gambles on an unlikely location and extracts what will be, for a certain subset of travelers to New York, a weighty payoff. This is one of Manhattan’s last wild neighborhoods, and won’t appeal much to the luxury-goods travelers who stay along the fringes of Central Park, or the business travelers who pack the Midtown hotels — but for the younger clientele with culture-industry business in the downtown arts districts, it offers a set of unique charms.
It’s an incongruous sight, this sleek glass tower sprouting above its low-slung brick neighbors, but you can’t argue with the results — the views from the rooms, even on the middling floors, are extraordinary, taking in the Financial District, the downtown bridges, even the Midtown towers, depending on your room’s orientation. And the rooms themselves reflect the neighborhood’s jaunty, youthful tempo, with au courant accessories such as flat-screen televisions, iHome stereos, on-demand movies and complimentary wi-fi, along with low-tech charms like Frette linens and robes and, in many rooms, private terraces from which to take in the jaw-dropping views.
In-room spa services are available, though they’re very nearly rendered superfluous by the stunning Bisazza-tiled bathrooms, complete with deep Japanese-style soaking tubs and Davines bath products. Chef James London, who studied under Jacques Pépin, helms the hotel’s own CO-OP Food & Drink, serving an unexpected (and unexpectedly successful) combination of American brasserie fare and sushi. Meanwhile the shops and restaurants of Soho are within easy reach, and the Lower East Side has its share of attractions, including truly gritty dive bars, hipster hangouts and music venues, as well as a new crop of more upmarket nightspots.
