Thompson LES Hotel
190 Allen Street, New York City, NY, USA
Neighborhood: Manhattan - Lower East Side
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Over the last few decades the center of gravity of hipness in New York has tracked steadily to the south and east. And given how long these things take to make, it’s natural that only just now are we beginning to see high-end boutique hotels on the Lower East Side — among the first wave, the Thompson LES, on Allen just south of Houston.
This being Manhattan, space is at a premium. Everything’s modestely sized but impeccably designed, and packed with all the necessities — very much in keeping with the Thompson aesthetic. It’s an approach that works particularly well here; this is still the Lower East Side, and anything more upmarket would simply be overkill, in a neighborhood where most of the hotels are residential ones.
It’s uncharted territory for hotels, perhaps, but familiar ground for nightlife. The Thompson doesn’t just take advantage of the local buzz, it aims to contribute its own: the new flagship restaurant is Blue Ribbon Sushi Iyazaka, a Japanese tavern serving sushi and drinks into the wee hours, and Above Allen, the open-air bar with the retractable roof, is bound to become a downtown fixture for members and hotel guests. And when the weather agrees, an outdoor pool bears the visage of none other than Andy Warhol — not many other downtown hotels can say something like that.
Please note: The outdoor pool at Thompson LES operates seasonally and is closed during the winter months.

What I liked:
The location is great - walking distance to all sorts of interesting restaurants and streets.
What the hotel could do better:
Be prepared the rooms look much larger in the photos. They are nicely appointed but not generously sized.

What I liked:
The curtesy of staff
The room
The view
What the hotel could do better:
Perhaps prevent lots of mixups such as coming in with items that were not ours, and technical issues in the room - fire place and Television, espacially if we are in a penthouse.

What I liked:
The rooms were well planned out, modern, clean and had brilliant views.
What the hotel could do better:
I stayed on the floor above the bar and it was really, really loud for most of the night. I didn't care because I was so tired from being out all day, but if you want some quiet time, ask for a floor away from the bar.
