BEST WESTERN Bowery Hanbee Hotel

For New York, this was a very nice room. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Street noise at night from work on the streets was an issue.

Fantastic location. In the middle of Chinatown and edge of Little Italy, so plethora of great/cheap places to eat. A block away from the B/D subway line. Really friendly and helpful staff. Our room was a bit noisy from Bowery St. traffic, so bring earplugs if that would bother you. A great find!

Staff good room clean but VERY POOR BREAKFAST VERY NOISY INTERNET TOO MANY PROBLEMS ONE WHOLE AFTERNOON NO ELEVATORS AT ALL

The facility was clean, the staff was friendly and helpful, the neighborhood was safe. Close proximity to the Little Italy and in the center of China town. The neighborhood is not as refined as midtown or downtown but still nice. I would stay there again for a good price.

Everything was great. Didn't expect a Best Western to be this nice. Room was clean, comfortable, modern, just really nice all the way around. Staff was great and helpful. I would definitely stay there again and recommend to others, especially for the continental breakfast that also includes a waffle maker, cereal and pastries, not just toast and water.

Noisy (furthermore our neighbors were noisy). Good location downtown.

The rooms are super clean and comfortable. The staff is great and so helpful. We make an annual trip to NYC and would not stay anywhere else!

Have stayed at the Hanbee a few times now. I like the location and the cleanliness and amenities. This time, however, their broadband was down the whole time I was there. A bit of a downer and something which, if it occurs again, will cause me to book elsewhere.

It was really expensive during fashion week, but otherwise I have no complaints. The room made sense, it wasn't super noisy. The breakfast was OK. The room was kept clean. This was my second time there. When I was there before, it was noisy because of road construction outside. Much better this time. Also, I don't think these guys gave me good information when I asked about getting a cab. They said finding a cab at night could be difficult and I had to use the car service that charged $72 for JFK, which I proved wrong by stepping outside and catching a yellow cab easily. Maybe I was just lucky, but it had a taste of an in-cahoots kind of arrangement. Sorry hotel team if I'm wrong.

I just got back from a two-week vacation that ended in NYC, where we stayed at the Bowery Hanbee Hotel in Chinatown. A few things travelers should know is: First off, the hotel was VERY clean, comfortable, and the customer service was AMAZING! When we got there, I requested that our pre-reserved king room be in a particular part of the hotel, and the staff, namely [...] and [...], were beyond accommodating. TO be honest, every staff member we spoke with throughout our stay was just as helpful and friendly. They were friendly, helpful, and always took the time each day to provide us with a map and directions as to which subway to take to get to where we wanted to go. The first night, our a/c wasn't working and I informed the staff, who, without hesitation, upgraded us to a fall-over-from-shock-worthy king suite, which had two TVs, a table and four chairs, a nice bathroom, a sofa and two comfortable lounge chairs. AWESOME ROOM! The street itself wasn't all that clean, and always smelled like fish, but the vibe in the air was vastly interesting. If you get the chance to stay at this hotel, don't hesitate if you're looking for an memorable stay in NYC. If you're looking for an area with 24-hr street life, go somewhere else, since this area is primarily made up of small businesses. There are no bars here on this street, but it is NYC, so walk a little, and you'll find yourself in the center of something, without question. As far as our experience, all I cal say is I'm glad we got to experience Chinatown like this, because in truth, visitors to the city never see the real Chinatown unless they stay there. WARNING: We took a bus tour that gave us some helpful insight into how to decide on any particular restaurant. He told us that every restaurant (by law), must display in the window, the health department's official cleanliness grade for the establishment. MOST of the restaurants we passed by in the area where this hotel was was graded "B". Stay clear of any restaurant that is graded anything but an "A". Trust me, as good as the food is, eating at a B is not worth it. If only I'd known about this before I ate at NY Noodletown. Great food, bad reaction.
