New York hotels near African Burial Ground National Monument

Pros: Everyone was amazing they even got my dresses from my car that was valeted and brought them to our room. It was overall a great stay. Thank you !

Pros: The gentleman who checked us in was wonderful. The room is beautiful. The hotel itself is stunning. 10/10 on architectural design, design features, and overall ambiance.

Cons: However, what was strange was that the person who checked us in told us he had upgraded us from a deluxe king to a premium king room, but the pictures online look like the room we are in is still a deluxe king. Also, we are just facing a wall, which is a little bit of a letdown. Finally, the walls in between the room are thin, as I awoke to the cleaning people vacuuming the room next door at around 7:30am.

Pros: Everything! The ambience and beauty of the hotel!

Cons: Nothing!!

Pros: Very good. Liked my room very much, very "posh"! and comfortable. Loved the fact that so much of the original hotel has been preserved, or replaced appropriately.

Cons: The lighting in the elevators is almost non-existent! Couldn't see the buttons, & couldn't reach to place my room card. Also, no grab bars in the shower stall (altho the staff assured me that some rooms do have grab bars. Why not all? Finally, the lighting in my room was really low - 40 W. bulbs in all the lamps. Got into bed & couldn't see to read. Aside from that, all very nice.

Pros: Beautiful architecture and rooms. Very clean and extremely kind and helpful staff. The bar room in temple court is gorgeous and the cocktails were delicious. I felt like I was taken back in time.

Pros: Hotel room decor is fantastic.

Cons: Luke on reception was not welcoming, this is my 4th stay at this hotel, most hotels would say welcome back no not Luke, I arrived at 9pm and asked if the restaurant Augustine was still open he said not thinks it’s closing without even ringing to check. I went to my room went on line and booked a table at Augustine for 930pm when I get to the restaurant they said they take order till 10pm.

Pros: Exquisite

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Restaurant - meal in Temple Court was very good. Building itself is impressive inside.

Cons: Being asked for $150 a day for ‘incidentals’ upon arrival. Reception staff were not welcoming. No coffee/tea making facilities in room.

Pros: The staff was helpful and responsive. The hotel was really beautiful and very clean. Turndown service with water and chocolate was a nice treat. We would definitely stay at the Beekman again!

Cons: Everything was perfect.

Pros: I had an amazing stay. The staff were amazing and all my experiences were five stars. The location is in the financial district which I loved since it’s downtown yet quite. You are near the blue and green line making it easy to get around. Also you are a five minute walk (if that) from the Brooklyn Bridge.

Pros: The Ally Cat is a very cool club. It's great that hotel guests have special access. The bathroom was very spacious. We enjoyed the bar downstairs and the ambiance there. The front desk and concierge was very helpful and nice.

Cons: No view in the room but I'm not sure any of the rooms have great views.

Pros: Very comfortable bed. Excellent bar area

Cons: Deluxe room that faced a courtyard. Very little natural light

Cons: The shower was not properly cleaned. I did get a different room But then I had a security concern and security told me they would provide a report but didn't bother even though I was quite concerned. Not did a manager bother to get in touch to address my

Pros: Gorgeous hotel with amazing views over Battery Park

Cons: It was tough to find the hotel, even with my GPS...tight turns in a congested area.

Pros: Everything!!

Cons: Nothing bad about my experience.

Pros: Wonderful service everywhere. David at the front desk was very friendly, approachable, and accommodating. There was a server at breakfast (whose name I didn't get!) who was so kind as to bring me peppermint tea when I wasn't feeling well the morning of our stay. The view was incredible. Really a perfect location!

Pros: The views from the “statue of Liberty” tools are outstanding. Also the rooms and bathrooms are HUGE!

Pros: location was perfect, room service was super, it was right on the water, great biking, amazing nearby restaurant, couldn't ask for more.

Pros: The view and the whole area was awesome. Loved check access to subway. The food trucks all around were delicious.

Cons: There was no mini fridge or microwave for leftover food. Didnt get the room i asked for. Wanted to be higher up. But they got us in three hours early.

Pros: beautiful location

Cons: loved the stay

Pros: It has a great view of the Hudson and Battery Park. The staff were very friendly and always willing to answer any questions.

Cons: The windows in our room were a bit dirty but that’s really the only complaint.

Pros: All fabulous. Love the location. Kevin the barman was a master of his trade and made us feel super welcome. View of the Statue of Liberty and New Jersey skyline were superb and the room so comfortable. We’ll be back!

Pros: Best room service I have ever had!! The wait staff GREAT !! ALL OF THEM !!

Pros: The room with a view and the excellent staff.

Cons: No

Pros: Staff friendly. Good location.

Cons: The room was extremely small for a couple with luggage. Basin is outside the bathroom which is very odd. One of the fittings in the bathroom detached itself from the wall and fell directly onto my wife's left foot leaving it badly bruised and with a gash. The hot water takes for ever to come through.

Pros: Great breakfast buffet, really set us up for the day. Delicious options from fresh fruit and eggs to salmon on a bagel. We had a bunk room which was small but comfortable enough for our needs.

Cons: I can't really think of anything!

Pros: Actually the location was the only thing I liked. The hotel was not able to even get the most basic standards in terms of customer service right. Really really disappointing.

Cons: So we were three friends, staying at Arlo 2 nights. We came early, around 10am, so check in was not possible as it was too early. Which is fine and which we knew, so we just dropped our luggage. We came back two hours after check in time, but still, one of the rooms were not ready. They mentioned they gave it to another person who checked in at 3pm - although we were there at 10am. They should have taken a note. My room was still full of trash when I entered, half full paperclip with could coffee, empty bottles and a note for the former guest... So I went down again and got a new room. My friend who's room was not ready dropped her luggage into my room as she needed to change before dinner. After I cam back from dinner at around 10pm I tried to get her luggage transferred from my room to her room - the receptionist said "I'll be up I 5 minutes and do that". No one showed up, after 30 min. I called reception, I explained to the lady on the phone and she promised to send someone immediately - no one came. So after an hour I went down to reception, but no one was there. So I went to bed as it was already late. My friend didn't get her luggage until the next morning. There were a few more things which I don't go into detail here. Overall they should not say they do something when they don't. At check out my invoice was not ready so right now I am waiting to get it via email - also here they promised "you'll get in within 30 minutes via email". I still son'z have it 2 hours later. So I am not only disappointed, but almost angry about the situation. For a room that cost 300 USD per night I expect a different service level. Oh, and then they told us they have a happy hour and our room rate includes that - but as we wanted to have a drink, we were told that it is not included. What a rip off.

Pros: Lots of freebies! Upon checking in, they gave my friend and I each a small bottle of champagne and told us that breakfast was complimentary as well as a happy hour with free beer, wine & cheese from 5:30-7pm.

Cons: The shower was horrible. We were given a handicap room, and the shower was very narrow. There was no space to move around, and water got sprayed across the whole bathroom because there wasn't a lip. The shower head also fell on my friend's head mid-shower

Pros: Everything - the staff is really friendly, available and happy to help. The room was very cool and modern - The bed are very comfortable. The location is perfect, close to the Hudson river. Finally the roof top bar is a plus with a very nice view on the Hudson river.

Cons: The fact that there is no closed place for the toilets in the room is challenging when you travel with friends...

Pros: The breakfast is incredible!! And the courtyard is so lovely. We were there when it was all decorated for the 50th anniversary of Woodstock. It was just adorable. Staff is amazing!!

Pros: Amazing location and clean, comfy room!

Pros: Very nice hotel

Cons: No

Pros: The hotel rooms are small but cleverly furnished. Well supplied. The facilities are great: good restaurant with outdoor patio, rooftop bar, lounge, 24 hour grab-and-go food bar. And candy shop. Out of the way but hip downtown location. Good for young and youngish people there for vacation or business.

Pros: Rooftop bar awesome. Happy hour for guest spot on.

Pros: The staff was incredibly helpful from the front desk to the morning coffee person to the restaurant and happy hour. Location was fantastic. Lots of places to walk and easy to catch a taxi or walk a short distance to the subway. The downstairs had plenty of inside and outside room to sit and relax, write, read or work. The funny thing is - I tend to stay away from boutique hotels, but this stay may make me more adventurous in the future.

Cons: Rooms were just a little small, but we weren't in them that much.

Cons: Street noise at night but it is NY

Pros: Room had great view. Bathroom was large with a great soaker tub. Room was large by NY standards with a seating area and an additional desk.

Pros: Friends of us were upgraded on checkin but we were told to call back every day then gave up on day 5. The bathroom is all black - tiles, basin, toilet, shower-curtain & no natural light so impossible to put on makeup.

Cons: All black bathrooms. No shower cap provided.

Pros: Didn't have breakfast. Had to leave too early.

Cons: There really wasn't anything I didn't like

Pros: The room was a good size for NYC, it even had as small balcony (no view though). The bed was extremely comfortable and the staff very friendly. There are plenty of restaurants and reasonably priced bars nearby. Neighbourhood felt safe

Cons: The shower was by a clear window which I found strange as the buildings opposite could see in. I did not ever see anyone though and it soon steamed up once shower was turned on.

Pros: Great value for money. Location, staff, decor, shower. Everything

Pros: The bed The service The bathroom

Cons: The coffee

Pros: Overall our stay was pleasant. Great Location! Close to good cafes and eateries, Shops, Williamsburg bridge, Wholefoods etc and a short 5 minute walk to the Subway. The room was big enough, we booked the double queen room which was perfect for our week long stay. The Hotel was clean, and it was lovely to come back to fresh towels, clean room and a turndown service in the evening with fresh cookies!

Cons: I think the photos looked better online, I also asked for a room with a view as we paid a premium price but unfortunately our view couldn't of been worse staring into a building wall opposite us... we didn't even want to use the balcony. The bathroom we saw online had a view/window...but ours had no window and was so dark that we could hardly see anything! the lighting in the room wasn't great either / was very dim. Also, I asked twice for a kettle to make a cup of tea but they never delivered this / the room was not equipped with one.

Pros: Location is great for hipsters

Cons: No coffee maker kettle promised me early checkin for my daughter birthday then wouldn’t let her check in and it was prepaid I was arriving later. No long mirrors promised to move us then said no room has long mirrors promised kettle then said no kettle super gross stains on sheets promised to change didn’t change til I asked 3x Wanted to charge for later check out no fan in bathrooms very dim lighting for putting on make up. ( mother daughter) small but adequate gym.

Pros: Staff person in cafe Medi was the best! She treated us like family!

Cons: Narrow corridors, but that can't be helped.

Pros: We stayed for a total of 4 nights. Firstly, the complimentary wine upon checking in was a pleasant surprise. The room was spacious, bed and bath robe was so comfy (especially the robes!!!) The aesthetics of the room were simple but classy, to our delight. In the subsequent days after our room had been cleaned we received complimentary fresh cookies, and one of the days our toilet had a drainage issue which they resolved instantly. The staff were all really pleasant and helpful, which was definitely an added bonus. The area around the hotel has many fantastic cafes and dessert places, and the location was relatively quiet and safe as well. Definitely recommend staying here!

Cons: The walls are a little thin so on some days we could hear our noisier neighbours..

Pros: The location was close to public transport that was fabulous. Restaurants and shopping - terrific also Staff pleasant

Cons: A few things were not working when we arrived but no one there to take fix so we lost a night.

Pros: Basic king room was $395 which would have been out of our price range. We payed $243 through on of the online sites (Hipmunk, kayak, booking.com, etc.). Stylish and comfy. Roomy for NYC.

Cons: We were unable to get a 2nd night at a reduced rate (it was a Saturday) so we moved to another hotel in the financial district that was even better - though not in as exciting a neighborhood.
