This was our first trip to NYC.
The hotel has a 5 star rating and indeed the entrance looked grand & trendy, lovely staff, super rooftop lively bar and pool, but when it came to the rooms I couldn’t see much of a 5 star feel..
Hotel positives:
Comfy large bed
Decent view & mini bar
Cool rooftop bar
Rooftop pool

Great location
Lovely bathrobes
Negatives:
Bedding had holes in the pillow cases
No complementary tea nor coffee in the rooms
Wonky toilet seats
Rusty bath tub
Plastic cotton buds
Room was a bit basic and small
out of everything , for me the lack of tea/coffee was a real let down, a real must have.. for the money we spent we did expect the hotel to pay a little more attention to detail.
Overall a pleasant stay in a nice location.

Loved It
Nov 11, 2024Tom BSagres, Portugal
Located in a great spot in the Meat Packing District, this hotel was one of the nicest we have stayed in in NYC. The room was warmly decorated and comfortable and the staff was outstanding. We will be returning and will recommend it to friends and family.
Best Hotel in NYC

This is the best hotel in NYC! The location is absolutely perfect. Access to the high line, The Whitney and Chelsea Markets could not be easier. Enjoy a stroll around Little Island which is fabulous. Walk to West Village and SOHO with access so many cafes, bars and restaurants . The hotel is well kept and rooms very luxurious. All staff are great…

Overpriced "Luxury" hotel with great location but subpar service

There were 3 main issues; 1 major, 2 minor. The main issue was housekeeping threw away one of my custom ear plugs which cost ~175-200 to make as an audiologist takes a scan of your ear and sends it to a lab.

There were 3 main issues; 1 major, 2 minor. The main issue was housekeeping threw away one of my custom ear plugs which cost ~175-200 to make as an audiologist takes a scan of your ear and sends it to a lab. I did mention this to the desk reception but they didn't seem very interested and said they would call the room if anyone found them (they never did since they were thrown away). Also the shower was cold on the first morning and didn't get hot, and one of the elevators stopped on the maintenance floor instead of the lobby when L was pressed, getting myself and another random guest stuck there for like 5 minutes as we kept pressing L and it would just continue to open the doors to the maintenance floor. Obviously though, having my custom ear plugs thrown out was the main issue.
I chose to stay here because of its proximity to the Google NYC office and it's a recommended partner on our internal pages, but I would likely not stay here again after the experience.
I would have sent this via the guest survey that was sent to me, but any time I tried to submit the form returned an error: "Internal Server Error - Read". This experience sums up my recent stay at Gansevoort.

Very overpriced for just a 'decent' hotel
Oct 29, 2024mafro_mc
I was told that the pool (perhaps the biggest draw of the hotel) was closed for refurbishment upon arrival - this was not communicated to me ahead of time. A courtesy free meal or partial refund would have been welcome.
The room itself was ok, but certainly not worth the extortionate price. I am genuinely shocked that this is rated a 5 star hotel…

I was told that the pool (perhaps the biggest draw of the hotel) was closed for refurbishment upon arrival - this was not communicated to me ahead of time. A courtesy free meal or partial refund would have been welcome.
The room itself was ok, but certainly not worth the extortionate price. I am genuinely shocked that this is rated a 5 star hotel - it's the worst 5 star hotel I've stayed in. The shower curtain was something out of a 2 or 3 star hotel.
I would not recommend staying here above other similarly priced hotels in Manhattan.
One positive is that the fitness centre (open 24 hours) is quite good, and has lots of equipment that some other hotels often do not have. The sushi in the rooftop restaurant was nice, but again overpriced - there are better sushi spots in Manhattan.
