This hotel is relatively close to a few different subway stops, nearby to a couple different bars and restaurants, and if all else fails there is a McDonalds across the street. The property is small but comfortable, the front desk people were always very kind. My only complaint is that the heater in the room did not work 100% of the time. In fact it would be in the 30's outside and my heater would continuously pump out cold air. There were times when I left the "heat" on all night and turned it up all the way, the heat WOULD kick in eventually, after hours of cold air pumping in. But it seemed like when housekeeping came in during the day they would turn off the heater and I would have to start the process all over again. I called down to the front to complain about this and they said someone would come check it out, I don't think this ever happened. I would recommend this only for spring travel, when heat is not required.

I agree with all of the good reviews Hotel Indigo has received; however,there are details that in an average hotel would be totally acceptable, but in a hotel of this caliber... For example, while my room was clean, quite nice looking and the bed VERY comfortable, there were nicks in the paint, the floor tile in the bathroom shower was very discolored. There was no hotel information book--where ice machines are (another small problem--only 1 ice machine and it is in the lower level). I had to call for its location and then call for how to use the television, what was available on TV for additional charge, etc. The Keurig cups offered only 1 tea. I asked housekeeping to give me two on my second day. They didn't. The staff was friendly.
Probably the best example of the uneven quality: yes, the amenties were Aveeda, and yes there was a bathrobe, but the bathrobe was not plush terry, but rather a cotton waffleweave.
Again, very small details, butI expect almost perfection for the scores people have given the hotel, and I have styaed at hotels in NYC that deserve the 4 1/2 to 5 stars they get because they attain that level of excellence.

We come to NYC every few months for work, and tried Hotel Indigo this time. I love it! It's conveniently-located, a bit funky, great service and they pay such attention to detail. From the amenities in the bathroom, to the Keurig maker, to the free WiFi, to the bathrobe provided, to the modern yet cozy interiors - all just little extras to make your stay. The staff has been superb as well, more than eager to exceed your expectations. We also tried the restaurant downstairs (China Latina or something like that) and it was really good. An interesting mix of Asian and Latin food, again, with great service. Will definitely return here next time.

Stayed at this hotel for 3 nights.
- Rooms are clean, and by NY standards, large enough
- Staff is very friendly and helpful
- Rooms are quiet - I requested a quiet room and got a great king bed room on the 16th floor overlooking the street. Although you could hear the noise from nearby establishments when in the elevator, and a bit in the corridor, once inside the room it was very quiet.
- Location is great - 1/2 block (and NY blocks are short) to the subway, about a 10-15 minute walk to Times Square, lots of nearby places to pick up breakfast & lunch, short walk to nice places to eat dinner.
- This hotel is on the same street as many of NY's warehouse flower and plant shops; those stores line the streets with their goods, so it makes for a pleasant arrival from 6th Ave to the hotel.
- Nice amenities - Single serve coffee cup in the room, business center computer where you can print a boarding pass, free wifi in the room, complimentary newspaper at the front desk (NYT on Sunday!). There is also a small fitness room on the lower level.

All in all this hotel was a great choice and great value. I would definitely stay there again.
