Hotel Gansevoort Review

Don't you hate it when a younger sibling shows you up? Unfortunately, that's the case at the Gansevoort, which is looking a bit frumpy since the Standard opened a few blocks to the west. Still, there's plenty to like at this chic Meatpacking District pioneer, starting with the sleek rooms that overlook the city or the Hudson River, a rooftop deck with a 45-foot heated pool that remains a draw for locals and tourists alike, and even video-game systems delivered to your room for free. The furnishing themselves are starting to show signs of wear, though the Exhale spa works much better now that it doesn't have to double as a lounge. What was once the high-end restaurant Ono is now the scaled-down Tanuki Tavern, but it's still serving Asian fusion fare.

2010 Fodor's 100 Hotel Award Winner

The Gansevoort—a glamorous, aloof beacon in the trendy Meatpacking District of New York City—is known for having a constant pool party on its rooftop deck (during summer only, of course). The terrace is the place to be in the city, with its free breakfast, heated 45-foot pool, myriad terraces, and swank lounge area. A superb choice for urban poolside lounging.
