Fodor's Review:

Across from Washington Square Park's magnificent arch, this low-key European-style hotel right in the heart of New York University and Greenwich Village is popular with visiting NYU parents. One block from the very central West 4th Street subway station, it's easy to get to the rest of Downtown's sights. Some rooms are cheerfully decorated—deluxe rooms have a snazzy Hollywood art-deco style, while the standard rooms are plainer with pastel florals and limited amenities. Deluxe rooms come with pillow-top mattresses and complimentary high-speed Internet access. The intimate Deco Room has mosaic floors, elegant mirrors, and a wrought-iron-and-glass brass gate from Paris. North Square restaurant has a jazz brunch and surprisingly sophisticated fare. Pros: park-front location; deluxe rooms are charming; convenient to nearly every subway. Cons: NYU students everywhere; rooms are small.
