This was my first visit to Ink48 and all I can say is wow! The room was amazing, huge, with views of the Hudson and the Intrepid. Had dinner at Print and it was delicious. The Press lounge had amazing views of the city. It is off the beaten path, but after the hustle and bustle of Manhattan, it was... More

We try and stay in Kipton hotels when we travel. In New York last year we enjoyed a week at the Eventi Hotel. This year we read about the views from INK48 so we booked eight nights and we were very happy with the hotel and especially the location. 11th Avenue and 48th is ideal for easy access to the... More

Stayed at the hotel for five nights, and it was a great experience. The hotel's location was not in the best part of New York, as it was opposite some car garages, fueling station and car dealerships, but it was still central enough. I took a room with a view of the New York skyline, and it was amazing! Rooms... More

a great boutique hotel. Nice sized rooms with huge bathrooms and fun animal print robes. great rooftop bar - but you have to ride down a separate elevator each time to get there. nice wine hour each evening -- and they served up a fun drink as an alternative. a great restaurant in hotel. It's not too far from Times... More

As with many Kimpton hotels, Ink48 has a funky style, but I was not prepared for the bathtub to be *in* my room! Nothing wrong with that - this company does things well, including ensuring high quality of cleanliness and finishes, but this is not a Marriott... Really great views of mid town, and easy access to the promenade along... More

This place was clean and welcoming. Room was comfortable. It was fortunate that there were two sinks because one drained very slowly. The large tub was a good ammenity. Fast room service. Also there was a complimentary wine hour which was a plus.

We love the Kimpton Hotel chain and have stayed at 4 different hotels, 3 of which were in NYC - we booked at the 4th Manhattan hotel for our stay May 11-13, 2012. We were not surprised to find a warm welcome as always. The hotel is located a little out the way 49th and 11th but a block from... More

Staff were ok, i kept felt we were being stared at and felt awkward walking in and out reception desk when certain staff was there. however one lady from reception desk was... More

I had one of the best hotel overnights in recent memory at Ink 48, based on location and amenities. I find that staff at all Kimpton properties go above and beyond to make you feel incredibly welcome but when I got to my room I was not prepared for the incredible view that I was met with. I was facing... More

Great hotel -best rooftop in the city (better than the Andaz). As it is close by the Hudson river one gets the whole NY city horizon. Rooms are great and go for a suite as a bath in the room facing the NY skyline is worth the slight extra. Location is just west of center. 5 minute walk to Times... More
