“Perfect weekend Getaway”

Reviewed 21 May 2013 NEW

Took my teen daughter, for her birthday, for a day/night in Soho to shop and dine. Upon arrival at the hotel we were greeted immediately, wished my daughter a happy birthday, and checked us in quickly. The concierge was extremely helpful in directing us to great shopping. After checking in, the concierge remembered us every time we came and went... More

“Worthwhile jewel in Soho”

Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

We spent a week in May and were impressed by every facet of the hotel. Nice large and well appointed rooms with modern furnishings and a light cheerful decor throughout. The young staff are friendly and helpful, and there are numerous pluses that make up for the NYC prices: free internet, coffee and muffins for breakfast, the airy gym on... More

“Simple, Refined and Professional”

Reviewed 16 May 2013 NEW

We stayed in NY for five days and had an amazing stay at The James. Last time I was in NY, I lived there, so it was a bit strange to be a 'tourist'. The location is perfect: close to the A,C as well as the major hubs of Canal St. It's right on the border of TriBeCa, SoHo and... More

I have stayed at the James in NY a number of times since shortly after it first opened. I continue to be most impressed by the views of the city from even the lower floors. I also very much like the understated simplicity of the hotels design and decor. The staff continues to be friendly and helpful. I also appreciate... More

The staff at the James sports an extremely low-key yet maticulously accommodating profile both as individuals as well as a group at large. My stay was mandated by a need to vacate my apartment during the remediation of a water leak that led to some mold growth, and already senstive for some time now, I needed a place short term... More

“A great hotel walking distance from Soho and Tribeca”

Reviewed 25 April 2013

The James is a very classy modern hotel. The rooms are very well equipped and bright. The roof top bar and pool are a nice place to rest during the day and a cool place to have a drink with a superb view on lower Manhattan. The location is almost perfect between Soho and Tribeca.

Dear elieliberman, I wanted to personally thank you for the rave review. You pointed to some features that make The James New York truly special, including the modern guestrooms evoking industrial Tribeca and warm Soho. JIMMY rooftop bar is a wonderful destination to catch the sunset, especially with a craft cocktail in hand. Thank you again and I look forward... More

“Still very good indeed”

Reviewed 24 April 2013

Stayed in January 2013 and enjoyed it then (see previous review). Returned in April 2013 and enjoyed it again. Central reservations (which are off-site) are a bit of a nuisance (especially if the reservations agent/clerk does not have great familiarity with the hotel) but, apart from that slight hiccup, the experience was very good indeed. Lobby staff are excellent, welcoming... More
