The Standard, High Line New York

Lovely hotel, with good quality rooms compared to other 4 star hotels we have stayed at in NY. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Great location, and easy to grab super good food at the Standard Grill downstairs. Gym although a bit small, has the necessary equipment and amazing views.

I liked the location. I lived in that neighborhood in New York’s bad old days. Now it’s a wealthy persons playground. While some people may find that disappointing because it makes the city less accessible to ordinary people, the changes are pretty stupendous. Little island is a feat of engineering. The high line never fails to disappoint, and in some parts of the neighborhood., you would seat you were in Paris.

After traveling through four major cities and spending over 40 hours in the air within just 7 days, arriving at the hotel could have been just another check-in. But Alexis at the front desk and Jonny the bellboy transformed that moment into something special. Their warm welcome, proactive help in accommodating room changes, assisting with luggage, and overall attentiveness significantly elevated my experience. Their genuine care made a real difference.

We love the location for its access to on site restaurants, area culture and ease of transportation. The restaurant and dining areas are fabulous and the personnel are top notch! The floor to ceiling windows are wonderful and allow for great light and stunning views.

Location: the Meatpacking hits the sweet spot, quiet but very central, within 15min walking distance from Chelsea or West Village. Room: we loved the interior design and views to the Hudson river and Little Island. Also the size is quite good for Manhattan. Bonus point for runners: right in front of the Hudson riverfront park and above the High Line. On the off days make sure to check the gym (best views in the hotel!)
