great location, excellent vibe, bar at night, coffee for breakfast.

The ArtHouse Hotel is in a great location, near subway stations and on major city bus routes. There are many restaurants and shops nearby (including Zabar's deli & bakery, fabulous!). The room was reasonably quiet and everything in the room worked fine. I chose this hotel because I wanted to be within walking distance of the NY Historical Society and Central Park, and it was a nice walk (or bus ride) over to the East Side to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art and other museums there. It's also on a frequently-serviced bus line from midtown, so I was happy to take the Broadway bus rather than the subway to visit Rockefeller Center. The hotel's lobby was always full of people enjoying the vibe, with some live music in the evenings. There's a bakery/coffee kiosk in the lobby, too.

The room and the hotel were great!

Great location on Broadway. The room was well lit with plenty of outlets for technology and a comfortable bed. Great shower. I loved the fact that the bed had a sheet and a duvet so I could add or throw off layers as needed. I don't like it when hotels only provide a duvet which can be too warm.

American Museum of National History is almost around the corner, and all the other great museums are just a short walk away, a beautiful walk across Central Park. A stylish sitting/ reading area with many interesting art books. Live music in the evening adds plenty of ambience (not sure it's every day, but we had it each evening of our two night stay).
