Most first time visitors to New York will no doubt want to take in all the famous sights, and the hotel is perfectly placed to do that. The West 4th St/Washington Square subway stop is 30 seconds away on 6th Ave (for lines A, C, E, B, D, F, M) and the Christopher St/Sheridan Sq stop is one block further on, at 7th Ave (for lines 1, 2, 3).
Don’t be too keen to rush off though. The immediate vicinity is still just as interesting as it ever was. Greenwich Village up to and especially during the ’50s and ’60s was predominantly a magnet for artists, activists, radicals and bohemians, and although the area has been significantly gentrified – with business people, upper middle class families and celebrities now calling it home – it retains a magical atmosphere and still plays host to a pulsing streetlife scene.
Other than gazing from the rooftops of skyscrapers or sailing around New York harbour, pretty much everything you could ever want to do in New York, you can do right here. Unless stated otherwise, everywhere listed below is within a 5 – 10 minute walk from the hotel.
