The Ridge Hotel

I stayed here with my cousin for about a week from Christmas to New Year's Day. Service was amazing from the beginning, with friendly staff that will greet you when you enter and leave the hotel. Our room was a bit tiny, and for some reason, both our single beds were RIGHT underneath the side-lamps (our assumption is that they usually put the beds together, so the lamps are a bit to the side, but we're not sure). The location is great -- it's just a stone throw's away from Russ & Daughters, Chinatown, and the 2nd Ave. subway station isn't far at all (not to mention the BDFM, etc.). You honestly can't go wrong with staying LES - one of my favourite neighbourhoods. The biggest issue was that our room was facing the Rumpus Room across the street -- so on Friday/Saturday evenings, it was pretty noisy (but what do you expect from NYC. Haha).

Very loud and close to the street. Basement snack room and rooftop were very run down and old. You can hear through the doors every slam and creak. Good location but I would have paid more for a better place

Room was really cute. Desk clerk was very kind.

Th WiFi did not work, which was crippling for me since I planned to make to conf. calls from the room. I had to leave the hotel. I was told a manager would call me - never happened.

Great for the price! Right in the center of my favorite area of NYC (east village), near tons of bars and restaurants. Stayed in a queen room, it was clean and the bed was comfy; perfect for a night's stay. Doesn't have too many amenities (ex. mini fridge, coffee maker, shampoo + conditioner etc.) but that was fine with me!

Very nice room great service and awesome location with subway across the street

Our one night stay was okay, nothing special. Bed was not comfortable at all but the overall “vibe” of the room/hotel we loved.

Nice hotel. Convenient to a lot of things. Resort fee was ridiculous. Should not have to pay for a maid to clean the room. What's the daily rate we paid for. No gym, no pool. Did have snacks and water and coffee. Overall, nice place.

Room is clean but very small like most NYC hotels. Service was very good and overall is fairly quiet. A few things that it lacks are: No bars of soap, no conditioner, only one set of hand and face towels. Overall decent value.
