The best New York hotel

This is the second time we stayed at the historic blue Hotel! I grew up four blocks from the hotel so this is a coming home experience. The hotel is awesome. It’s the only place to stay in New York!

I don’t even know where to begin - Wow. The Blue Moon is unlike anything else in New York. Staying here feels like stepping back into the city’s history, immersed in its essence and character in a way few places can offer. The building itself is a living story, thoughtfully preserved and lovingly restored. Every detail - from the architecture to the atmosphere - speaks of another era, yet it is seamlessly balanced with modern comfort. It’s not just a hotel; it’s an experience, a rare glimpse into the soul of Old New York. And just as important, the staff embody that same spirit: gracious, knowledgeable, and genuinely proud to share the hotel’s heritage. Their warmth makes you feel like a guest of honor in a place that celebrates the city’s past while welcoming you into its present. I encourage you look this place up on Instagram! You will know what I mean... This place is amazing; highly recommend.

Historic hotel with modern amenities

Beautiful historic building with upgraded amenities and a lovely atmosphere. Elevator is a bit old, but otherwise this was a perfect stay in a very convenient location and I will definitely be back! The room along the back of the building facing the alleys was very quiet despite it being a loud area.

Interesting history but we paid for the suite and there is a club right outside that played loud music until 3 am. There was only one person working at the hotel and when we got there a little early we already had a text that the room was ready and code to enter, but were told we had to pay $75 more if we wanted to go to the room early. If the one staff member left the front desk there was nobody else around to help and no security at all. Already mentioned all of this when asked to leave a review and was told that they don't have a sound meter to document the noise of the club. There is no way that would not be obvious.

love the blue moon

LOVED how every single person we spoke with was totally committed to our comfort. There were a couple of technical issues (the fridge was leaking) and they fixed it immediately. They checked on but were not overbearing. They were incredibly friendly but not overbearing. The room was lovely and I would 100% stay there again.
