Gershwin Hotel

Address - 7 E 27th St ny New York City 10016.

 
  • Just off Fifth Avenue in the historic Flatiron district, this hotel/youth hostel combo is an affordable and pop-arty alternative to pricier city hotels.

  • Warhol’s spirit haunts this decidedly laid-back hotel, which offers private rooms as well as dorms to a largely international backpacking set. Private rooms have cable TV, voice mail, and in-room safes.

  • The Empire State Building is 6 blocks to the north, and there are three subway stops within 2 blocks. Jazzy and informal, the Gershwin houses an art gallery and a lively performance space.

    SERVICES
    Geared toward the young and budget-driven, the Gershwin Hotel caters to an international backpacking set and travelers seeking budget digs in pricey Midtown Manhattan. An original Andy Warhol—of the Campbell’s Soup can variety—hangs from the high-ceilinged lobby, and walls are hung with art almost everywhere, including guestrooms. The Gershwin also has a separate performance space that features regular music, comedy, and theater performances; there’s almost always something going on here, from fringe theater to movies on the rooftop. Guests can check their e-mail at two coin-fed Internet kiosks in the lobby. Discounted parking (cheap for Manhattan) is available 3 blocks away.

    Valet parking:
    $25 per 24-hour period. $10 per 12-hour period.
    Fees do not include tax, may vary by weekday, and are subject to change without prior notification.
