Very cool property, with super helpful staff. The rooms are comically small, but clean. No refrigerator, no microwave, limited storage. If you go knowing that this is an old hotel, you'll realize the location is absolutely perfect for all things Greenwich Village and NYU. I would definitely return here.

Great location, very average hotel

We stayed here so that my son could get a sense of the NYU area. For that, the hotel can’t be beat! The hotel itself is pretty average- old decor, no water in the lobby for water bottle refills, the in-room air conditioning was either full blast cold or left everything feeling damp, and the continental breakfast was awful. The staff was nice’ish. Nothing terrible but nothing memorable.

This was my first visit to New York and I definitely made the perfect choice when selecting the Washington Square Hotel. Granted I did the research and knew it was conveniently walking distance close to all the must-try eateries like “Joe’s Pizza”, “L’industrie Pizzeria”, “Mama’s TOO!”, “Bleecker Street Pizza” and “John’s of Bleecker Street”. It is also one minute’s walk away from W 4 St - Washington Square MTA station which makes subway journeys to all the hot spots ridiculously easy. Even the journey from JFK airport is easy, quick and cheap as the LIRR from Jamaica to Penn Station means only a couple of stops downtown to Washington Square. The hotel itself is well maintained and the rooms are ideally suited for solo travellers and couples. I can imagine American travellers used to big spacious hotel rooms may be surprised by the compact size of the rooms, but if you’re in New York you should only be in the hotel to sleep. If you want to relax then sit in the Washington Square Park which is literally 30 seconds away from the hotel entrance and absorb the vibrant atmosphere and people watch the locals jogging or enjoying their deli sandwiches and coffee. A big shoutout to all the staff from housekeeping to the security staff and hotel reception who were all friendly and helpful. New Yorkers can be brisk and impatient but it’s great to be greeted by a friendly smile and hello from the staff. I will definitely choose this hotel again for my next trip to NYC.

The front desk staff and security were wonderful. I wish I had known ahead of time that the restaurant was closed so I could have planned ahead. Otherwise, great stay and would definitely stay there again.

Nice hotel, great staff, cool area of town. Certain elements are a bit dated (especially in the bathroom), but the bed was comfortable and we had a nice stay! Didn’t try the complimentary breakfast and the restaurant was undergoing renovations.

This was one of the few options in Manhattan that met both our standards and budget. We were impressed with the impeccable style of the halls, the cleanliness of the room and the service. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 stars, is because the drains in the bathroom were a little clogged, so the tub filled out even when taking a shower with the drain open. Not a big deal, just maintenance stuff.
