Location

As its name suggests, Hotel East Houston is located in Lower Manhattan on East Houston Street, which is the large crosstown avenue that separates the East Village from the Lower East Side on the east side of the city. Both neighborhoods are bustling, artsy areas that boast great shops, restaurants and bars. They’re full of New Yorkers young and old, and between them boast an incredible amount of history. The Lower East Side, in particular, has long been the landing point of immigrants, who came straight from Ellis Island to the neighborhood. Back in the day, the Lower East Side was all tenement buildings and was replete with poverty. These days, however, it’s a hip, happening area – the place where you go to be cooler than cool. Small vintage stores line the streets, and pre-war architecture that’s full of history rises into the sky. Next to it, you’ll find large, modern condominium buildings, making for quite the interesting skyline. The hotel is located close to the F and M subway lines, as well as a variety of buses. If you’re looking for culture, and you want to be in the New York that real New Yorkers love, look no further than Hotel East Houston.
