The Ridge - A boutique hotel with rooftop terrace and artist-curated rooms in Lower East Side

Located at the intersection of East Village, the Bowery, and Lower East Side, this 3-star New York City hotel features 42 boutique rooms with custom furniture and local artist installations by Ricky Powell and Crash. The Ridge accommodations include iPod docking stations, Samsung wall-mounted LCD HDTVs, Bvlgari bath amenities, and custom-designed showers with marble or European glass tiles. The 400-square-foot property contains a business center, conference space, and a meeting room. The lobby features dark-hued Mies van der Rohe-style chairs, wood paneling, and a golden textured wall. A rooftop terrace provides panoramic views of the Empire State Building and Manhattan skyline, equipped with lounge chairs and a covered area under an awning. Situated 0.5 miles from Bowery, The Ridge stands 2 miles from The High Line and 1.5 miles from the 9/11 Memorial.

Pros

Each room includes complimentary access to brain.fm, a cognitive state-influencing music service

Within 0.2 miles of notable dining spots like Prune, Russ & Daughters, and The Meatball Shop

Specially adapted rooms available for physically challenged guests

Complimentary Fiji water provided in all rooms

Cons

12.5 miles distance from LaGuardia Airport

Limited indoor common spaces beyond the lobby

“In my opinion, this boutique hotel embraces New York's character with custom-designed rooms reflecting local art and a unique rooftop terrace showcasing the city skyline; its location is ideal for those keen on exploring the Lower East Side's vibrant offerings. While the self-service kitchen adds convenience, the contactless check-in caters to modern travelers seeking a seamless experience. It's a distinctive option for an immersive urban getaway.”

Fantastic Stay!

nearby restaurants clean room free snacks rooftop terrace
I was very grateful for the nearby restaurants and ease of access to both the subway and bus lines. My room was clean and included both a microwave and a refrigerator. The front desk made snacks available daily. I used the rooftop terrace frequently because views are great, also the downstairs lounge area was a PLUS.
The room was quite small but I managed just fine.
