New York's Lower East Side consists of many neighborhoods including Chinatown, SoHo and the East Village. Traditionally an immigrant and working class section of Manhattan, in recent years the Lower East Side has undergone significant gentrification. Preservationists have managed to save numerous buildings, allowing visitors to enjoy an important slice of American immigrant history. Many affordable-priced hotels--at least by New York City standards--can be found in the area.
This 32-room Comfort Inn is one of the newest hotels found in New York's Lower East Side. From this hotel, you are within walking distance to Chinatown, the United Nations building and to the Manhattan Bridge. This narrow, seven-story hotel is two blocks from the Museum at Eldridge Street and four blocks from the Lower East Side Tenement Museum. City bus lines and the subway are also within two blocks of this hotel.
This hotel provides business services, Internet access and a free breakfast daily. Each room includes two double beds or one king bed, a coffeemaker and a minibar. As of September 2010, rooms are from $234 per night, with discounts available for senior citizens, members of the military and government workers.
