not too bad but could be better
Pros:

l'emplacement : je suis assez fan de ce quartier de meatpacking
l'aspect "grosse cylindrée qui roule quasi sans à coups' de cet hôtel
la vue du roof top

Cons:

la piscine devrait être chauffée, comme le prétend vos publicités, tous les jours. Or ce n'est pas le cas
quand on en fait la remarque à l'un de vos employés, soudainement il ne comprend pas votre anglais : il faut élever la voix pour qu'une personne intervienne et vous explique qu'il va parler du problème aux ingénieurs. 100 % bullshit !

Dishonest and awful
Pros:

FALSE advertisement. The website lists one price with a third night free so I booked it. This is the email I received from the the hotel:

“ Hi, as per your request, please be advised when looking for rooms on the hotel website the $460.00 rate you see first is just an estimated rate and not the actual rates you will pay for the room.


Please be advised you reservation will remain as confirmed”

Since when do hotels give an estimate and not the real rate? I was told via telephone that is just to “draw people in”. Do yourself a favor folks and book elsewhere. This is bait and switch at its finest and the person on the phone “doesn’t know what to do about it”.

Run away from this place. I should have known when they wrote “as per.”

NYC weekend for our sons engagement party
Pros:

We stayed at the Gansevoort Meatpacking last weekend . I would give the experience a 100 if I could . I loved Gabi at the front desk. She got us checked in and out She was so kind, efficient and welcoming . The ladies in the lobby coffee shop were great too . The bell men were outstanding . I can’t remember all their names . My husband is in a wheelchair and they went above and beyond to get him in Ubers and into the hotel. I think they all need a raise. We had an amazing experience .

It was the 3rd time I reserved there but not doing it again, previosly also problems with the room
Pros:

location

Cons:

service was not good at all, roomservice only available on certain moments of the day and pretty limited really not what you expect from a hotel in this category.
Bathroom was a disaster, toilet malfunctioning.

I enjoyed my staycation. I would stay at the Gansevoort again.
Pros:

Convenient location, you can walk to wherever you please.

Cons:

Rented a daybed by the pool for 2 days, on day one I showed up at 4 :00 p.m. as my reservation stated that I had the daybed from 2:15 PM – 4:15 PM & 4:20 pm-6:20 PM. My daybed wasn't ready when I arrived on day 1. I had to show the pool attendants my confirmation email twice to prove that I did in fact rented a daybed. The following day, I'm in the elevator on my way to the pool, I assume this person was a manager, asked my name after I mentioned I had an incident at the pool yesterday with my daybed not being ready. Instead of apologizing, she blamed me for not showing up at 2:00 p.m.! Blame the patron, classy, professional, great customer service 🥴! You see, when I reserved the daybed I was told that I will be charged regardless of whether I showed up or not. So even if I had showed up at 5:00 p.m. my daybed should have been ready and waiting for me. Get your life together honey. My money is just as green as everyone else that patronize your hotel.

Disappointed.
Pros:

The location was perfect. The price was NYC during the holiday pricing. The rooms were very nice.

Cons:

I chose the hotel as a fun experience with my niece to swim on top in the winter chill with the heated aspect. But, they had just changed the water and it was polar plunge material which was not doable for us. It was literally the reason we stayed there and the fact that I was excited to eat at the sushi restaurant upstairs which was closed due to renovations.

Not For Families, by design
Pros:

Adorable boutique hotel. It has some glaring design flaws that are weirdly becoming common design choices - a decade from now history will look at these design choices and ask - what idiot thought that was a good idea ? For example…barn door sliders on the bathrooms that don’t latch and slide open leaving unavoidable gaps. Half a see through door on the shower, the entire set up means you had better be a very comfortable exhibitionist with your chosen roomies. No additional lounge chairs or table space of any kind save a very small office chair. It may sleep a family of four, but its clear they want young romantic couples, not the typical age and stage of traveling Americans. Spare your older children or your aging bodies the embarrassment of this set up. The lobby area is equally as unaccommodating, with one small couch offering seating space during check in (and most people check in and out at the same times meaning a large bottle neck in a small area). Its very cute, but someone with practical knowledge of travel and staying in hotels needs to re design the rooms and common areas.
