Beautiful views, comfortable rooms, and outstanding hospitality.
Pros:

I had an excellent stay at Ink48. The room was spacious, modern, and impeccably clean, with comfortable bedding and thoughtful touches throughout. The view was absolutely stunning—waking up to the skyline and river views made the experience feel truly special.

The bar and rooftop area were highlights of the property. The atmosphere was sophisticated yet relaxed, making it the perfect place to unwind after a busy day in the city. The staff was welcoming, professional, and attentive from check-in through departure.

The location offers a great balance of being close to everything while still feeling peaceful and removed from the crowds. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Ink48 to anyone looking for a stylish New York hotel with incredible views and exceptional service.

Cons:

The only negatives were the lack of room service and the inability to charge food and drinks to the room. Overall, these were minor inconveniences compared to an otherwise excellent stay.

Comfortable, clean and what I expected
Pros:

Rooms very clean and comfortable

Cons:

Rooftop was closed both nights we stayed which was annoying and given it’s a highlight of staying at the hotel, it’s a shame. However, all else made up for that and I’d stay again.

Otel orta seviye otel sadece kapı açan görevliler ilgili lobide olanlar değil bir odası iyi balkon ve deniz manzarası va
Pros:

Konumu ve odamdaki balkon deniz manzarası olması

Cons:

Saat 13:30’da otele geldiğimizde kalınmadık , konaklama yaptığımız her güç odamızda ki ekstira yatağa yorgan istedik ve her gün yıkamada gelecek dendi gelmedi , dünyada kaldığım her otelde sıcak çiçek için katıl olur her gün istedik verilmedi kendümiz paramız ile aldık

Not worth the money and time, go else elsewhere
Pros:

The only good thing was the location - cause I picked it to my needs, the rest

Cons:

Waited for 2 hours to get us checked in, rooms were not ready, but at the same time I saw they were checking in other people and handing them out keys. Folks at the reception were completely ignorant, asked for their managers nobody ever showed up.

There’s a club right across the street from the hotel, the music was blasting I couldn’t sleep well. Sound isolation is next to none. If you are looking for silence for this kind of money - go elsewhere.

After all they charged me extra ~$140 on top what I already paid saying that was facility fee, that should’ve been included into booking rate in the first place so I could have the full picture, but I guess that’s their tactic to squeeze a little more outta their clients hoping nobody would notice the charge
