SoHo & Chinatown
Sixty SoHo harbors 97 minimalist rooms, their black, white and gray broken up by blue velvet sofas, leather headboards and artwork by British artist Harland Miller. Unlike the tiny cardio room, the fireplace-studded ground-floor lounge is a seductive space. From May to October visit A60, a rooftop bar with skyline views.
Wi-fi is free in public areas but an exorbitant $15 (per 24 hours) in guest rooms.
