Hotel Henri

Union Square, Flatiron District & Gramercy


Nearly equidistant from Chelsea and Union Square, Hotel Henri was once a serviceable but dull hotel in a great location. Its small rooms now boast chic interior design (slate-gray walls, 1960s-inspired wood styling) in addition to the great service and amenities, including K-cup coffee machines and HDTVs.
