Fodor's Expert Review The Broome Hotel

This boutique hideaway in an 1825 Federal-style building is a favorite of design enthusiasts, both for its striking five-story atrium and for its convenient location near the neighborhood's best shops and galleries. Rooms are tight on space, though if you can splurge on the penthouse, you'll get a massive terrace. This property is a prime pick for guests who want to get a feel for downtown day-to-day life.
