Great stay in a fantastic location! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We really enjoyed our three-night stay at PUBLIC. The hotel has a great atmosphere, with stylish interiors, a lively feel and a fantastic location for exploring New York. We booked a double room with twin beds, which worked really well for two people travelling together. The room was modern, cleverly designed and made excellent use of the space. The location is a huge plus, with plenty of restaurants, cafés and shops within walking distance, and easy access to the subway. Overall, a really enjoyable stay and a great base for a few days in NYC. Would happily stay again!
