Handlery Union Square Hotel

Handlery Union Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The room was spacious and very clean. The beds were quite comfortable and I always got a good night’s sleep. I love that we were provided with bathrobes! We did find our sink had a leak but the staff came to fix it immediately and we had no further issues. The heated pool and sauna are a plus! Despite having a lot of people staying at the hotel and it being very close to Union Square, it was relatively quiet. Eateries were all within walking distance whether we wanted something to grab quickly or wanted a sit down meal and we were able to use our hotel card to get discounts at a few of them! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again!"
