Like other reviews say, this place is located smack bang in Chinatown and Little Italy! It's also a stones throw from soho shopping with 2 subway stations very close by!

We originally caught the bus and subway from the airport, but as we had so much luggage and no escalators/elevators at the station, I will definitely recommend catching a taxi or shuttle to/from the hotel. The reception can actually book a cab to JFK for $55 through a deal. We booked a minivan through Dial7 as we are travelling in larger groups.

Breakfast here is interesting. There are boiled eggs, MYO oats, an awesome waffle machine, fresh fruits and juice as well as your usual continental stuff. There are so many different foods sold in the area so we only had breakfast there for one day.

Hugh at reception helped us check in earlier which was very much appreciates. After an extremely long and tiring flight, and bad experience with some surprisingly rude people on transports and streets, we were keen on a nice shower and change of clothes.

This hotel is simple and comfortable! We will definitely stay here again and I will highly recommend others to do so too! It is the turnaround to the start of your trip to NY!

I stayed here with a University school trip a few years ago.

The accommodations were good, the rooms were clean, but the hotel was a little closer to Chinatown then we would have liked.

I have to add that the service was courteous and professional, and at no point in time were there any hardships experienced by any of the students, or any issues that were not addressed in the appropriate manner.

Considering other hotels I had the opportunity to visit throughout the years, I have to rate the Best Western Bowery Hanbee as "average," but by no means is it a bad hotel.

I would recommend it for sure!

Well, what can I say, what a fantastic, brilliant little hotel, excellent value for money, me and the wife stayed here for a week in Jan 2012 and had a excellent stay, couldn't ask for anything more, great location not far from the underground, just a 2min walk, friendly staff, clean room, what more can I say.... the only problem was internet connection was rubbish, but that shouldn't put u off..... I would defo recommend and most defo stay there again... 5 stars.*****. Thx you Best Western....

We had the most wonderful time in Bowery Hanbee, where we stayed for a week last June. Lovely hosts, spatious rooms, clean and tidy furnishing, great beds, good air conditioning. The hotel is perfectly located for easy access to Soho, East Village, Little Italy and, of course, Chinatown. Great value for money. We will be back!
