Partner Reviews: Crosby Street Hotel

Slowest elevator in the world... give yourself 10 minutes of wait time while going upstairs -
the drawing room is one of my favorite quiet spaces in the neighborhood. it's great for a catchup over tea or drinks. if it's nice out, you can also pop into the inner courtyard. -
To the left, the bar/restaurant everyone hangs out at. To the right, the "hotel guests only" lounge with crazy art work. Just lie -- you're in room #403. -
Great place to have a business breakfast as the food is great and it is a very chill space where u can have a conversation. -
If you're a regular, you can sometimes sneak into the lovely inner courtyard. -
Come during the day and pony up at the couches. Order tea and take advantage of their free wifi. -
A full on English tea! -
London chic in SoHo. Sit in the drawing room or lie in bed and obsess over Kit Kemp's vibrant Savile Row-like interiors. -
