The Dominick - New York

A trendy hotel in a trendy area, The Dominick is a stylish option for a stay in New York’s cool SoHo neighbourhood. A spa by luxury skincare giants, Sisley, Michelin-starred dining and a seasonally open seventh-floor pool are a few of many highlights.

Known for its iconic cast iron fronted buildings, SoHo is a hub for artists and fashionistas in Lower Manhattan. It’s next door to the trendy neighbourhoods of Tribeca and West Village, meaning an abundance of boutiques, galleries and restaurants are within a short stroll. Popular nearby attractions include Color Factory New York, opposite the hotel, and the Museum of Ice Cream, around 800 metres away. Times Square and Central Park are roughly three miles distance, while John F Kennedy and Newark Liberty International Airports are both about 14 miles away.

An imposing double-height lobby, lined with deep, irregular slatted wood walls, leather armchairs and ornamental light boxes, leads you past a lounge area to the front desks. The moody vibe continues throughout the hotel, with deep woods, textured furnishings and gold and copper accents giving a luxe feel. Accommodation overlooks Hudson Square, the city skyline, or enjoys far-reaching SoHo views from higher floors. Within each view category, King Rooms and One- and Two-Bedroom Suites are found. On the highest floors, the Junior Penthouse features two bedrooms, as does the Tribeca Penthouse, along with views of the city and Hudson River. Meanwhile, two Landmark Penthouses overlook the Empire State Building or sunset over the Hudson River. Split over two levels, with river and city views, the Dominick Duplex Penthouse is the most breathtaking of all, indoors and out, with a private wraparound terrace.
