Loved how easy it is to get around with all the subways around. Also super close to a lot of shops which is nice. Not a fan of the thin windows that don't block noise. Combine that with their club that is super popular and runs until 4am and you've got people yelling and screaming all night when you're trying to get some rest for the next day. Was disappointed as this place almost has it all and for the price I was paying for it I would've expected the room to be more sound proof. Word to the wise, don't spend the extra money on a room with a great view as that just puts your room right by the club entrance and you will be kept up all night.

A good hotel posing as a high end one. Rooms had no coffee machine, no fridge, no room service, and the lowest shower water pressure possible. The lobbby and bar decor was gorgeous but the bites were grocery store quality. The cleaning service threw out three pastries that we were saving from the shop downstairs which was very disappointing. For all this there is a 40 dollar per day access fee even when the roof bar is closed for cold weather. However, things were clean, staff were nice, and the metro was close by.

I stayed at PUBLIC hotel for a short visit, arriving at midnight and leaving at 7am and was surprised to find a $40/night “all-access fee” added to my bill. The fee supposedly covers things like “Wellness Classes” “Priority Access to the Bar” “Lobby Access,” and Wi-Fi - none of which I used or needed during my 7 hour stay. Paying extra for Wi-Fi in 2024, especially at a hotel charging $400 a night, feels like a blatant rip-off. What’s worse, I was CC’d in an internal email that made it clear this fee could be waived, yet management still refused to remove it. Charging guests for services they don’t use, don’t want, and weren’t informed of at check-in is unfair.

The hotel is cool, but there is no service. I called ahead to let them know it was my wife’s birthday and to get help to arrange something nice for her. Though the person on the phone was very nice there was no one to speak to at the hotel. There was no option to have champagne or chocolate sent to the room. For an expensive hotel it lacked the service element for a five star experience.

There is a water pipe valve banging noise constantly. Sounds like a water pump. The noise continues throughout the day and at night. Noise from the roof top bar can be heard until 2 am. Hallway carpets are filthy. Sheets had stains on them. Staff is not service oriented at all.
