Leon Hotel Guest Reviews
Write a review
The Leon Hotel offers a sleek, no-fuss stay in the heart of Lower Manhattan, just a short walk from SoHo and the Brooklyn Bridge. With clean lines, practical comforts, and a city-savvy location, it’s a smart choice for travelers looking to soak up NYC’s energy — and its music scene. Rooms feature flat-screen TVs, coffee machines, and some even offer city views. Plus, with a 24-hour front desk and concierge services, you’re set up for a smooth stay from check-in to encore.
Leon Hotel puts you within easy access to a variety of downtown music venues. With the Grand Street Metro Station (B and D lines) just a few minutes' walk away, late-night transit after a show is a breeze. The 24/7 front desk makes late arrivals no problem, and the hotel’s quieter Lower Manhattan location means you can actually get some rest after the music fades. Bonus: the concierge desk is great for helping you track down tickets or navigate the city’s live music options.
While Leon Hotel doesn’t have an on-site restaurant, it’s surrounded by late-night eateries offering everything from dumplings to pizza within walking distance. Whether it’s a quick bite before the show or a 2am snack, Chinatown and SoHo give you endless options. Breakfast spots are also nearby if you’re recovering from a late night — just take a short stroll in any direction.
You're steps away from some of downtown Manhattan’s best bars, lounges, and underground music venues. From cool cocktail bars in SoHo to divey Lower East Side haunts, there’s something for every vibe. Leon Hotel itself keeps things quiet, so you can party hard and sleep easy.
Some reviewers note that rooms can be on the smaller side — not unusual for NYC — and noise from the street may be noticeable in lower-floor rooms. If you're sensitive to sound, ask for a higher floor or a room away from Canal Street.
Leon Hotel is a smart, stylish home base for concert-goers who want to be close to the action but still enjoy a good night’s sleep in downtown NYC.

Hotel entrance might look disappointing,...
Liked: Room was surprisingly large for a Manhattan hotel, I had good view of the city and even had nice and comfortable "reading nooks" by the window.
Disliked: The location wasn't ideal, and the lobby isn't impressive, but once I got to the room I was happy with this choice.

Disliked: We’ve been staying at The Leon for years. We love this location and the nice big rooms.

Liked: Location is good, close to a subway. Room was clean and spacious. The staff member that was on reception on our check in was a credit to the hotel, very friendly and chatty.
Disliked: The only negative I have was there was no fridge in the room.
