The Spotlight on Redford Hotel

Stylish Simplicity in NYC’s Lower East Side

Modern and unfussy, the Redford Hotel offers a budget-friendly stay in Manhattan’s vibrant Lower East Side. With clean, comfortable rooms and a laid-back vibe, this hotel puts you right in the heart of one of New York City's most exciting neighborhoods—ideal for music lovers looking to stay close to the action.
Just steps from the Delancey Street subway station, the Redford keeps you well-connected, whether you're heading to a show in Brooklyn or catching a live set downtown.

Why Concert-goers love it

The Redford Hotel sits within easy walking or subway distance of some of NYC’s best live music venues, including Bowery Ballroom and Mercury Lounge. With a 24-hour front desk and the option to request wake-up calls (for those early flights after a late show), it’s built for night owls. While the vibe is energetic outside, the hotel itself offers a quiet, smoke-free environment for a chill wind-down after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends heading out for a night of music and fun
  • Solo travelers chasing that bucket-list gig
  • Couples making a weekend of it in NYC
  • Fans needing a quieter place to recover post-concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want to be in the heart of the city

Food and Drink Options

While the Redford Hotel doesn’t have on-site dining, you’re in one of NYC’s best neighborhoods for food. Within just a couple blocks you'll find late-night pizza joints, ramen houses, and cozy cafes. Need to refuel after a show? Brunch spots nearby open late enough to rescue even the sleepiest of concert-goers.

Nightlife Options

The Lower East Side is packed with options: cocktail bars, dive bars, and live music lounges are all just around the corner. Whether you're looking for a post-show hang or want to keep the night going, there’s no shortage of energy. While the hotel itself doesn't host live music, its prime location more than makes up for it.

What People Say

Guests love the Redford Hotel’s central location and easy access to public transport. Many reviews mention the friendly front desk staff and the hotel’s overall cleanliness and simplicity. Travelers also appreciate the free WiFi and in-room amenities like flat-screen TVs and work desks.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms can be on the smaller side—typical for Manhattan—and some guests noted that the decor is a bit basic. But if you’re here for the music and nightlife, chances are you won’t be spending much time in your room anyway!

The Bottom Line

The Redford Hotel offers affordable comfort in a can't-beat location—perfect for concert-goers looking to stay close to the beat of New York City.

Emergency reservation for my daughter and friend. Needed to drop things early before appointment - girls got there a bit after noon time and staff were ready and waiting for them! Thank you so much for making their amazing opportunity just a bit more special.

Liked: Exceptional staff.
Disliked: Rooms much smaller than depicted on photos.

Very good

Liked: Great friendly staff, the cleaning person came every day and everything was nice and proper. The room was totally fine: neither perfect nor was anything wrong with it either.
Disliked: The location was nice but we got unlucky staying during the 4th of July period. It was super noisy. On the bright side the reception lady gave us ear plugs to sleep - again thanks to the wonderful staff. I'd say AC was not sufficient. It still felt rather hot at nights. But nothing terrible.

Good

Liked: The location was good, close to the metro station with easy access to different areas in the city, lively and quite safe. The rooftop terrace was pleasant in the evening.
Disliked: The room was really small, could barely move around. There was a constant buzz from the ventilation systems of the buildings.

Liked: Staff are the best, kindest, and always willing to help.
Disliked: We are on a family trip (two adults and two kids), but the room is definitely too narrow and small for a family. It would be acceptable for a couple only. The wifi is a really bad experience.

Liked: Great location! Felt pretty clean
Disliked: A room with a shower essentially. Clean enough for what it is. WiFi doesn’t work nor did our T.V. Our room also had some outlets that obviously have burnt out which don’t work either. Also very loud on street side we brought our sound machine which helped.
