Could've been a little bit cleaner. Not bad though. I appreciated the water cooler and tea downstairs. Great location and decent price. The bar downstairs was super loud the first night (private event) but not bad the other nights. The elevator was working but is a little awkward with big heavy luggage.

Great Value for the City!

We stayed one night here since we needed to be close to the airport for our ladt night.Centrally located and short walk to China Town and Fishermans Wharf. Cool artwork in the room plus the overall accommodation definitely give a NYC vibe - definitely recommend!

It’s in a fantastic location and was easy to get everywhere from there. Chinatown was basically just outside our door and Union Square a 5 minute walk. We walked to pier 39 in about 25 minutes and to the cable car turn around in about 15 minutes. Literally everything was so conveniently close. It’s no 5 star but definitely a 3 star and we enjoyed our stay. Crazy old cage elevator if you can’t do stairs and the stairway is narrow and steep with a hairpin turn at the top. We truly enjoyed our stay there. We are not fussy people who need all the conveniences of a 5 star hotel either.

Low cost at a cost

This property saves time using an electronic key, which is glitchy and there are not staff to assist much of the time. The elevator is old and has a heavy gate which was hard for my family member. They have emergency numbers listed to help and never answered either. Was able to get the key to work but with much risk to be stuck. The last day I had to help a person in a wheel chair leave the hotel because the mobility door wouldn’t work, he would have been stuck backing up to a road with a hill at great risk as there were no staff on a Saturday at 11 am to assist. Stay here at your own risk, not for the mobility impaired, and don’t arrive late.

I stayed at Hotel Des Arts from 9/2-4, 2025. I was in town to attend a conference and knew I would not be spending much time in my hotel. Knowing this, I booked a hotel based on vicinity to the main and surrounding events taking place throughout the week, rather than based on amenities. While the hotel staff were very accommodating with my early check in and late checkout requests and responsive to messages I sent, you do not book this hotel if you are used to certain luxuries in your hotel. Despite a generally okay stay, I can’t get over a few of the things I had to deal with. The only reason I even stayed the 2 nights I did was a lack of availability at other locations due to the size of the conference. I did not have an option to move. In the photos you will see the condition of the room upon my arrival, what you won’t see is that the room was lacking AC or a fan, so I had to open the windows. There were no screens on any windows on my room, and I did not see any on other windows. Staying on the 5th floor with no sort of window protection, I hope someone doesn’t bring their child! In addition to a bloody pillow, I found what I thought was a harmless bug crawling in the bed Wednesday morning, however, I found another one Thursday morning and awoke to my body being covered in dozens of itchy welts. Turns out they were bed bugs. I quickly checked and packed my belongings and checked out (originally had requested a 12pm checkout and was out before 10am). The hotel was alerted.

Not worth it

This property could really use a deep clean. There is no AC which is fine, but there’s also not even a fan. It’s uncomfortably hot. Their elevator is “temporarily” out of service so it’s a 4th floor walk up. This is really challenging to do with luggage. Their lobby has signs for fresh paint so you can’t sit in the lobby either because the chairs are covered. Finally, their openkey system worked great for checking in but stopped working when we returned at 2am. We tried everything but ultimately had to contact the host who is not on site, and they sent us a new code that worked. Really frustrating to be stuck in that way. There are cheaper hotels that are much better than this so it really isn’t worth it.

Not as pictured

I’m sure this is an older hotel, which I’m perfectly fine with. For me this ended up just being a place to sleep since the hotel itself really doesn’t offer much. No parking as well. Check in happened after hours and we had no problem with it. Directions were precise. I thought we would see someone at the front desk the following day but the entire stay the very small lobby was empty. Here is my biggest complaint is that the picture of the room, which is why we chose this hotel in the first place, was not the room we received. Each room is themed different which is great! I think that would bring people back to experience each room and how beautiful and different each room is. So my advice to the hotel is put rooms up individually so people have the correct expectation when booking. Our room was beautiful but probably wouldn’t of picked that one myself. Very misleading and a huge disappointment!

Property was pretty clean. Room was cozy for two of us. If we were planning a longer stay, I would likely look for something a bit more spacious. The street outside our window was pretty loud with large groups of people partying until fairly early in the morning. It was what we needed for the price so all in all happy with the stay.

Check-in: online key didn’t work but got physical key. Kitchen facilities: they told me via text there was a fridge in my room, but there wasn’t? Ice bucket but no ice machine lol. I did enjoy the tea and water downstairs. Transport access: Used st. Mary’s parking (affordable) and lucked out with street parking. The radiator started leaking randomly, they swiftly moved us to another room but the view was into 4 other people’s rooms and lacked privacy.. so we fixed the radiator by turning it on a bit and that helped the leak and noise and stayed in our original room. Would stay here again and recommended to others. Pictures are of the view from the room and some nearby street views.

Nice little spot for a work related trip

This is a boutique hotel in an old building and I enjoyed my two week stay. Not all rooms have a refrigerator, so make sure you confirm. The help I received during my stay was excellent. The room was clean and comfortable. Taking strolls in Chinatown after work was a nice wind-down from the day, as well as the nearby restaurants (check out Leleka, Today Food, Nomu & the ice cream shop around the corner). If old buildings aren’t your thing, find something corporate.
