Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Abri

Near Union Square shops, theaters, and restaurants, this appealing hotel has small but tastefully appointed rooms with smart TVs, device docking stations, comfortable bedding, and fancy bath products. The lobby's recessed fireplace and warm wood and stainless-steel accents lend a modern feel, as does the wall with attached iPads for guest use. The mandatory "urban fee" includes access to the gym facilities a block away at Abri's sister hotel, Villa Florence, and morning coffee and newspapers in the lobby.
