The Dominick Hotel

Staff was pleasant, amenities were great, and I was very happy with the cleanliness of the property. My staycation felt like more of an overnight vacation. I will be returning.

Overall experience was great. Clean rooms and most of the staff were very friendly. Breakfast was great. I do not recommend El Ta Koy. That was the only negative experience during my stay.

Views and location are on point. Rooms are getting a little dated and need a refresh. Lifts are slow - take an extra 15 mins if you’re above floor 35. Don’t expect great service from anywhere except housekeeping.

My suite wasn’t as clean as you’d expect a 5 star hotel to be. The floor was dirty and it was sticky in the bathroom. The technology in the room is completely outdated. But the front desk staff is amazing and the view is spectacular so that was the highlight.

We had a wonderful stay at The Dominick while celebrating my wife's birthday. Overall, it’s a beautiful, upscale hotel in an excellent SoHo location, and the staff made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. Check-in was quick and efficient, and the front desk was well staffed. We were able to get both an early check-in and a late checkout, which was greatly appreciated. The pre-arrival concierge communication was also excellent, particularly regarding our birthday celebration, and the hotel went out of its way to provide some thoughtful complimentary touches. Our room was upgraded to a corner room with an awesome view of the river and High Line. The bedroom was spacious by NYC standards, and the bathroom was one of the highlights, with a soaking tub, separate shower, enclosed toilet, and two vanity sinks. My wife especially loved the complimentary body lotion—the fragrance was wonderful. The living room was comfortable but fairly basic, with a pull-out sofa and desk, while the bar was well stocked but, of course, not complimentary. The location is excellent. We walked to all of the restaurants we wanted to visit, and there was convenient parking nearby, so we didn't need to use the hotel's parking. There were a few things that kept the stay from being perfect. The room was somewhat noisy, with noticeable street noise as well as sound from the neighboring room (clearly a couple next door was having a beautiful romantic time). One of the closet doors also wouldn't close completely, which meant the automatic closet light stayed on unless we propped the door shut. Minor issues, but things I'd expect to be addressed at this price point. The elevators were fine during most of our stay, but on our final night several were out of service, resulting in long waits and understandably frustrated guests. Hopefully that was just an isolated situation. The mezzanine and terrace were both nice, although the terrace became extremely crowded on Friday afternoon, likely due to the outdoor pool. Despite those issues, we really enjoyed our stay. The combination of the room, spectacular view, location, and attentive service made for a memorable birthday weekend. With some improvements to sound insulation, room maintenance, and elevator reliability, The Dominick could be an even stronger luxury hotel experience. We're glad we experienced The Dominick and would definitely consider returning on a future NYC visit.
