Request a higher floor for better views — east-facing rooms reportedly have the best skyline angles

Why It Matters

Was the world's tallest modular hotel when it opened in 2018. Houses the Museum of Street Art (MoSA Bowery) — 21 artists painted the entire stairwell from the rooftop down as a tribute to the 5 Pointz crew and Lower East Side culture. cloudM rooftop bar is open to anyone 21+, no room key required.

citizenM New York Bowery sits on one of Manhattan's oldest streets, and it knows it. The hotel is the tallest building on the Bowery — 20 floors of modular rooms stacked above Chinatown and Little Italy, with a rooftop bar that delivers some of the most unobstructed skyline views in the city. Rooms are compact (around 150 sq ft), king-bed only, and identical floor to floor — but everything from lighting to the blackout blinds is controlled by an in-room iPad. Here's the thing: you're not here to spend time in your room. The art-filled lobby, 24/7 canteenM, and cloudM rooftop bar are where citizenM actually shines.

One sink. Fridge. No room service. There's an open closet with hanging space and shelves but no wardrobe doors.
