The Location

Tribeca, also known as the triangle below Canal Street, stands out as an exceptional area to stay in Manhattan. A stay at The Roxy means you have everything you need right at your fingertips without even leaving the hotel. For your morning coffee fix, Jack's Stir Brew is conveniently located in the lobby. If you want a delicious meal, head to the Oyster Bar where the ahi tuna crudo and kale caesar are my personal favorites. And don't forget to indulge in a side of fries. They also have a great bar called the Roxy Bar with a sizable selection of cocktails, the refreshing Down in Mexico being my favorite.

Want an exciting night out, venture downstairs to The Django for a night of jazz, dancing, and expertly crafted cocktails. If you're in the mood for a more intimate setting, check out Paul's Cocktail Lounge for a night of cocktails and dancing. For a cozy and laid-back evening, the Roxy Cinema is the perfect spot to enjoy a classic film with some candy and fresh popcorn.

However, if you decide to explore the area, the options are endless. For the best pancakes in the city, brunch at Bubby's. Treat yourself to a three or four-course dinner with breathtaking city views at Manhatta. Au Cheval has one of my favorite burgers in the city, and don't miss out on the General Jane’s fried chicken or the chocolate cream pie accompanied with an espresso martini. You can also head to The Odeon for a dirty martini, oysters, steak tartare, and another great burger. If you are in the mood for sushi, be sure to go to Nobu Downtown. They offer fresh sushi and a lively atmosphere.

Looking for activities nearby, go unwind and treat yourself to a day at the AIRE Ancient Baths spa). If you're in the mood for shopping, head to Soho. Want to explore more?
