The Dream Hotel Downtown

by Elsa Termenon on October 23, 2011

One of the things I love with traveling is discovering new hotels, both my husband and I have a thing for boutique hotels and we always try to make an effort to find cool places to stay. This time in New York we stayed at The Dream hotel in the Meatpacking district, and I have to say that I was really impressed by this little gem! The Dream is the latest addition to Vikram Chatwal Hotels and is an urban oasis were every single detail seems to be chosen with care. The rooms are small but compensates with the best bed I’ve ever slept in, and the open view over the rooftop of downtown Manhattan is magnificent.

We were heading out on Friday evening for dinner and a few drinks but ended up staying the entire evening at the hotel. What is the need to leave when The Dream is where everyone else wants to go? So, instead we ended up having a delicious seafood dinner at The Marble Lane and lounging in the silver chesterfield sofas with some bubbles before heading up to PH-D, the rooftop nightclub were we were met by a nice crowd, great music and a view that simply blew our minds!

All in all, I had a great time staying at The Dream and I think that The Standard has just got itself some competition…

The bar

The lobby, which turns into a busy lounge at night. See the roof – that’s the floor of the swimming pool! 

Heated swimming pool. I’d love to come back here in the summer!

    as i said before, the chatwal hotel was our favorite hotel in the city! it is also a small boutique hotel, but the crowd is more upper eastside! the service was completely phenomenal. it is so hard to find a hotel in nyc that is perfect, has a fabulous interior and has a top notch service. the chatwal has it all! so the dream downtown was an option for our upcoming visit! there was a lot said about the cheese design but i love the bubbly 60′s over the top vibe! oh and i think they have a pretty good agreement with tivoli, the chatwal has the same radio’s!

    I remember your post about The Chatwal and I’m really curious about that place, hopefully we’ll be able to stay there soon! I agree with you that it is hard to find a place in the city that has it all, and is in a nice location. I love the Meatpacking so this was perfect, you should check it out in the future. Or at least I can recommend coming to the rooftop bar for a drink on your next visit!
