The relatively new hippy-chic Ace Hotel New York
clearly categorizes its rooms to embrace every traveler (in price/size
ascending order): Bunk, Cheap, Small, Medium, Large, Loft. It’s a big tent and
everyone is invited -- budget be damned.
Created by Seattle entrepreneur, Alex Calderwood, the
Ace infuses a trust-fund-grunge vibe with unique amenities. Many of the
rooms have original artwork, DJ turntables (to play good ol' fashioned vinyl!),
guitars, and stocked minibars.
While the rock stars can stay in the 700
square-foot Loft Rooms for around $600 or more a night, lowly groupies
have significantly less expensive options, whether you're traveling to the city for New York Pride (subject to availability) or just planning a summer visit.
From now until August 31, 2010, The Ace is offering a Starving
Artist Package. Use Promo Code
“STARVING” when booking on the hotel's site and stay in a Bunk Room
for $99 night for the room -- pretty cheap for two people. (It is important to note that full payment is charged at booking
time and is non refundable.) They'll even throw in free ramen noodles from the
mini bar on your first night.
Grab a friend and bunk it up in a trendy New York City
hotel for a very groovy price. Staying in the inexpensive Bunk Room, pictured at left (image courtesy Ace Hotel) -- with your
own private bathroom -- still gives you access to the hotel's gym, lobby bar, room
service, and free WiFi, as well as its incredibly convenient location near a
subway station and within walking distance of loads of fab NYC attractions and
neighborhoods.
So, experience a sophisticated throwback to your old
college days, and enjoy a good, cheap bunk in New York City. And that ain't no
bunk.
