Heated pool with a bar in the heart of Manhattan? You got it! Kike, Carlos, and Gorka, the makers and creators of the Room Mate brand, came up with the idea of the perfect cozy hotel for travelers. It's got to be in the center of the city – tick. It needs to be original with a creative interior – tick. It's got to have a scrumptious breakfast to fuel a long day in the city – tick. Last but not least, it has to be reasonably priced. For this, the three friends decided to get rid of the usual hotel extras and services that very few of us use anyway. Sounds like a great concept!

Room Mate Grace is located just 300 meters from Times Square and 500 meters from Rockefeller Center. It's got 139 unique designer rooms that were tastefully decorated by the designer Lorenzo Castillo. It feels like your friend's house, except that it looks nicer! The rooms and suites come in 9 different formats to suit your needs and budget: Basic, Queen, King, Twin, Triple, Quad, Executive, Junior Suite, and to top it all; Grace Suite.

Enjoy your cocktails in good company at the Pool Bar, or hit the small but cozy gym and end it with a relaxing session in the sauna. The tasty continental breakfast is served until noon, so you'll have plenty of time to rest after a long night out in New York City.
