The Dichotomy of past and present - historic and chic -poverty and opulence are vivaciously alive on Orchard Street. The Blue Moon Hotel was inspired by immigrant life at the turn of the century. This beautifully restored tenement - building with authentic original historic details is located on a cobblestone street once occupied by push cart vendors - pickle packers - butchers and bakers. Now New York Citys historic past has come to life in the authentic yet modern and comfortable neighborhood hotel. The Blue Moon Hotel is the perfect venue for any type of travel to New York. Our cozy hotel has been recently restored to provide a luxurious yet throw back atmosphere of what old New York once was in the heydays of Benny Goodman, Groucho Marx, and Frank Sinatra. The facade woodwork and historical memorabilia along with our famous guest rooms and suites will bring you back to times always cherished and never to be forgotten.
What's Great Travel + Leisure says......
"Set on the Lower East Side's main thoroughfare, this 22-room brick guesthouse—originally built as a tenement in 1879—perfectly embodies its quirky, eclectic home neighborhood. Though updated with modern-day amenities like whirlpool tubs, Wi-Fi, cable TV, and mini-fridges, the rooms (all named after old movie stars and jazz giants) still retain details from their historic past—like wrought-iron bedsteads and original wood shutters, window moldings, and (in some cases) window settees. It's no wonder the place is a hit with today's crop of young, scruffy-chic Lower East Siders; after all, these are the kids who prefer their techno music on vinyl, and who pair their mod asymmetrical haircuts with outfits from the thrift shop.
Tip: To get a real sense of the old neighborhood, visit the Tenement Museum, less than a block away (tenement.org); then walk over to Houston and Ludlow for pastrami at the venerable Katz's Deli (www.katzdeli.com).
Room to Book: Spring for one of the penthouse suites (the Al Jolson or the Eddie Cantor—both of which have 14-foot ceilings and enormous windows with views of Manhattan), or the Molly Picon suite, with its 26-foot-long private terrace."
National Geographic Traveler says......
"Manhattan's Lower East Side tenement turned boutique hotel. Public-space walls lined with collages of historic newspaper clippings, bank receipts, etc., evoke the building's past. Rooms have original wood moldings, wrought-iron beds, art nouveau light fixtures; present tense: flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi. 22 rooms."

What's Great "Yes, kids love the pool, the giant chess game, even the putt-putt golf green, but lush landscaping, a location to die for (the motel is maybe 10 steps from the beach), and 54 large guest suites with low-key nautical decor and mini kitchens make the grown-ups giddy too."
