The landmark Guardian Life Building, which sits right on the edge of Union Square, has been reborn as the city's latest W Hotel. It offers the stylized, modern decor and long list of plush niceties that separate W Hotels from the pack; just some of these include designer bath products in all rooms, plus down comforters and fluffy bathrobes, CD players, and VCRs.

User reviews

typical W - if you like them, this is great

I would say this is by far my favorite NY W Hotel. The location is fabulous and the staff is friendly. The bar downstairs on the ground floor is good (Underbar downstairs is slightly better) and the restaurant is great. Rooms / decor is typical W. I would recommend this hotel.

spiky downtown style delights for biz travel

Renovate a perfectly located beaux-arts building on the edge of the Village, trick out the rooms with feathery comforters and fine down pillows, trendy colors, and comfortably offbeat furnishings. Add a sumptuous lobby lounge, a subterranean supper club, and relatively responsive service from buff bellhops in black t-shirts. A big wooden writing desk where you can connect and park a laptop. Great street views. Excellent coffee around the corner on Irving Place. Don't expect quiet. Welcome to lower Manhattan.

Great Location for NYC regulars

If you've done Times Square and want to do new york city away from all the touristy location, take this hotel on your next stay. The location is superb and central to almost everything in walking distance. Union square subway station is a 2 min walk. It's a location where you'll see a lot of locals who live around the area. You won't get board here. Rooms at this hotel are pretty nice too. Very classy and they have lots of rooms with an unobstructed view of Union Square. Bed are heavenly - in accordance to the starwood brand.
