Freehand was a great place for my wife and I to stay on a short trip to NYC. The staff was excellent, the hotel was beautiful with interesting architecture, our room was comfortable and well appointed. The location was perfect for us, as were visiting our son in Gramercy. Would definitely recommend, and stay there again.

I took my 9 year old son here for the night for April break. It was magical. From the moment you enter you are greeted by the nicest staff. Check in was clear and easy. The accommodations were spectacular - imagine a bunk bed!! over a queen bed of your very own. The room was quiet - even close to the elevator. A delicious cafe and coffee shop await you in the lobby. Ms Pac Man! Walk to everything that you need. We will be back at least every year.

Good location, however not very clean in the public areas. Hotel room was clean and ready for use upon arrival. Great service with bag handling.
This property does not belong in conde naste top 50 for anything! The corridors are dismal, rooms tiny and bathrooms tiny closet tiny!!! Phone did not work during my stay , engineer came to fix thermostat and tried to fix the phone . He was very nice as was bellman named hero but otherwise awful hotel!
Prettier in the pictures. When I visited the neon Freehand sign was busted. The hallways and rooms were very dimly lit. The room had no view. And I was charged a resort fee for an onsite restaurant that was "closed for a private event" and a bar that was closed for the month.
