COURTYARD NEW YORK DOWNTOWN MANHATTAN/FINANCIAL DISTRICT, New York

The hotel sits at the heart of the Financial District, a 9-minute walk from the National September 11 Memorial & Museum and 1 km from One World Trade Center. The Staten Island Ferry terminal and ferries to Liberty and Ellis Islands are about 2 km away at Battery Park. The nearest subway access is a short walk (Fulton Street and Wall Street stations), providing direct routes to Times Square in about 5 stops. The area is well supplied with dining, from pizza and bagels to supermarkets and convenience stores. Brooklyn Bridge is a pleasant walk away. Public parking is available next door at 201 Pearl St, but no on-site parking is available. The surrounding streets are safe and active into the evening.

Rooms are described as compact, typical for New York City. Some units offer river views, while many face adjacent buildings or a construction site. All rooms include air conditioning, soundproof walls, a flat-screen TV with cable channels, tea/coffee maker, a work desk, and a private bathroom with a bath or shower. Family rooms are available, accommodating up to four with two double beds. A refrigerator is present in every room (no microwaves - a shared microwave is in the lobby market). Rooms are clean but storage is very limited, with small closets and no drawers. The air conditioning can blow directly onto the bed. A-C shaft noise between rooms is possible. For a quieter stay and a view, request a high floor away from street-facing rooms and construction.

The hotel's restaurant, Standard by Butler, serves American cuisine for lunch and dinner. The on-site bar offers drinks in the evening. Breakfast is available for purchase at $17.99 per person plus tax, offering a continental buffet (eggs, yogurt, fruit, breads, and drinks). The breakfast quality is basic. Many nearby options include Pearl Diner directly across the street, Squire's Diner on Beekman Street, and various pizzerias, bagel shops, and cafes within a 5-minute walk. The lobby-level market sells snacks, drinks, and basic items. A shared microwave is available for guest use in the lobby market.

The hotel offers a well-maintained, free fitness centre open 24 hours. Guests can also borrow bicycles free of charge to explore the Financial District and nearby attractions such as the Brooklyn Bridge and Hudson River Greenway. The property has an outdoor terrace with seating. There is no pool or spa on-site. The gym can become warm. The rooftop terrace at the adjacent Sheraton is advertised but not part of this hotel's facilities.

Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the rooms. The 24-hour front desk can assist with check-in, requests, and luggage storage (free on check-out day, same-day only - not for overnight storage). A laundry room is available on the lower level, open 24 hours, for a fee. The hotel offers dry cleaning services, a business centre, and meeting/banquet facilities. A minimarket (the 'Market') is located in the lobby. The property has a lift, is wheelchair accessible (with grab rails, raised toilet, lower sink, tactile signs), and has 24-hour security with CCTV. The building houses two hotels (Courtyard and Residence Inn), so elevator waits can occur during peak times. The property has no business centre or meeting/banquet facilities beyond standard offerings.
