PUBLIC Hotel—the brainchild of Ian Schrager, who founded the "boutique hotel" category—is far more than a hospitality destination. Located in New York City's perennially hip Lower East Side, PUBLIC is at once a premier event space (which includes cultural programming), gastronomic hot spot, and, of course, a hotel—culminating with arresting views of Lower Manhattan.
Queen Great View
Features jaw-dropping unobstructed views of the city, the most comfortable Queen-sized bed, a 50” LCD smart TV with Apple TV, Bang & Olufsen Bluetooth speaker, and the fastest WiFi access. Enjoy amenities such as exclusive and private use of our club room, offering refreshments and snacks, a 24 hour state-of-the -art gym, complimentary wellness classes and more.
Lobby and Lobby bar
The lobby and lobby bar is where the lines blur between work, fun, socializing and culture. It’s the hotel’s heartbeat and social hub–where our community comes to life. With lots of comfortable seating, easy-access power outlets and super-fast WiFi, it’s the perfect place to grab a coffee, get some work done, drink, or network.
PUBLIC Kitchen
The hotel’s restaurant by renowned chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, is driven by the market and the seasons, and inspired by Jean-Georges’ travels worldwide. The menu focuses on sustainable seafood, organic poultry and grass-fed meats, as well as using the freshest organic green market fruits and vegetables.
DIEGO
As stylish and sophisticated as it is sexy, DIEGO, an intimate bar—with great food as well—is akin to a private gentleman’s club in London. It specializes in inspired cocktails by world-class, internationally-famed mixologists, an original menu by Jean-Georges, an eclectic, curated mix of world music, great art and even a fireplace.
THE ROOF
THE ROOF is a vibrant and energetic bar, that appears to be floating in the sky, with jaw dropping 360-degree panoramic views of the city through floor-to-ceiling windows and a spectacular outdoor terrace offering the best views of NYC. It’s an ideal place to meet for sunset cocktails, while after dark, it transforms into a very sexy late-night hotspot, hosting the best local and international DJ’s from around the world.
PUBLIC Arts
The first new idea since Studio 54 forty years ago, a nighttime renaissance, and a cultural, social, event and party machine, PUBLIC Arts is a cutting-edge, progressive and avant-garde multi-media performance space like no other. A new dimension and home to adventurous artists, ideas and people, the space will offer the most innovative programming including everything from film screenings to musical performances, rotating art exhibitions to product launches, open mic night to comedy night, as well as late night hot sweaty dancing!
