Fodor's Expert Review Sonder Duane Street

Amid TriBeCa's historic warehouses and trendy art galleries sits this boutique hotel, a fashionable addition to the neighborhood. Light pours in the loftlike windows of the comfortable rooms, which have hardwood floors, compact desks, and bright, modern furnishings. Sophisticated bathrooms have slate floors and rain showers. The Sonder hotel brand prizes technology, so expect options for contactless check-in, fast Wi-Fi, and streaming entertainment from your personal devices (in lieu of cable). Rates vary greatly depending on the season; and Sonder usually adds surcharges upon booking that hike the final charge.
