What Hotel 50 Bowery actually is
Hotel 50 Bowery sits on the site of the old Bull's Head Tavern, and excavation during construction turned up artefacts from the eighteenth century — a selection is displayed in a small on-site exhibition curated with the Museum of Chinese in America.
Rooms are modern and mid-sized, and the 21st-floor Crown rooftop bar has one of the best downtown panoramas in the city, taking in the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges. Chinatown's restaurants are at street level and Little Italy is two blocks north.
What stands out
- 01 Crown rooftop bar with bridge and skyline views
- 02 On-site archaeological exhibition from the excavation
- 03 In the middle of Chinatown's restaurant district

Tenement history on one block and a natural-wine bar on the next. The LES has the highest concentration of late-night rooms in Manhattan and hotel rates that undercut Midtown.

Questions people ask about Hotel 50 Bowery
What was found during construction?
Excavation uncovered eighteenth-century material from the Bull's Head Tavern site, some of which is displayed in a small permanent exhibition inside the hotel.
