Editorial take
Who should book The Roxy Hotel Tribeca?
If this is your first New York trip, shortlist The Roxy Hotel Tribeca for a practical reason: Film and music, couples, downtown exploring, repeat visitors. The name, star rating and lobby photos matter, but the real test is whether the location helps your days feel easier.
It is less compelling if you want quiet nights or a midtown base. Before booking from the UK, compare the final price after taxes and property fees, check the exact room setup and make sure your airport arrival route is not needlessly awkward.

Hotel facts
What to know before booking.
First-timer context
Why The Roxy Hotel Tribeca might feel special.
What it is known for
- The Roxy Cinema is a 118-seat theatre in the hotel, styled after the 1920s picture palaces, screening film rather than only serving as a screening room.
- The hotel runs live jazz regularly, which makes the ground floor a genuine downtown venue rather than a hotel bar.
- It traded as the Tribeca Grand before its rebrand, so older reviews and guidebooks use that name.
New York moments
- Church Bar, its cocktail bar, programmes DJs and live music and draws a local crowd rather than only guests.
On screen
- The in-house cinema is the point: this is one of very few hotels anywhere with a working repertory screen.
Review questions
What travellers keep asking.
Can guests use the cinema?
The Roxy Cinema runs a public programme of screenings, so guests can book like anyone else. Check what is showing during your stay, as it changes constantly.
Is this the old Tribeca Grand?
Yes, the same building on the SoHo and Tribeca border. It rebranded as The Roxy, so reviews under the Tribeca Grand name refer to this hotel.

Check these before you reserve.
Total price
Look beyond the nightly rate. Check taxes, destination fees, breakfast and cancellation.
Room layout
For New York, room size, bathroom privacy, bed type and storage can matter more than star rating.
Arrival route
Match the hotel to your airport, luggage and arrival time, especially after an overnight UK flight.
