The Hotel – A designer dream by name and nature
Tucked into one of New York City’s trendiest neighbourhoods home to world-class shopping, tech offices and landmarks like the Whitney Museum of American Art and famous Flatiron Building, Dream Downtown, by Hyatt fits in perfectly with its effortless style and charm.
Inside the hotel’s four walls, a world of daring and decisive design choices treat guests to a playful stay where porthole windows frame internal gardens and the surrounding cityscape. Inspired by its former life as the National Maritime Union headquarters, the architecture harks back to the ships that helped build New York City while setting new trends in functional hotel living.
Escape the rat race and step into the hotel’s resort-style Dream Beach Club by Tao where a glass-bottom pool (open from 25 May until 7 September 2026), full-service bar and sand imported from the Caribbean invite guests to soak up the moment. The Lobby Bar, Natura Café and Philippe Downtown complete a suite of top-notch eateries and complement the city’s renowned street food culture.
