Hostel Highbridge House

( New York , United States )

The quiet and relaxing Highbridge House youth hostel hotel is the perfect budget option for young people who want to meet like minded travellers to New York City. This excellent location is ideal for its close proximity to restaurants, shopping and some of New York City’s best attractions. Also you get the flavour of Harlem- the main thoroughfare of this famous NY area is 125th Street, where you can find the famous Apollo Theater, a concert venue which has been a rite of passage for rising musical talent. The Harlem Week/Harlem Jazz & Music Festival is an annual summer festival taking place each August, with food tasting, art exhibits, concerts, seminars, music, street entertainment, sporting events and an auto show. Any day is a good one to come uptown, but Sundays are, for many, the best time to hear gospel singing at several churches. This location offers 32 quiet and clean private rooms, free high-speed wireless Internet access, daily housekeeping and free linens and towels. Private suites provide one double bed or bunk beds and a shared bathroom. There is a kitchen available for all guests. The rooms are sparse but beautiful in their austerity with hard wood floors and wrought iron filigree bed ends. There is a TV lounge, a safe, left luggage storage and a reception which will be happy to help you find your way around town. Cheap and cheerful with no frills in Harlem!
