Hudson's Hideaway

Holiday Rental Description

Sitting pretty in the ever-changing neighbourhood of Hudson Square, this recently built apartment has a pretty big trick up its sleeve – head out onto the terrace and guests are treated to a glorious view of the Hudson River, Jersey City to the front and some of Manhattan's landmarks to either side. Better still, with this western orientation, it's a fabulous spot for catching the sunset.

It would seem that the architect was only too aware of how beautiful this panorama is as almost every room in the house is blessed with huge windows that are nothing but generous when it comes to natural light. It might take you a moment to get around to giving the interior design a closer look, but when you do, you'll find sophistication in every corner, from the super-sleek kitchen and equally glossy bathrooms to the flourishing house plants and characterful wildlife motifs to be spotted throughout.

It should be highlighted that the home's location is excellent for those hoping to see as much of Manhattan as possible. Tribeca lies within walking distance to the south, Soho sits to the east and Greenwich Village awaits to the north. As such, you won't have to venture far for galleries, restaurants or live music venues.

*Guests have access to a communal gym in the building
