Live like a local at Hotel Indigo Lower East Side, New York. Step off the street and into street art. Our one-of-a-kind lobby mural, created by graffiti legend Lee Quinones, is an unexpected greeting that sets the tone for the creative vibe you’ll find throughout our hotel. Whether you’re snapping photos of our spectacular Manhattan skyline views or kicking back with a crafted cocktail at our rooftop bar, Mr. Purple, our urban oasis is the perfect place to start your New York City journey. We’re steps away from the best local bars, street installations, and attractions—and we’re happy to show you around our neighborhood.
