Summary of traveller reviews

Interfaith Retreats in New York offers a peaceful and welcoming atmosphere, ideal for solo travellers seeking rest after a busy day. Guests consistently praise the exceptional location, very close to Penn Station, making city exploration effortless. The staff are frequently highlighted for their kindness and attentiveness. While the private cubicles offer a sense of personal space, some guests note that the lack of full ceilings means noise can travel, though earplugs are provided. The complimentary breakfast is also a popular feature.

Location and staff was great. The bed in the room was a little uncomfortable but it was private.

I had a lovely stay at Interfaith Retreats it was super close to Penn station and made getting around absolutely seamless. My room was clean and ready for me when I arrived. The only thing I will say is that, even though they are private rooms - there is no roof on the rooms so you can see if someone has a light on at night or when going to sleep can hear some movement. However, they provide ear-plugs if you need them which are very handy. I am a heavy sleeper so I didn't have any problems.

This was a great place to stay! This was my first solo trip and I felt completely safe walking around the area at all times of day. The hostel workers were so sweet and helpful. I would definitely stay here again
