What to pack for a stay at Roxy Hotel New York
Pack for a downtown New York hotel stay: city-friendly clothes for daytime exploring and smarter outfits for evening jazz or The Django, plus basic toiletries, chargers, and any pet supplies if you’re traveling with an animal. Include a reusable umbrella, comfortable walking shoes, and layers—Roxy Hotel New York rooms have minibars and 24-hour fitness but no pool or on-site spa.
