Incentra Village Hotel in New York City on the lower West Side near Blecker Street.
A relatively small gay friendly hotel. I have never had a problem bringing an attractive 20 something male to my room.
True also of the SoHo Grand Hotel in New York. Not specifically gay friendly, but again no problem bringing anyone to your room ?. This hotel is located in an interesting neighborhood.
Incentra Village does not feel like a gay hotel as in Provincetown because some straight European travelers also stay there.
