I guess I am fortunate in that I can sleep through most noises. Unfortunately my partner can’t, so I get woken up anyway. Noisest city for me was Madrid.

It sounds strange to say, but Zurich, Switzerland was incredibly loud the few nights I stayed there this past summer. New York IS loud, but, as a former New Yorker, I love it. If you stay in a hotel away from Times Square and look for a place in the Upper West or Upper East, it’s MUCH quieter.

Tokyo, Japan. At most in peak hours you can’t almost hear what your friends are saying especially while walking on sidewalks with the crowd of course.

For me Venice and Delhi were the noisiest but I think it depends on where you stay and the quality of the hotel (and their insulation). I’ve stayed in a few predominantly Muslim cities where the hotel was close to the dawn chanting from the minarets and that wakes you up as it is designed to do!!

So far, London and New York. They didn’t keep me awake every night though. I actually like the noise. For some reason it makes it easier to sleep.
