Everything you need to know about your visit to The Hidden Atelier.
We are located inside the Untitled Hotel at 3 Freeman Alley in the Lower East Side. The alley entrance is on Rivington Street between Christie and the Bowery. Enter the hotel and take the elevator to the lobby level.
Tuesday through Sunday, 12 PM to 8 PM. Earlier or later appointments are available by request.
All bookings happen through our scheduling system. Choose your service (tattoo or piercing), pick your artist, select a time, fill out the questionnaire, and confirm with a deposit. Visit our Booking page to get started.
Flash tattoos start at $150. Custom and larger work is priced based on the artist, size, complexity, and placement — your artist will quote you during your consultation or via the booking questionnaire.
Yes. A $50 non-refundable deposit is required to confirm every appointment. The deposit is applied to your final cost.
Most tattoos are completed within 1–3 hours. Piercings typically take 15–30 minutes. Larger custom pieces may require multiple sessions — your artist will confirm timing during booking.
Walk-ins are accepted for flash tattoos and consultations on a first-come, first-served basis. Booking ahead is always recommended to guarantee a slot with your preferred artist.
Contact us at least 48 hours before your appointment to reschedule without losing your deposit. Cancellations or reschedules made within 48 hours forfeit the $50 deposit.
Ephemeral is a specialized ink designed to fade naturally over 9–15 months. It is applied using traditional tattoo equipment and heals like a real tattoo, but uses bio-absorbable polymers that the body breaks down over time. It is perfect for those who love the art but aren't ready for forever.
Due to the intimate nature of our private studio, we ask that you bring no more than one guest. If the studio is at capacity, guests may be asked to relax in the hotel lobby or rooftop bar.
Please arrive well-rested, hydrated, and having eaten a meal within 4 hours. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior to your appointment. Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the area being tattooed.
