Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was delightful, with clean and comfortable rooms and a very friendly staff. The location is superb, offering easy access to various attractions. However, the dining prices were a bit high, and the dining options could be more diverse.
The hotel is situated in the heart of midtown Manhattan, offering convenience with dining options, proximity to Central Park, and a vibrant feel. The rooms are spacious, well-decorated, and had all the essentials for a comfortable stay, although lacking digital device connections. Service is top-notch with friendly and helpful staff offering a range of amenities. The dining options are available but may seem pricey compared to alternatives nearby. Overall, a great location with comfortable rooms and excellent service, though dining could be more budget-friendly.
The hotel has small but very well-appointed rooms, making them comfortable. The service is knowledgeable, helpful, and the staff genuinely enjoy their job. The location is incredibly convenient to multiple subway lines and high-end shopping. The dining experience, although a bit pricey, offers good variety. Overall, a great choice in the heart of New York.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not-so-good experiences. The room I booked three months in advance was spacious, comfortable, and decorated with interesting old books, which I loved. However, it also happened to be the worst room I've ever experienced in NYC. The service was exceptional, with professional, friendly, and attentive staff who regaled us with stories about the lounge and its guests. The location was just fabulous, right in the heart of Midtown, close to all the hotspots. The dining options were decent, but a bit on the expensive side for what was offered.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with the convenience of a great Midtown Manhattan location and friendly service. However, the dining options were not the best, and the rooms were NYC-small but well-equipped with essential amenities. The location was really good for exploring the city.
Staying at this historic hotel in such a great location was amazing. The rooms, though small, were very well appointed and comfortable, but could use a bit of updating. The service truly made me feel welcome, and the location was fabulous for exploring Manhattan. The dining options were available but a bit expensive. Overall, a memorable stay with some minor areas for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room, while a bit on the small side, was clean; however, being positioned right in front of the lift made it hard to sleep due to the noise of people talking and waiting for the lift, especially late at night. On the positive side, the location was superb, right in Midtown Manhattan close to various attractions, but the noise from garbage trucks was a downside. The dining was good but overpriced, and the service, although friendly, was quite bustling and noisy.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel despite some drawbacks. The room was fine, though I was worried it might be small, and it turned out to be smallish along with the baths. The corner side location provided a poor view, making it feel a bit gloomy at times. The service was spectacular, with the very friendly young doorman being a standout. The location was great, close to many attractions like Times Square and theaters, but heavy traffic made transportation a bit challenging. The dining options were a bit pricey but satisfactory. Overall, a mixed experience with some highs and lows.
