Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was beyond amazing! The rooms were spacious and very comfortable, making it larger and more comfortable than other hotels at this price range. However, there was a bit of noise when the patio was in use until 10 pm and I had to change rooms after the first night, which was a minor inconvenience.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful. The rooms were very spacious and clean, offering a comfortable retreat. The excellent breakfast and evening Cheese and Wine were a wonderful touch. However, the room lacked a view and was quite dark.
The hotel offers clean and super-comfortable rooms, though slightly tired, making for a cozy stay. The service provided is always very helpful and pleasant. The location is excellent, providing easy access to various attractions in New York City. The dining experience offers a good selection of breakfast options and friendly staff. A welcoming oasis on Park Avenue with a few minor room issues.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were comfortable and of a good size, but in need of some restoration and maintenance. The service, however, was incredible, from the doorman to the housekeeper. The location was perfect for easy access to various attractions, but the dining options were limited. Overall, it offered good value for the money.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms, though not huge, were very luxurious and attention to detail, like the ribbon-tied spare loo roll, made it special. The location was perfect, close to iconic NY spots but the nearby offices meant the blinds had to be closed. The service was exceptional, from breakfast trays to evening Happy Hours. The dining options were more than satisfying with complimentary offerings. Overall, a great spot with some minor inconveniences.
