The hotel was very clean, comfortable bed, nice staff and most important that the breakfast was delivered to my room so I didn’t need to worry about missing the breakfast timetable.

Alasdair from United Kingdom (7/10)
Breakfast was good
Ali from Lebanon (7/10)
the room itself was good and of decent size, the bed is actually comfortable. what I really liked the bathroom in terms of space, comfort and the generous size of the stand in shower – the water pressure and temperature were way below what is required.
Rod from Australia (9/10)
The hotel is really well located with restaurants and bars within a short distance. We mainly walked everywhere and took a day tour so can’t comment on the subway but I’m sure it was close by. Great patisseire accross the road. We were upgraded to a deluxe room which was great. The room itself and the bathroom were specious and as we were on a high floor the views were wonderful. The breakfast is served in the adjoining bar/restaurant, which although only had limited al la carte choice, it was all you needed and the quality was very good. Friendly and helpful staff. We would definitely stay again when in NY.
