I’ve traveled and stayed at multiple hotels and this place was by far the biggest disappointment. The junior suit we stayed in had wall paper peeling, damaged doors and furniture, horribly uncomfortable beds and very rude security staff. Me and my family were given another room after voicing our complaints but the replacement room was unacceptable as well with more damaged furniture, horrible beds and just not what you’d expect from a four star hotel in NYC.

The location next to Lincoln center is wonderful if you are attending their events! That's why we stay there. The rooms are spartan and in disrepair. The temperature in our room was comfortable only if we set the thermostat at 60 degrees (in January). One morning we had no hot water. The room next to us had a small dog that barked at just about everything.

Great location near Central Park, needs updating

Great location but hotel is run down. Our heater made so much noise we finally turned it off. The nightstand drawer would not stay closed. The shower was good, but the bathroom finishes were cheap and sloppy paint job & old fixtures. The beds were OK. The pillows were marginal and the wallpaper in the hallway is a little terrifying - some strange black prints in gold picture frames. Thousands of them! The hotel staff was very friendly and the location was excellent walking distance to Central Park.

The rooms are run down and need a renovation. Beds were horrible. So hard and very uncomfortable. We almost went down to lobby or mezzanine to sleep on the sofas. Location is perfect just wish the hotel was in better condition and beds were more comfortable. Felt like you were sleeping on wood!

Nice Area, Great Staff

Stayed here with family in early January, and it was nice. The staff is excellent, from the doormen to the valet to the front desk to even housekeeping and maintenance! They were all very helpful. The rooms are typically NY-small, but they are adequate. The only issue we had was we couldn't really adjust the heat to a higher setting; the room stayed about 68-69 degrees, and we wanted it a little bit warmer. But, we managed with blankets and comforters. The lobby is busy, and the elevators, also. The rooftop bar is really nice, and I recommend this property for a city stay away from tourist-areas.
