SIMPLY THE BEST!

This has for decades been one of my single favorite places to stay in NYC! From the staff, David, Randall, Ivan and Romeo and more.. to the spacious rooms, comfy beds with super pillows, an elegant lobby and second floor leisure and business floor, everything is top tier! The location is absolutely perfect with multiple dining, shopping, banks, ATMs, drug stores and grocery options within blocks away! There really is no better place in my personal opinion.

We love the Fifty Sonesta and have stayed there several times. The staff is amazing and the location is perfect walk to subways, Rockefeller Center, Time Square etc.. all the attractions plus shopping on Madison Ave. I can’t say enough about how great the staff is. They are remodeling rooms which they need but we still stay here always. We will be back in April!

No volveria al fifty sonesta

Mucha bulla de la calle porque el hotel esta alado de una estación de bomberos y policias. 1 solo maletero que nunca llego por las maletas. No tiene aire acondicionado en todo el hotel solo calentador. Hacia calor en la habitación. Cama muy comoda. Buena ubicación cerca de 5 ave.
