Beautiful building in a great location for access to all NYC fun. So lovely to have a tall ceiling and space in the room. The restaurant downstairs has great coffee and breakfast and the staff in the hotel are very friendly.

I will return

After staying in a lot of hotels over the years in NYC, I think I have found a great quality for price ratio with this hotel. The room had to have been recently renovated and the bathrooms were tiled from floor to the ceiling and there were no mildew stains that you normally find on old hotel bathrooms revealing just how recently the room had been renovated. They also had something I had not seen before in the hotels I normally stay at in NYC, they had an umbrella in the closet to use during our stay along with the the other amenities a good hotel should have. The staff was very friendly and since my wife wanted Italian food, they recommended a very nice restaurant just across the street that was very good. One of the best aspects of the hotel was the door next to the elevator bank that opened up into the French restaurant that is on the corner of the building. We ate there three times' and had three wonderful meals without having to go outside in the cold. I will definitely check out the hotel to see if the prices have changed much since this visit. If they are about the same, I will definitly be staying there again.

Very good and centrally located property. Rooms are good. The staff were courteous and helpful especially when i wanted a room change as i was not feeling good in the earlier one. The outside dining also was good. Couldn't try their lunch and dinner options, only breakfast i tried.
