We really enjoyed being there and would use them next time. Had great stay by excellent customer service from Ms and the weather was wonderful. The staff was exceptionally kind plus the location was great! It was situated near restaurants and bars.

Perfect location, 5 minutes walk from the tube. Besides, easy access to Midtown East. Comfortable bed in suite with a mini fridge, a balcony, and a safe.

The air conditioning was quite loud, which disrupted my sleep, and I encountered some unexpected charges at check-in. It's a good spot for families looking for spacious accommodations with a central location.

We stayed here right after Thanksgiving. I prepaid for our queen suite but when we got there they had no queen rooms available. They offered me a $50 food credit which I thought was slightly insulting. We stayed in a double room and then they moved us to a queen room, we never got the room that was already paid for and they did not offer to reimburse me for the change. They also talked me into a $250 ride form the airport which I later found out only cost $75. Was not super impressed with the hotel as a whole. Won't stay here next time.
Great location but several other hotels on the same street so there are options.

We had a very good stay, loved this hotel and would stay here again. It was in a comfortable location with Rockefeller Center nearby.

would stay there again
The one-bedroom king suite was super spacious and comfy, with a kitchenette with a microwave, refrigerator, and coffee maker. Daily cleaning was on point. The location was super convenient too, near shops and two subway lines. The fitness center looked nice but I didn't get to check out the spa.

Location, equipment of the rooms, Internet/WLAN
The porters were a little pushy in trying to arrange a limo service.

The location is very good. The room is pleasantly large by NY standards. The bistro is very nice.
WLAN only for a fee. A little dusty.

Great stay with awesome staff!
The location was super convenient, and the beds were seriously comfortable. Big shoutout to Margaret, our housekeeper-she was a total gem. Jeremiah in the lobby was also really friendly. One downside, though, was that the hallway had a bit of an odd smell, which wasn't great.

The hotel is very good, the restaurant le National is very nice although very noisy. The rooms are spacious but be careful to take rooms in the heights to avoid noise although do not panic you are in NY anyway. You are close to everything and the subway is right in front of the hotel. it's pretty cool the hotel is pretty central to all the attractions in the city. Arm yourself with your sneakers and forward, NY is at your feet!!!!! We were on the 19th floor it was perfect, but not really by sight. We hadn't taken the breakfast option to go to the different nice places for lunch like the New Yorkers. In short I recommend this hotel, although with the tourist, night and city taxes you come out with a very heavy bill. I can't tell you anything about the SPA because we've never been or the gym.
The bathroom towels are quite small but enough so it's fine. On the other hand, they never refilled drinks and other things during the week we were there. WIFI is not free and it is quite a pity especially in our time. And it was quite expensive too. No breakfast at the hotel, you have to go to the National restaurant and as a result it is painful if you have bacon eggs. The hotel staff is not very smiling and rather rushed, remains the valet Jonathan who is very, very nice. Once we had to wait for the elevator for a long time because there are only 2 elevators and one was broken but keep cool you are on holiday! The airco in the lobby goes 10x too loud like everywhere else in NY.
