• Location near Central Park; Spacious room; Up to date appointments in room

“This hotel is top quality as it's rating implies. The rooms were spacious (we were given a suite) and comfortable--very up to date features in bathrooms. The staff was friendly and the service was excellent. Most importantly, the hotel is located in a perfect location for walking and seeing the sights of New York. I would highly recommend a stay at this hotel.”

• Great location; close to subway. Heavenly bed was very comfortable
• Room was tiny. Bathroom could have been cleaner. Shower was difficult to use. We were not able to use express checkout. Room with no view.

“We are from Long Island and knew not to have major expectations for the price we paid for this 4 star hotel. So we were not disappointed. Staff were friendly enough and we had a comfortable bed to put our heads down at night. That's as much as you need in NYC when you are spending most of your time enjoying the City.”

“A beautiful, stylish hotel. many rooms have no real views (although rooms overlooking Central Park must be spectacular). overall, we were EXTREMELY satisfied with our booking.”

• Very nice, clean. Beds very comfortable. Shower is great!
• Nothing to complain about.

“Went for a weekend in January 2005. Beautiful place to stay. Our room was small and did not face Central Park, but all the same it was gorgeous. The beds are so comfortable, and the shower is really great, too. Close enough to subway stations and easy to get cabs (doorman will do it for you). If you want to treat yourself to a luxurious hotel stay, this is a good place to do it. There is a great French cafe around the corner - Pain de Quotidien - where we went for breakfast every morning, and a very cool, low-key (and very dark!) NY bar - Whiskey Park (played music like U2, Coldplay, etc. and had comfy sofas and window seats to hang out in) - about 1 block in the other direction. Ask the concierge for directions to both. Central Park horse & carriage rides are right outside the hotel's front door. Valet parking is a bit pricey (we paid $45 per day w/o in-and-out privileges), but you don't really need your car in NYC. There are other parking garages very nearby, but we decided to spoil ourselves. I would certainly recommend this hotel.”

• We liked the location, the comfortable beds and bedding, our room was very quite from outside noises and the staff were friendly and helpful .
• We felt everything was in place our first night, the second night, the maid did not replace the bath cloths and robes in the room as had greeted us.

“This is a beautiful hotel which is located in an absolutely perfect location. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms are a good size. The heating/cooling system has a fan running which circulates air all the time and drowns out noises which would be heard from outside or from the hallway. The staff is friendly and very helpful answering any questions we had and giving directions to museums or theaters.”
