Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. While the view from the room can be stunning once the sky clears, be cautious of crane obstruction blocking the scenery. The room itself was a bit chilly, but the location near Union Square is undeniably beautiful.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms facing the backside were in need of an upgrade and felt a bit small and cold, but the location was ideal for my city activities. The service was a letdown due to rude behavior, but the lounge area was comfy for relaxation. The dining options were decent but could be improved for the price. Overall, a stay with some ups and downs.
The hotel offers nice, modern-looking rooms but they are a little dated. The view from the upper floors was interesting, although the rooms are in need of a complete upgrade. The housekeeping staff was very attentive. The service was a mix of casual conversations amongst themselves and appropriate measures taken for guest convenience. The location is superb, near Times Square but a bit pricey for the value. The dining experience was not pleasant during the renovation, feeling like a lower-priced hotel in NJ.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room was spacious and flooded with light, which was great. The location was fantastic with easy access to various attractions, but be cautious with the room selection. The service was efficient, especially in resolving any issues. The dining options were delicious, although limited due to ongoing renovations. The facilities were good but could use some updating.
