Lotte New York Palace

Midtown, New York

Star rating

The hotel

Railroad magnate Henry Villard's 19th-century mansions were combined with a sleek tower to create one of the city's best hotels. It's a place where the staff greet you as if they have known you all their lives, and nothing is too much trouble. The location is one of the best in Manhattan, right in the middle of Midtown, but hidden away in a gated courtyard. There's dining options suited to all at the Lotte New York Palace, from luxury brunch to baked goods, whatever you opt for you'll be in for a treat. Enjoy handmade cocktails in one of Manhattan's most popular bars, Trouble's Trust, or relax in 19th century-style surroundings in Rarities - either make for the perfect post-day-in-the-city tipples.

Beautiful Hotel- but check in time usually takes a hour and mattress felt old / springey and weak water pressure in the shower. besides that it was a beautiful hotel.

This hotel is simply incredible. Beautiful, great location and just the best staff. J. Peter Lowery at the front desk ensured I had the most perfect stay after a long hot trip in. Also the beds were the best sleep Ive ever had.

Have stayed at Lotte NY Place for many years. One of NY's finest, in our opinion. Efficient, friendly staff. Noticed the same staff in place year after year. Great location, out of all the hustle and bustle of NY, but within walking distance to most things NY has to offer. Wonderful service throughout the hotel, and nice amenities.

Our stay at the towers was made extra special because of Christian Ribeiro, concierge. He is a great resource for restaurants and what to see while in NYC. This is our second visit and we will return again because of Christian. He even knows all about labubus too. Christian is the best concierge in NYC and the best at the Palace!

The staff at this hotel were incredibly accommodating, and I have never experienced anything like it before. Our time at the New York Marathon was unforgettable, especially with the help of Maurice, who was exceptional in assisting my husband after he unfortunately broke his femur during the race. Kathaleya from the concierge was also extremely accommodating. Every morning and evening, the warm greetings from our favourite staff members, Mike, Papa, and Ray, and one very special man who made us feel like we were part of a family rather than just guests at a hotel. Although we were far from home, the genuine care and professional approach of the staff made us feel truly valued and cared for. Read less
