We had a great time. Excellent location, great cocktails. Overall our stay was excellent and we would stay again but the queue for breakfast was ridiculous.

The room was great and location fab. Although, absence of tea and coffee facilities in room very noticeable. Not happy about resort fees but, that is not down to staff. The reception staff and other staff were very good and very helpful. Lifts worked well and were quick and efficient. Reception staff did read a message I'd sent a few days before…

The reception staff and other staff were very good and very helpful. Lifts worked well and were quick and efficient. Reception staff did read a message I'd sent a few days before and actioned my request, which was appreciated. We slept well, it was a comfy bed. I would recommend this hotel.

Checked in online as this shortens the process when at the hotel, ours was quick and easy. Room was light and airy and the beds were the most comfortable I’ve experienced in a hotel. Towels were really good and the fridge was ample big enough for our needs. The breakfast was much better than expected with everything you could want, including fruits, yogurts, cheeses, meats, bread, bagels, pastries, bacon, scrambled eggs, mushrooms etc, hot and cold drinks. The location was within a 5 minute walk to Times Square so in an ideal position for exploring. We walked to Central Park and Bryant park and the rest of the time we used the hop on hop off bus which was a great buy. I wouldn’t hesitate booking this hotel again if I ever visited New York again.
