Where to begin? The hotel was booked through Virgin Holidays are a recommended location, if your arriving at Penn Station from JFK be mindful if your walking up 7th Avenue with your luggage its 19 blocks up a trek! Once inside the hotel all I can say is disorganised chaos! the reception area was manic people all over the place turns out there was a childrens dance competion in all the ballrooms so the hotel was simply ridiculous, we checked in and asked on a number of occasions if the room had a fridge? the chap on reception advised no and would see if any was around? in the end we upgraded to the suite on level 17, price wasnt to bad to be fair $680 extra for four nights. Now the lifts in the hotel are an ordeal, you waste your time waiting for them, the lifts do not have the conventional press a button in the lift and select your floor, no its a keypad outside the lift, select the floor get allocated a lift and wait, be prepated we waited 20 minutes one night, in the end I climbed 17 flights of stairs to get to my room, it really is the most ridiculous system ever. Rooms are spacious and the beds are unbeleivably comfortable I cannot fault the room apart from in our suite we had faulty AC in one room it was like an oven and the other part of the room had a cold shower only? reported to reception it was reftified but unacceptable. The bar area can be a farce when busy, we entered the bar on 05th July passing a queue I believed was for food, only for the bar manager to approach us at the bar and humiliate us in front of a busy bar asking us why we had cut the line ? and bypassed the line? i advised him embarrassed that we didnt realise the line down the corridor was for drinks as well as food! as nobody was there policing it how would he? we immediatley went to the back of the line and wiated. In conclustion disappointed is the word i'd use, i've stayed in many Manhattan hotels sadly the chaos and the lack of control caused me to distance myself and feel isolated, we won't be coming back sorry Read less

This is a name brand (Sheraton) now owned and operated by another name brand (Mattiot) hotel in one of NYC Manhattan's prime location. It bears 4 stars. The experience is unbecoming of 4 stars. And while it may rightfully seem that the quality of the stay is negatively affected by some work being done on the hotel's genereal areas, the hotels suffers from what would seem many years of lack of up-keeping, bearing the look, feel and smell of a run down property. There is a total lack of service and service supervision. 2 out of 5 days, our rooms did not get any service until the afternoon. We had to call for it, another day, we found the room only half "done" (one bed done, the other left unattended). The bathroom has mold around the bath tub seal and most of the the faucets are loose or poorly "fixed up" with cheap part (white plastic shower hose like those used on trailer homes and cheap weekly rate efficiencies-motels, loose chrome parts, faucets installed the wrong way around. A toilet of the smallest version, wall paper coming off, the bath door bearing oxidation thru over-paint at it's bottom). I had to you-tube research how to reset the room safe, because upon calling in about the problem, I still did not have service within 30 min. So, I reset the safe myself. We have observed check-in lines going twice the width of the lobby... people waiting over 2 hours to check in, only 3 people attending to them. We got lucky arriving the day before. Internet (WiFi) did not work for almost 24 hours. Service desk (call) is aware of most the issues... mostly your get an automated "all representatives are currently assisting other customers", for as many calls or few personnel they have. We have called and emailed the hotel 5 times during our stay. I must say that the "Destination Fee" they bill you directly at the hotel got cancelled. But until this hotel is rebuilt and management regains control over the service flow, I CANNOT recommend this hotel, and only warn against it. Read less

I have stayed in this resort pre ownership change and post. In one word - it is a disaster property and frankly I am surprised Marriott doesn’t pull the name.

I have stayed in this resort pre ownership change and post. In one word - it is a disaster property and frankly I am surprised Marriott doesn’t pull the name. Everything is run down Rooms In bad need of face lift, though large by NYC standards. However, cleaning is now just an afterthought. Not done well. Workout facility Once one of the best in NYC (sole reason to stop there) is now completely abandoned. No water bottles, equipment is broken. Finally they got towels in. The peloton studio is completely wrecked. What a shame. Restaurants and property staff Bad and worse. It appears that current ownership is trying to bleed the property dry or perhaps the have liquidity issues, either way they don’t spend on staff and it shows. Nor do they spend on property. Marriott - what are you thinking? Read less

Their elevator system is unintuitive and caused many long waits. There seemed to be long lines to check in quite often, but we got in on a Thursday evening with no significant line. Room was fine, but didn't have a mini fridge because it was a disabled room (not something we requested). Water pressure in the shower was horrible, the water temperature also fluctuated significantly. Some of the staff was nice, one representative gave me a good Pizza restaurant recommendation, but the guy who checked us in should be working at a morgue with how cold he was. The staff wouldn't help us find the stairs when the elevator lines were too long. The location is great, and that is why they probably don't bother with making the stay very nice at all. Read less

Every time I walked past the reception area it was a mix of obstacle course and pity for those poor souls endlessly waiting in line to check-in. This was the case well into the night. Then, there are the elevators, which are the main character in the saga of this Sheraton. We formed long-term relationships with our fellow travelers as we grew older together waiting interminably for a ride, regaling our journeys and failed attempts at locating the stairs. (FYI, follow arrows to the Starbucks and keep winding around for the escape route to the hidden staircase) Here's a tip for the manager of this hotel. Take a 10 minute walk over to the Chick-fil-A over on 6th Ave during the height of the lunch hour. Watch and learn. Read less
