“Pretty nice hotel”

Sep 14, 2025Navigator398891

Pretty nice hotel. Loved the decor - modern and cool. The in-room Keurig and mini fridge were great. Loved the robes. The shower was nice but wish the bathroom had more counter space/shelves or hooks to hang a towel. Not enough room for our stuff. The bellmen were great and even gave us umbrellas for the day when it rained. Wish we'd had a better view as our room looked at the hotel air conditioner. Would stay again.

“Excellent experience”

Aug 28, 2025Achraf D

Absolutely loved my stay at The Benjamin Royal Sonesta Hotel! The rooms were spacious, beautifully decorated with brand-new furniture, and the bedding was incredibly comfortable — I slept like a dream. The staff was outstanding: professional, attentive, and truly went the extra mile. I had a small issue with a package that arrived after I had checked out, and they handled everything perfectly, making sure it was returned to me at home. The location couldn’t be better — just steps from the subway and close to so many of New York’s main attractions. I can’t wait to come back on my next visit to NYC!
