Best Hotel in NYC
Pros:

The Bryant Park Hotel is the best hotel in NYC. The location is perfect for transit to and from any of the airports and a short walk to Penn or Grand Central Station.
The rooms are comfortable but the real winner are the staff. They truly go out of their way to make you feel like its your home away from home.

Celon Engagement Party Success!!
Pros:

We loved having our engagement party at Celon! Brooke especially was great to work with and helped us find the right setup and package for our event. The service was impeccable for the event and everyone had the best time! I strongly recommend hosting events at Celon as they have a great all-in service. The bar manager Gabe and manager Scott were also great!

High quality, historic hotel in a splendid location.
Pros:

Fabulous location, the staff were very helpful and the hotel history is very interesting.
I also liked the cellar bar and super bedroom

Cons:

There was work going on to the exterior which although not a permanent problem was a bit disappointing due to noise outside the windows.. drilling, banging etc.

Thank you Jo, outstanding welcome!
Pros:

Thank you Jo (reception) for the warm welcome. You made our stay. Your friendly, personal and authentic approach was much appreciated. The small things matter, and your detail was superb. My son who lives in NYC stayed a few days with me. I will be back.

Snowstorm Outside, Five-Star Experience Inside!
Pros:

From the moment we booked, the service was absolutely exceptional. Even before we arrived, the team reached out to ensure every detail of our stay was taken care of, which immediately set the tone for what turned out to be a perfect trip. Travelling during the NYC snowstorm could have been stressful, but the hotel handled everything seamlessly and made us feel completely at ease.

A very special thank you to Jo, the Guest Relations Manager, who was truly outstanding. Jo went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed, checking in thoughtfully throughout our stay. Shelton was equally fantastic — warm, attentive, and always willing to help with a smile. Both of them genuinely elevated our experience and made us feel valued as guests.

The room itself (Junior suite #402) was newly renovated, beautifully designed, and spotless. What stood out most was how spacious it was — particularly impressive for a New York City hotel room. It felt luxurious yet comfortable, the perfect retreat after a snowy day in the city.

To make our stay even more special, the team surprised me for my birthday with cupcakes, a thoughtful card, and a balloon waiting in the room — such a lovely and personal touch that meant so much.

Despite the winter storm outside, our stay was flawless. We wouldn’t hesitate to return and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting NYC.

What a rare find!
Pros:

Wonderful location, and the Bryant Park across the street is an added treasure. Excellent value for the suites that we had! Very roomy living room, very clean, a comfortable bed, very nice bathroom, and outside noise level? … almost none. The staff was kind, courteous, helpful, attentive…and there was a bottle of Prosecco with a happy birthday balloon waiting in our room! We have stayed in a lot of places in New York City, and this is definitely one of the best. We loved it and definitely will be back . My only suggestion is that for a longer stay than just a weekend, a small size refrigerator for outside snacks would be nice… maybe a small microwave for popcorn at night.

Home away from home
Pros:

We had a wonderful time! The hotel and staff were excellent. Jo Kinsella at the front desk was especially thoughtful and made sure our grandson had coloring supplies at his birthday celebration! Could not have asked for a better hotel experience.

Hit it out of the (Bryant) Park

While our stay was very short, we found the hotel to be absolutely lovely, with a great location, beautiful rooms, and a friendly and helpful staff. If given the opportunity, we will happily stay here again.

Perfect Hotel near everything!
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel overlooking Bryant Park. We upgraded to the park view suite which was perfect for working as well as sleeping. Great bed and nice robes and the view is always interesting and fun. The staff is very friendly and helpful from the moment you walk in the doorman always helps with the big beautiful doors and the front desk folks all very helpful. Great location to so many coffee shops and restaurants and easy walk to almost everywhere.

Fantastic stay at this beautiful gem!
Pros:

I can’t say enough good things about this hotel. The rooms, with high ceilings and windows, are well appointed and spacious for New York. The bathroom is luxurious with a deep tub and nice amenities. I tried the restaurant Koi both for breakfast and dinner and it was very good. I also went to the lounge Celon to hear their featured jazz music, which is a really great plus. Another plus is the location— walking distance from two Broadway Plays that I was seeing, Grand Central Station, and great shops on 5th Avenue. But the most important thing I want to point out is the service. When I walked in John, the desk manager greeted me by name and was continually warm and helpful throughout my stay. I had one issue—the building was being renovated and my room was so loud in the afternoon because of jackhammers. This could have been a dealbreaker as I needed to do an important meeting in my room. I went to the desk to ask to change it and Siobhan, who I believe is the manager, guided me to a quiet place in the closed lounge. She brought me water, set me at a table with power for my computer, and offered to bring me anything. I needed. This extra service and attention is what made this hotel so special. Amy hotel can have a problem — it’s how the hotel deals with it that makes it spectacular. I don’t normally write long reviews, but this Hotel is deserved. I hope to stay here when I’m back in New York.

Perfection
Pros:

Everything about our week-long stay at the hotel (other than the freezing cold weather outside) was perfection. We stayed in a renovated park view studio suite and I can't imagine staying anywhere else in the future. The room is bright with an amazing view of Bryant Park. The furnishings are beautiful with a super comfortable bed, working table (with the view), and everything running quietly (the heating system, mini-fridge, etc....(I'm sensitive to noises). Housekeeping did an outstanding job of making up our room and accomodating any requests. Mini-muffins greet you next to the elevator in the lobby in the morning. The Japanese restaurant attached to the hotel is great and one of the most happening restaurants you can imagine and the bar area downstairs in the hotel absolutely beautiful. Everyone who worked at the hotel who we met was incredibly lovely and helpful - from folks opening the doors to reception. It is just such a well-run hotel on every level. And the size of the hotel is perfect - not tiny and not institutional at all - just right. In fact, everything was right about the stay and can't wait to return.
