Great location and nice hotel but SO noisy
Pros:

Staff were great, loved the location

Cons:

It’s SO noisy. All I could hear all night (even through ear plugs) was sirens and cars and shouting. I know NYC is noisy but this was extremely noisy. I think the windows are too thin. I slept so badly here despite it being a lovely hotel

Pros:

Iconic bar and lobby.
The gym was handy.
Staff were great and so helpful.
Bed was very comfortable.
Whole place was great to work from, drop in and out of.

Cons:

Rooms are dark, gloomy and small - even with lights on.
Bathroom was as big as the rest of the room.
Water was $9 and hard to tell if you got the tea or coffee in your room included.
Safe wasn’t working but didn’t really need it.

Stellar Skyy Service (Check-in/Front Desk)
Pros:

I want to take a moment to recognize Skyy Moye for an outstanding check-in experience at Ace Hotel.

From the moment I arrived, Skyy set a tone that was both welcoming and professional — engaging, attentive, thoughtful, and informative all within the first few minutes. The impression she made was strong enough that I stopped to tell her so directly before even heading to my room.

As someone who travels frequently for business and chooses hotels based on either company policy or loyalty points, I don't say this lightly: Skyy's hospitality has me genuinely reconsidering where I stay. That is a testament to the kind of guest experience that builds real loyalty.

She is a standout member of your team and deserves to be recognized.
