Great place and awesome upgrade
Pros:

Great location close to grand central station and subway. Lovely place. Early check in was well received and needed in this heat, staff friendly and even to offer to leave luggage, thank you. Manager messaged too which is great and couldn't be any more helpful. Coffee machine, fridge. Big bed very nice, huge room got an upgrade. Toiletries. Great shower walk in too. Very good hotel for the price thank you. Would visit again. And recommended to friends.

Cons:

Card declined as wasn't prepared to pay deposit. It gives welcome drink, fast internet (but disconnects and is actually slow)
Water machines but didn't dispense. AC keeps randomly going on all day and night and people making noise banging doors.

After posting the review. Been in a back and forth as my clothing items have gone missing which were left in the room. Weren't very helpful or offered compensation.

Perfect hotel for a business trip in midtown.
Pros:

I love this hotel. It's the second time I go there and I really have nothing bad to say about it. It's really modern, clean and comfortable. The bed is heaven, the bathroom is chic and the location is perfect for me.

Cons:

an overpriced car services to the airport that was proposed to me by the hotel but NY is NY... everything is expensive.

A clean and well-located Midtown hotel with small rooms.
Pros:

The hotel’s location was one of its strongest features, offering convenient access to Grand Central Terminal, the United Nations, key Midtown attractions, and restaurants. The room was clean. The bed was comfortable. The hotel also has a modern, wellness-oriented design. In particular, the bar staff were friendly and attentive. The housekeeping team was consistently kind, respectful, and professional.

Cons:

The rooms are notably small and would benefit from additional space and seating, such as a small sofa, particularly for guests staying several days. The front-desk service was adequate but wasn't helpful and lacked flexibility.
Although the hotel’s stated check-out time is 11:00 a.m., I requested a one-hour extension until 12:00 noon so that I could complete an online meeting scheduled from 11:00 to 11:30 a.m. The request was declined without apparent consideration of my seven-night stay. While I understand that late check-out is subject to availability, a more flexible approach would have been appreciated.

Great hotel in a great location
Pros:

This is a great hotel with a great location. Check in is very quick even if you have to go up to the 2nd floor. The hotel staff were nice and they even watched our luggage on our last afternoon in NYC. It was very packed for the World Cup as it was the week that Spain vs Argentina were playing. So the elevators took a while but I will say it was very quiet in the hallways which was nice and given the hotel was almost full that was really nice to see. The rooms are a bit small but for New York it is normal. The rooms were clean and the bed was just right (not too hard or not too soft) and they included many pillows. We were up on the 9th floor back side of the building and didn't really hear any road noise. The bathroom was clean and had plenty of hot water and good water pressure. I liked the fact the room had a Keurig and the cleaning staff kindly gave me extra pods. I never had the breakfast but there is a cafe that has really good bagels close by. In the lobby they have flavored water which is nice on a hot day in July. It was very hot in New York that week but the AC worked very well and kept the room cool. It was a bit expensive but I bet any other week besides World Cup it would be much more affordable. Overall I would recommend this hotel.

Good location, but overall underwhelming.
Pros:

I stayed for 6 nights in August 2025 on a business trip. The location was convenient, which was the biggest advantage, but overall the experience was only average. The rooms were fairly small, and the noise level made it harder to rest properly. Cleanliness was acceptable, but nothing stood out, and the atmosphere felt functional rather than comfortable. Service was inconsistent, and while the staff were polite, the stay did not feel especially welcoming. The amenities were limited compared with expectations, so I would rate the hotel as average to below average overall.
