Not worth even a fraction of the cost . Don’t waste your money at the Pierre
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Bad service for the very high price . No real luxury in any sense . Simple request made of putting two comforters on the bed with plenty of notice before arrival was not done . When we arrive very late at night , empty apologies , housekeeping showed up so late that we were already in bed after long wait . No explanation no compensation . At that price and with that reputation ? Terrible service and not charming

Stay away if you value your sleep and some quite
Pros:

Worst experience ever. Could not sleep or get a moment of peace. Hotel gave no notice or construction occurring at hotel prior on website or at check in. There was hammering and pounding on walls of hotel all day, non stop for hours. Could not rest or sleep. Lack of notification or willing to take rooms with direct drilling offline shows a complete lack of compassion for your guests. Worst experience ever imaginable at hotel. And responses by staff showed lack of responsibility and further lack of compassion for your guest.

Would stay again!
Pros:

A great location right on Central Park. Easy access to mass transit, too. The hotel is lovely, in an old school sort of way, but very clean and well-maintained. The staff was attentive and very gracious. They really made our stay the excellent experience it was!

A perfect hotel.
Pros:

Perfect hotel. The front desk was wonderful. The restaurant consistently delicious. The people always kind and helpful. The location was excellent. Our American Express upgrade was not only honored, but we were upgraded a few levels above the requisite into a gorgeous suite. Again, a perfect experience. The Pierre will always be our home away from home.
