We stayed at the Belvedere Hotel from 11//26/11 - 11/29/11 and had an excellent experience. My husband, I , and (2) teenagers were very impressed from the moment we first arrived. The dorrman and bell hop met our taxi at the door and immediately took care of our luggage. We arrived at 10:30 am and the hotel staff were great about storing our luggage so we could see the city until a room was ready for check-in. We were able to complete all the paperwork ahead of time so all we needed to do when we were done sight seeing is just pick up our room keys at the front desk. This hotel is in a perfect location for just about anything you want to do. very close to times square, herold square, subway, rockafeller plaza, and restaurant row.
We had the executive double double room which had the most comfortable beds ever! They were great to come back to after being out and about all day. My daughter enjoyed soaking in the especially large bathtub, and the great waffle bath robes. The housekeeping staff was wonderful and did an excellent job with tidying up the room and making sure we had everything we needed while there.
There is a very nice small convienece store in the hotel which was great to have when my son had a 24 hr stomach bug the day after we arrived. All the medicine he needed was right there at a reasonable price. Having the in room fridge and microwave was nice to be able to keep gatorade cold for him and warm up chicken soup. Housekeeping staff were very kind and even asked how he was feeling later in the day.
We were there during the unseasonable warm spell 65 - 70 degrees in November and at night had a hard time regulating the thermostadt, and eventually decided on just opening the windows for fresh air. I am sure the hotel staff would have been more than happy to help us with the thermostadt, but we did not ask for help as the open windows worked well.
I can't say enough about how courteous, respectful, and helpful every staff member was at the Belvedere. We are looking forward to returning there the next time we visit New york City and my family and I would highly reccomend this hotel to anyone. Look no further, this is the best place to stay!
My only suggestion to the hotel would be to consider adding a small table or shelf to fit under the bathroom sink to help store guests make-up, hair products, etc.
