We only stayed for one night but were extremely happy with the hotel. We had booked two rooms but were upgraded to a suite - this meant our girls had to sleep on temporary beds in the lounge area. The suite was large and on the 6th floor. It had views so that was good. Not sure if this was a better deal than having 2 standard rooms as the girls did not get their own proper beds. We did however have two bathrooms. We were told this was cheaper than two rooms so we are expecting a refund but how this was to be done was all a bit vague as hotel booked through Hotels.com. However, the suite was great. It was in extremely good condition, the curtains, sofas, bed, lighting, TV and furniture all appeared nearly new. Bathrooms were well fitted and everything worked. Croissants and coffee a bonus at breakfast but won't replace "full English" if you are that type of person.
The best aspect of the hotel however is that it is close to a lot of the good things in New York. We went up the Top of the Rock at the Rockefeller Centre, walked in Central Park, shopped on 5th Avenue, saw Times Square and went to Moma. Another great feature was that the hotel took care of our bags on our return from our cruise for no fee a week after our original stay. This meant we had a hassle free day in New York until our flight later that night. This was a huge bonus for us and we really appreciated it. We would definitely stay here again. Room was quiet and if aircon was on, it was unobtrusive. We usually go for more modern hotels, but liked the charm of this although realise we had a very superior room.
