I stayed at The Kimberly for three nights in October 2012. Overall, I was very impressed. Four of us stayed in a three bedroom unit on the 8th Floor (8H). The unit had three bedrooms: one with two double beds, one with a queen, and one with a king. Two bathrooms. The rooms were spacious enough and the beds were the most comfortable beds I've ever had in a hotel (and I travel a lot). The rooms were quiet enough for NY (usually a noisy city). I saw a review that said the rooms were dark, this is true. Overhead lighting (or more lights that were brighter) would have improved the situation but I didn't find it particularly troubling. The bathrooms were spacious and I did not have any issues with them. The staff at the hotel was very friendly but the standouts were the two concierges that assisted us throughout our stay. They were excellent. The one night we needed a restaurant recommendation, Kirsten (?) was able to get us into a great steakhouse at which the staff treated us above and beyond expectations as guests of The Kimberly. Dusty was very helpful in assisting us with advance reservations to tourist attractions. Both gave us great advice on how to time our comings and goings in the city. And they were so very friendly on top of that. We had drinks and appetizers on the sky lounge twice and drinks at the ground floor bar once. The food at the sky lounge was great and we had great service at both locations. Overall for the price of the hotel, I thought it was a great deal in New York!
