Was lucky enough to snag a Club room, (floors 37 & 38), at the HIlton in NYC. Yes, it was only a studio, (sleeps 2--king bed), but my sister in law and I were able to visit NYC in the midst of the holiday season. The room was smaller than some of the other accomodations I"ve stayed at in NYC, (Affinia Manhattan, Manhattan Club), but we had plenty of room for the two of us. The bed was very comfortable, and I had no problem sleeping. The bathrooms was huge, and although only a shower, (no bathtub in the studios), it was one of the most luxurious showers I have encountered in a hotel. You had the main, (sunflower), shower head, then two smaller shower heads that were lower. Also room to sit in the glass enclosed shower. The sink area was large, and plenty of shelves/counter space for toiletries and towels. The bath ammenities provided by the hotel were wonderful, and replenished everyday. Besides the king size bed, there was a small table and two chairs in the room, and lots of counter space/storage, (which we did not use, as we "lived out of our suitcases" for our short stay. Wifi access was free on the Club level.
One of the perks on being on the club level was the free continental breakfast, (juices, coffee, fresh fruit, danish, croissants, cereal, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, etc.), provided each morning. During the day, coffee, water, soda and cookies were available, and for two hours in the evening, hot & cold appetizers, beer, wine, coffee, drinks, were served. We made use of the breakfast/evening snacks and only ate one large meal during the day outside of the hotel. The staff on the club floors were so friendly---everyone greeted us daily, and asked if there was anything we needed.
To be centrally located Radio City, Rockefeller Center, Central Park, and easy access to public transportation, and have such fabulous accomodations/ammenties, made for a perfect stay. We never enountered waits for the elevators, and were not approached/hassled to take a timeshare tour. I have everything positive to say about the Hilton Club! Hope to return for another wonderful stay!
