We booked On The Ave after lots of consideration for our Honeymoon, as we liked it's close proximity to Central Park. After a long flight and taxi ride, we were greeted by helpful staff who took our bags, and checked us in.
Our room was very spacious, massive bed (bigger than kingsize) with clean modern decor, aircon, and great facilities. Good view across Upper Westside and beyond, the hotel is right near a Metro Station on Broadway to take you wherever you want to go.
There are lots of places to eat nearby, including a fantastic deli on the other side of Broadway (next to Big Nicks Diner), or go behind the hotel, towards the Museum of Natural History and you'll find Crumbs Bakery and Shakeshack Burgers - if you go, you'll find out why they have queues miles long!!
Room was cleaned daily to within an inch of it's life, and staff were courteous and helpful.
We were at the front of the hotel overlooking a building site on the corner of Broadway, and for 2 of the 5 days we stayed, the JCB's started up at 7am....we did wonder why there were earplugs left at the side of the bed, but this is really the only criticism we have, and I'm sure the building works will cease soon.
There are also some lovely sun terraces (including a rooftop one), which we did have a look at but didn't have time to use. Free internet in the lobby and business center too.
This was a holiday of a lifetime made better by a hassle free stay in a great location. We will definitely return.
