small but works

Good service, good staff. All around not a bad place whatsoever. However, the room is small, the bathroom is microscopic. Luckily my girlfriend is small so we were able to manage, but i'm about 6ft tall and it was a bit difficult in the shower and bathroom area.

very nice staff, great location close to Grand Central Station and 5th Ave. Local restaurants good. Concierge very accomodating. Cons the tub would not drain fast enough for a two person shower so we had to shower in shifts

Girl Friends Long Weekend Trip

The location was perfect, the room was comfortable and safe. The staff was very friendly, attentive and helpful. The four walk block to Grand Central was safe, even late at night. The only draw back was the temperature of the room, it got really warm in the night and couldn't get the thermostate to regulate the temperature. But the staff said they would look into it.

Excellent stay in the heart of NYC

We enjoyed our time at this hotel. Comfortable room and the hotel staff super friendly. The breakfast good though a little on the expensive side for what Europeans are used to paying in the EU.

Over average

+ Kimton is in the middle of Manhattan, so, you are very close to any symbol figure of the New York, such as Central Park, Times Square, etc... - We drove from Toronto to New York, and our check-in time was 3PM. We arrived to hotel around 2pm, as it is understandable, the room wasn't ready. They told us to come back after 3pm. We left the car and the bags at the hotel and had a lunch at a small restaurant close by. Returned back to the hotel around 3:30pm, but the room still wasn't ready. Image how tired we were after 9 hours of drive. Around 4pm the room was ready finally. - Another con is the shower control handle (don't know the real name) wasn't working properly. I had to stick a cartoon to make it work while I was taking shower. As we had only 2 days in New York city, didn't want to be bothered for fixing the thing...

Time-saving tip: Short walk from hotel

Instead of Grand Central, you are better off getting on the subway on 5th Ave. 922 extra blocks).
