Unbeatable location for the price

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Bently Hotel for his Birthday/Valentine's Day. The location was great. Located near great food, shopping, and attractions. The room was very clean and the service was great. Hotel Staff was friendly and accommodating. Room were small and did not have hot water. We also could heard people staying in the other rooms surrounding ours.

Great deal!

I would definitely stay at the Bentley Hotel again. The hotel is fashionable and the staff is attentive. Plus, the price is very reasonable for Manhattan. The window stretched from wall-to-wall with a great view of the Queensboro Bridge. The only complaint I have is that there was a small gap between the window and the wall separating the next room, which allowed TV noise to come through. There's a nice breakfast diner just two blocks away and easy access to the subway. Great deal!

Clean, modern, comfortable.

Pros: room very clean with high quality sheets and coverlets. Flat screen tv. Quiet location. 21st floor (bar/restaurant) with fabulous nighttime views of city. Cons: no real services nearby. Trek to subway, restaurants.

Tip: Noguchi Studio/Museum (Queens) and The Cloisters (The Metropolitan Museum's satellite located at 1000 Fifth Avenue at 82nd Street New York, New York 10028-0198; tel. 212-535-7710 is dedicated to medieval European art) both worth the effort. Another little-known and interesting museum within the city is the Rubins Museum, dedicated to art of the Himalayas, located at 150 West 17th Street, New York, NY 10011; tel. 212.620.5000.

Great location, price and food

I stayed at the hotel because it was a great value close to Sloan Kettering where a friend was having an operation. It was only a 5 block walk. The room was clean, the people were fantastic and I had one of the best Veal Marsala dinners ever. If I had one complaint, it was the first night where my room was a little warm (I like to sleep in a room at 65 degrees). Turing the temperature down all the way did not seem to have any impact. Otherwise a great experience.

Great location

We are two former New Yorkers on a quick trip to visit friends and family. This location was great for us. The room was great and the staff professional and pleasant. Only two minor quibbles: 1) coffee is available 11am to 11pm, but morning coffee would be more appreciated. 2) it would be helpful to have computers available to guests to check e-mail, print return boarding passes, etc. We don't travel with laptops, since most hotels provide this service.

For those who know Manhattan (or are willing to be adventurous), The Bentley is an easy walk to major subway and bus lines, saving time and money on taxis.

OK for the money

Although we were on the second floor opposite the elevators, it was very quiet & we were there on a Saturday night.

Several casual restaurants to choose from just a block away - a good diner & a hamburger place.I put a 1 for dining options because we didn't use any of the dining at the hotel & there is no option for that. How do you rate something you didn't use?

Good for Price

The room was small, but not crazy small. Comfortable and chic. I ended up with two full size beds instead of the queen size I reserved, but no big deal. I think they're "european style" beds, because my feets definitely hung off the end, and i' only 5'10'', but it was still comfy. The staff was friendly enough. The elevators were slow. I don't know why elevator speed is a concern for people on [...], but in case it is for you, they're definitely slow. I liked the dimly lit hallways -- it felt relaxing and modern. The air conditioners were definitely having a hard time keeping up -- and it was only about 75 degrees outside. I'd be hesitant to stay there in the height of summer.
