The Dylan Hotel for The Perfect Midtown Manhattan Hotel Location… Located in the city's vibrant core in midtown Manhattan, the best of New York City is just outside our front door. We're only a short walk from Grand Central Station, Times Square, Central Park, Rockefeller Center, Empire State, Fifth Avenue Shopping and the great restaurants of Manhattan. Only a few minutes away from New York's Jacob Javits Convention Center Surrounded by excitement. Cradled in comfort. That's what a stay at the Dylan Hotel in New York City is all about. Dylan's interiors, by Jeffrey Beers, mark a deliberate departure from both the too stark and overly hip designs prevalent in the high-end boutique market, all in the 107 rooms of the hotel. Beers has created a timeless look for the property that redefines opulence for a new age while preserving the landmark-quality architecture of the 1903 Beaux-Arts structure. The hotel features rich tones like amethyst, jade, emerald, opal and amber. Fabrics are soft and luxurious. The grandeur of the Dylan's public areas is evident from the moment one passes through the entryway.

Not great

I found some members of staff to be a little rude. The room was unclean... I have no idea what some of the substances were on some of the furniture and didn't want to know. The bathroom wasn't in great condition.

The former Chemists Club, just one block from Grand Central

Nice historical building just one block from Grand Central. Room must have been one of the laboratories or the library (the building used to be the Chemists Club), ceiling was triple-high, very nice. Room in good condition, staff helpful (when I asked them to lock away my 17-inch laptop since it wouldn't fit into the safe in the room they were at first a bit confused on how to do that but didn't give up until they found a solution; there was no ice maker on the floor but they brought ice up to the room within 5 minutes; etc. pp.), and all for a very decent price.

I really like this place

I liked the Dylan very much--nice staff, nice decor--my room was also very comfortable and nicely designed. This is a superb location, in my view--I have stayed further north in midtown and decided then that a little closer to Grand Central would be better. There are good affordable food options (in addition to many at GC), and I really liked being close to the wonderful library

If you have an iPhone, get the NY Subway app, it really keeps you oriented and you learn the subway fast. Buy an unlimited-use Metro card (mine was 7 days for $27.00)

Perfect location for a Christmas visit

The Dylan was a perfect place for my Christmas in New York. The staff was very friendly and easy to work with especially in dealing with the Blizzard of 2010! Everyone helped to make my holiday a special one. Just might be back next year!

"Very nice hotel"

I am a resident of New York City and this was my first visit to the Dylan Hotel. I was highly impressed with the staff and the room. The staff was very pleasant. I resided in a luxury room. The bed size was more than adequate and the room size was perfect. The bathroom was extremely clean and with updated decor.I only wish that the bathroom had a bathtub so I could take a hot soak in the tub, but I still enjoyed the hot shower. It was very quite throughout the night. I was able to visit Grand Central Station, which was right around the corner. I really enjoyed my stay at the Dylan Hotel and I will be returning. I highly recommend this hidden gem in New York City. Thank you!

Good Location

My stay at the Dylan Hotel in NYC was relatively comfortable. I was only in my hotel room for a couple of hours over one night but the accommodations were more than adequate. The room was somewhat small but it was clean and quiet. The hotel is also very conveniently located 2 blocks from Grand Central where you can get the subway or easily catch a cab. I did not have much interaction with the staff other than at check-in and check-out but they all seemed friendly and helpful.

Times Square is only a short walk to the west, or shopping along Madison/5th Avenues only a moderate walk to the north.
