Maine Traveler
Comfortable and Great Location
Our stay at the Omni Berkshire was excellent. This was our first trip to NYC, and the hotel was a major component in the success of our trip. We found the staff were friendly and helpful. For example, when we asked the concierge for a recommendation for a pizza restaurant, he gave us an good lead on a place nearby. The other services were also exceptional. We appreciated and enjoyed the benefits of membership in the free Select Guest loyalty program. With this program, coffee, tea, and newspaper were delivered each morning, which made us feel quite welcome touch. Additionally, we made use of the garment pressing service. Being our first time in the city, we appreciated the location, as the hotel was within walking distance to many of the Midtown attractions. We enjoyed the nearby shopping on 5th Avenue, and we walked to the Broadway show we saw during our stay. A subway station was a 5 minute walk away across Madison Ave. In short, we look forward to staying at the Omni Berkshire next time we are in New York City, and anticipate trying other Omni properties as well.

Great Location
Great location, about 2 blocks from the nearest subway and 1/2 mile to Rockafeller center. rooms where very clean and hotel was prompt in addressing a few minor issues. Stayed a week to see the site of New York and because of the location I was able to go any where by walking or taking the subway. Also, if you are watching your expenses there are several cafes near by for breakfast and mini marketes for sandwiches or a corner cart for a bagel or hot dog. It would have been nice to have a coffee maker to get the day going. Hotel was quiet for NY standards.

If you want an after dinner drink or just a place to get a drink or Fig & Olive across the street was reasonable in their wine prices and had good poors, though most of the wines are french or european. Also, 2 block north was a good bar to get a drink and catch a sporting event.

Was less then impressed
[...] Every morning we had to endure a 20 floor ride to then go outside to smoke. The suite was nowhere close to what was represented on their web page. The suite was sterile with no presence of comfort. The living room furniture was so uncomfortable we spent little to no time in it. Most of our time was spent in the bed room. When I decided to bathe I filled the tub but the water was rusty in color and sediment was present. We left after 2 nights because we became ill and returned home totally disappointed.

Wonderful stay!
On August 15 to celebrate my 75th birthday I took my two daughters-ages 50 and 48 to New York to help me celebrate this special time. After a 5 hour flight and a 11/2 hour limo ride from Newark airport (traffic was awful)it was wonderful to have chosen the Omni Berkshire for our stay. From the moment we arrived at the hotel (11pm) and were greeted and checked in by the staff to the day we left we found everyone in the hotel to be cheerful, helpful and accommodating in assisting us with any request we had. Our room at the hotel was great, very clean with comfortable beds and a wonderful bathroom with a great bath tub that we used and needed after all of our sightseeing and outings. The hotel location is excellent very central and within easy walking distance to many museums Rockerfeller plaza etc and some great resturants. I would very much reccommend this hotel to anyone visiting New York, and using Orbitz made it easy.

Terrific New York Experience
We thought the hotel was great! We requested an early check-in, but when we arrived there were no 2-double bed rooms available so we were upgraded for free to a suite room. The room was clean and the service and staff were great! The location is terrific-very close to great shopping. Walking distance to Times Square and Central Park.
