Very pleasant - but pricey extras
The (twin bedded)room and general decor was wonderful. Exquisite furnishings in the large room,and a wonderful large bathroom with lots of fluffy towels, large walk in shower room and big bath tub. But the "city view", looking north up 5th Ave, was uninspiring. The visit was marred by having no tea or coffee making facilities in the room (room service was extortionate for a cup of coffee. And, at Taj rates, there is no excuse for charging $13.50 per day for wi-fi. No excuse at all. Shame on you for such penny-pinching policies. The staff were courteous, pleasant and helpful and the food at the "Caprice" restaurant was very good and, during restaurant week, the prixe fixe was good value. An enjoyable hotel, however I have stayed at the Elysee and it has similar style at lower rates with breakfast and free wi-fi. Not such a prime location so you takes your choice...

Hotel great but Front Desk has problems
Hotel was very nice but Front Desk staff missed the mark. I expected much more from this class of hotel. Examples: Friend called to have champagne and fruit delivered to our room. He was told that the hotel had already sent up wine and fruit so would be overkill. All that was actually delivered was 3 pieces of fruit with a note from my fried. He was VERY embarrased. On checkin, they took credit card for incidentals but neglected to process so I ended up getting a letter under my door indicating a payment problem. VERY upsetting. Due to this process issue, front desk wanted to send up bottle of our favourite wine, but instead of Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay was delivered which we do not care for. Lastly, they graciously agreed to late chekout but neglected to mention that they could not update their computer system, so we returned from our activity hot and sweaty and couldn't get into our room --- and minutes earlier I had been at the front desk delivering a thank you gift to the staff. We still had a good time but Front Desk staff is just not on the ball the way they should be at this level of hotel.

60 AND LOVING IT
PERFECT FAMILY NEW YEAR'S
STAYING AT THE PIERRE WAS A DREAM COME TRUE. NEVER HAD BETTER SERVICE AT ANY HOTEL IN USA OR ANYWHERE IN EUROPE. SPENT 4 NIGHTS THERE WITH GROWN CHILDREN AND THEIR WIVES. CELEBRATED MY 60TH AND MY DAUGHTERS 31. WE WERE THERE OVER NEW YEAR'S AND WE ALL HAD WHITE CHOCOLATE TOWERS WITH HAPPY NEW YEAR ON IT WHEN WE GOT HOME THAT EVENING. [...]MADE IT POSSIBLE TO STAY AT A 5 STAR HOTEL FOR A 4 STAR PRICE.

New York with style
You can't do New York without style. The Pierre Hotel the epitomy of that. Its elegance and the top service beat everything else I know in the city, particularly the unsettling vastness of the Plaza, which is across the street. The rooms are gorgeous and the bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in. The Concierge staff is superb; they were very responsive to all our needs and organized dinners and other outings in the most effective way.

The Pierre was FANTASTIC - New Year 2011
From the moment I arrived to the time I left, service was 5 star. The entire staff exceeded my expectations. The room was spotless and spectacular. Will definatley stay again. Due to a late departing flight, they allowed me a late checkout of 4pm !! Wonderful. My New York favorite hotels are the Mandarin Oriental, Four Seasons, The London and the New York Palace... If you like any of those, you will LOVE the Pierre.

If you are trying to dine somewhere downtown, as we did, travel by subway. Do not attempt to get downtown from the Central Park area via taxi!

Pierre Hotel Amazing views
The location could not be better! Friendly staff except for the concierge desk. Always busy and not so helpful. Also the room service takes forever. 10-20 min. Later than the longest promised time. But excellent park view room! Shopping at high end boutiques and department stores etc. I think ours was a comedy of errors but did expect more for the money.also close to theaters.
