Unforgettable......

My experience was superb! I was in the hotel with the President of Russia and a few other Presidents from Africa. There were world leaders in the same hotel with me that this weekend. Room service was perfect. Everything was in walking distance.

Money-saving tip: Short walk from hotel

If you want great food without paying the hotel price...there are great shops around the corner from the hotel...hint hint hint! A plate of spaghetti cost me $56 at the hotel. Beware! But hey... it was delicious!

Fantastic Getaway

Perfect for a girls' weekend away. Elegant. Check in and check out was fast. The room was spotless. Staff was available but not intrusive. It was within walking distance of everything that we wanted to do. The breakfast buffet was delicious!

Birthday/Anniversary NYC getaway

On check in we were given a room on 12th floor...very small and noisy..sounded like the people in the next room were in our room. We were upgraded to a wonderful room on the top floor with a great view(no view from the previous room). On our last evening there a giant roach ran out from somewhere and under the tv credenza and when it came back out we stunned it and my wife took it down to the receptiondesk...they were horrified and very apologetic and bottom line comped us a very nice dinner in the Bull and Bear Restaurant. People were extremely friendly and we were very pleased with the xperience except for the 2 glitches.On Board tour of NYC was great (6hours) very informative and fun...

Deep in the heart of New York.

Enjoyed the Sunday Brunch in the Peacock Alley. Best I've ever seen, from oysters on the half shell, caviar, lobster, Beef Wellington, to every dessert you can imagine.
