This property has gone downhill. It’s dark, dirty and unchanged. The front desk personnel are disingenuous and not friendly. Our room key demagnetized every day, so had to schlep down to the lobby every time to swipe out. Hallway to our room at the very end was dark, could not see where to insert key in door without a flashlight. Bathroom in mezzanine area was gross. Lobby untouched for years- literally if you look around carefully, it’s all dusty, there’s a whole unused old bar area that looks like no one has cleaned in years. Quite sad as there are many personnel just standing around to open lobby doors, but that’s all they do I guess. Room old, shower head the only updated thing which was nice. Rates way too high for what one is sleeping in. It’s unfortunate. It was the most disappointing stay in a hotel I have had in many years.

Decent hotel near Lincoln Center.

The Empire Hotel was very good overall. Great location, as we were going to Lincoln Center. Very clean. Room and bathroom were uncomfortably small. Room was too warm and I couldn't turn off the heat. Staff was friendly.

THE HEAT IS ON

My stay, per usual was great. The only minor detail is....I could not find the control for climate and room was very hot. STILL I was OK. (I did not call front desk because of the late hour. I just wanted to sleep). In the big picture, this was ok. Front desk was amazing as always. EVERYTHING ELSE WAS GREAT!!

Looks nothing like in the photos. Dirty small room

I was pretty terrified when I walked into the room. It looked nothing like the pictures. It was dark. The curtail was torn and broken so I couldn’t pull it up to get light in. The furniture, carpet and walls were worn out. There were burn mark in the toilet. It was such a small room. The ambiance was reminiscent of a cheap motel. I only booked it for one night but I immediately knew I wasn’t going to be able to sleep there so I left.

Bedrooms need major makover

The bedrooms need a major makeover. Sink was almost falling off the wall in the bathroom. Everything looks tatty and old and it’s an old creaky building. Cant understand all the 5* reviews here after staying there. The manager was nice and I like this location in NYC. Wouldn’t stay here again though.
