I like the apples but thebathroom is a little bit small
Horrible service. Was delayed in traveling and they never responded to me. Not even the courtesy of a response
This place is a gem!! No doubt I will come back. Four cool bars and restaraunts that are great. The staff is great. The hotel is very swanky and accommodating. The whole vine is worth every penny.
Great hotel and amenities especially the roof terrace. Location is amazing.
great hotel, design, good value and superb restaurants
Freehand is a fun place to hang out while staying at the hotel
Rooftop bar with view of Empire State Building. Food at Simon and the Whale hotel restaurant was amazing. Great spot, won’t ever look for a different hotel while in NYC again.
Freehand is terrific! A very classy, hip, clean, well-run hotel, which had great energy. I'd been taking care of my daughter for 10 days, post-surgery, and spent one night in the city. It turned out to be perfect in every way: - great room - fun bar and perfect martini - fabulous dinner at Simon & Whale - excellent breakfast My kind of hotel - in every way....
Brand new renovation, really fun vibe, everything you need and nothing you don’t, super friendly staff, excellent restaurant.
We recently stayed 2 nights at the Freehand and I can honestly say that the level of service was far above any hotels I have visited in the past couple of years. Check-in was a breeze and all of the lobby staff were so wonderful during our stay (helping with bags, offering restaurant recommendations, and chatting with us each day as we arrived and departed). The room was on the small side, but had everything we needed including a nice view. The bed was SO comfy! Saving the best for last...the staff at The Studio bar! James (bartender) was amazing and not only made us a number of delicious cocktails, but was so accommodating and friendly (he greeted us by name when he saw us later in our trip!). The entire team was great and made our stay that much more memorable. We will be back!!
The hotel was close to my destination. The staff was very friendly and welcoming even though I arrived late. Since it was my first time traveling to NYC, the staff really helped me figure out the the directions. The room was very ‘COZY’ and clean. Just perfect:) . Highly recommend to students who go to NYU for interviews.
For the most part the staff was lovely. However the Hostesses on the rooftop bar with very unwelcoming and not friendly at all. Room was also very small but still comfortable. The apples were a very nice touch and water.
