This hotel is a beautiful place to stay. It possesses a sense of calmness in the hustle and bustle of the city. It has a good location and excellent dining options. It is a wonderful place to return to, a home away from home.

Our second time in this fine hotel, the staff is great, the rooms are super nice and clean, and the location is great, we walked all over town. Also parking was easy, you can either valet, or self park right across the street. In the evening you can catch a great drink in the bar downstairs. Definitely coming back:)

Fantastic

Understaffed everywhere. Long check in lines. Queen bed actually a full sized bed. Room not what requested. Mattress soft and old. Request for 2 foam pillows turned into one feather pillow a hour later. Bartender rude to wife and looked me in the face and ignored me another time. I will not go on. DISAPPOINTING

Was a nice stay. Have no complaints. Was located close to all of our needs. Staff extremely nice.

Staff was wonderful!

Good value for NYC Great Lobby area Although is an old hotel, it’s all clean and neat Location worked great for me

Location

Property is very clean and beautiful. Service was outstanding. Loved every minute staying there!

The staff was excellent! I would stay there again…close to shopping and transportation

What I didn’t like was that I had to pay other hiding fees so the hotel became very expensive ! I wish those fees were reflected at the time of purchasing knowing ahead of time ! 😉

Pretty old hotel, nicely and recently renovated. It's a "historic" renovation that retains the period charm. Staff was helpful, but not overabundant. Amenities (restaurant, bar, etc) still closed. Room was very nice.

Bruce,We are truly sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations. It is concerning to hear that you experienced instances where our staff fell short of their usual impeccable service. Our team should be focused on promptly addressing the needs of our guests and making them feel at ease. We apologize for the inconvenience you faced during check-in and the inconsistencies in the room type and bedding.Furthermore, we understand how crucial a good night's sleep is and are sorry to hear that the mattress and pillow situation did not suit your preferences. Our team should have been more attentive to your requests, and we will ensure that this is communicated to the appropriate departments.Regarding the interaction with the bartender, we truly apologize for any rudeness or unprofessional behavior you encountered. This is certainly not representative of the experience we strive to provide, and we will address this feedback with the appropriate team members.Please rest assured that your comments are being taken seriously and will be used to improve our service in the future.
