Location. Location. Location. This hotel is all about location. And good service too.
The rooms. I have booked a King Suite, got a terrible AC internal facing on floor 3.
Replaced to an even worse AC outlet inside bath(!) a disaster waiting to happen room on floor 5.
Then, a day after a small room on floor 16. No suite, and didn't get a refund of the difference, though asked for it and was told that would be refunded!

The location, the building and entrance, general decoration is nice. My room was very nice minus the fact that they attributed me a room where the curtains were broken and would not open. The front desk staff offered 2 other options but one was tiny with horrible view and window and second option was a suite that I would have to pay extra $150/night if chosen.
I didn’t like that a room with curtains that don’t open were an option and the fact that there is absolutely no service for breakfast only a pot of coffee or tea with pots of freezing cold milks.

I enjoyed this hotel for its exceptional location and outstanding service. The staff is genuinely lovely and helpful. The housekeeping team does a fantastic job cleaning and was always ready to provide extra towels and pillows right away. The front desk was also very kind to grant me a complimentary late check-out. The best feature is the unbeatable location in midtown, just a 2 to 3 minute walk from Grand Central Station, putting all the major attractions and great restaurants within easy reach. The beds are very comfortable, offering excellent value for the area.
Several practical issues made the stay less comfortable than expected. The reception is inconveniently located down a flight of stairs from the entrance, which is difficult with heavy luggage. There are no in-room coffee or tea facilities not even a kettle. The only option is a basic self-service station in the bar each morning, an offering so limited I ended up buying my own kettle.

The rooms were decently sized for NYC. Everything was up-to-date from the lobby, to the room, to the bathrooms. Always appreciate when a hotel room has a mini fridge -- so that was great to have.
Checking in was extremely frustrating. I had booked the room 2.5 months prior through Booking.com. I had received multiple confirmation emails leading up to the trip. Upon checking in, the person at the front desk couldn't find my reservation. They had called someone who found it, and it took TWENTY FIVE MINUTES of sitting in the lobby twiddling my thumbs waiting for the person on the phone to set up the room appropriately in the system. It left me only 10 minutes to get ready for a dinner reservation we had, which was also extremely frustrating.

The location. Walking distance to grand central. Lots of restaurants around the area. Bed is comfortable. Nice bathroom. Seating/living area is huge.
One of the TV didnt work (living room) but its fine, not a big deal. Bathroom is a tight squeeze but not a big deal either. Love that its updated tho.

The location is excellent. Rooms are spacious and quiet. Peter at the front desk is helpful and welcoming.
Rooms are dated, with cracks and scuffs. We had graffiti on the wall in our room. Cleaning staff are very rude with a terrible attitude. They would arrive with a terrible attitude as if we are inconveniencing them. The cleaners would always be on their phone watching videos, not really cleaning anything just doing the bare minimum.
Most of the front of house has terrible people skills, I had to ask the employee to stop looking at his computer and pay attention to me as I was explaining our clogged shower. He also had a terrible attitude.
The water in the shower fluctuates from boiling hot to cold, and the heater didn’t work in our room so we were moved around. Not the best experience.

This is an adorable little hotel with plenty of style, charm, and character, tucked away around the corner from Grand Central. The staff is lovely and helpful. The suite was large by NYC standards. The comfortable bed and the Lavazza espresso machine were much appreciated. The bar downstairs is very cool.

I had a suite which was great. The bedroom had little room for anything beyond the bed so happy to have the extra space.
The shower felt unsafe and potentially slippery to get out. Also electrical outlet where water can hit it feels wildly dangerous. The only other outlet in there was behind the mirror so not helpful either. On the first morning of a multi night stay housekeeping showed up before 9. I was still in the room. They never came back. Leaving they said they could get me a taxi to the airport. I said I wasn’t quite ready to go but would let them know if needed. I checked and Lyft was cheaper. They had called a taxi anyway and when I clarified it wasn’t needed and a car was coming they told me how tolls and taxes are included in the taxi. I was like, cool, good for them. They then took my bag outside to give to the taxi driver. I took it from the driver as he was putting it in his car. He went into the hotel mad and I left.

The hotel's location is excellent — it's hard to imagine a better one for exploring New York
The heating in the room works whenever it feels like it, and the windows are not particularly well sealed. The restaurant does not offer hot drinks outside of set hours — for example, getting a hot tea in the evening is not possible.

Location was ideal near Grand Central. Close to metro. Beautiful lobby, record bar great, nice attentive staff. hotel is beautiful. It's an historic property and lovely. Daily bottled water was nice. The only unpleasant thing was getting hustled by the bellman to take his friends UBER back to the airport. We kinda felt forced to take it and it was more expensive than if we had booked it ourselves. It's not horrible but it leaves a bad taste after a really nice stay.
Price booked was high in comparison with other local hotels. Pushy bellman.

Location and very helpful room service
Upon arrival, we were told there was an issue with our payment, even though it had already gone through on our end. Instead of resolving it themselves, the staff insisted that we contact Booking, which was frustrating—especially after a long journey. They were not particularly accommodating or helpful during check-in. In the end, it turned out everything was fine on our side, and the issue was something they needed to handle themselves, not us as customers.

A great choice when you aim for excellent location in mid Manhattan.
The rooms are not in the best condition. During my stay, I was placed in two different rooms; the first was in very poor shape and felt like a backup room used only when all other rooms are occupied.

Pretty good location, definitely boutique and that was perfect. Felt like a real "find" as opposed on the tourist trail despite the Manhattan location a stone's throw from Grand Central. Staff were super chill too. I decided to leave a day early and they were so concerned for me — genuinely too, it was sweet, although everything was good.
I'll be back.

Very close to Grand Central, so convenient for getting around, including to JFK on the LIRR. Building had character and rooms have interesting art work and modern furnishings. Easy to leave luggage at reception on day of check-in and check-out.
We had a one-bedroom suite. The bathroom is an ensuite to the bedroom so for those sleeping on the sofabed it was difficult if they needed to use the bathroom in the night. Otherwise we liked the room,

We really loved our stay! The room was spacious and felt very comfortable, especially the bed—it was incredibly cozy and made a big difference after long days in the city. The location was also fantastic, very convenient and in a great area. The hotel itself has such a cute, boutique feel, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
One downside was the lack of a bellhop to assist with luggage, which felt a bit unusual and would have been helpful, especially when arriving with bags. Additionally, the room had very limited storage space—there wasn’t much of a closet or area to unpack clothes. While it didn’t affect us too much since we didn’t fully unpack, it could be inconvenient for guests staying longer or those who prefer more storage.
