Hotel was built in 1911 a residence, but was turned into a hotel and continually updated to meet modern code. Room was exceptional, with a view of two streets in a corner room. Beds were firm, decor was perfect, and all staff were friendly, helpful, and efficient.

Great hotel, one of best in NYC
Great hotel, our toilet didn’t work since we walked in, might be just because it’s an old plumbing. Customer service was friendly but ineffective. We had someone come to plunge the toilet but didn’t fix the problem. Overall great stay.

Very clean basic room in a good location. Floor was not flat around bathroom door corner and created a trip hazard if not careful. Would stay again but will check room prior to acceptance.

This is a beautiful old hotel. Great location. Close to many restaurants, shops and attractions. I felt safe walking around at night. The room was bigger than I expected. The bathroom was a little small. Housekeeping was great at providing towels and keeping the room clean. The bellhops were very kind and helped with our luggage. They also stored our luggage when we arrived at the hotel. We were able to check in 1 hour before our scheduled check in time. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely stay there again.
