“The location is superb, near Grand Central, and the recent renovation seems to have maintained its historic charm while updating the rooms; I appreciate hotels that manage to pull that off. Despite being in a bustling area of Midtown, the rooms are reportedly quiet, and the marketplace and tavern downstairs provides varied American and international cuisine, making it quite convenient.”

A Clean Stay Near Grand Central

friendly staffclean hotelthin mattressmisquoted price
The hotel had a great location, close to Grand Central station. The staff was friendly , and things were kept very clean. It did take a while to get extra towels.
The sleeper sofa mattress was thin and uncomfortable. I also had some issues with valet parking, as the price was misquoted. It was about $20 per day more than I was told.

the location was convenient, a short walk to grand central terminal. the staff was very friendly and accommodated my early check-in request. the room was exactly as expected, and everything was in excellent order.
the bed was quite worn. also, the absence of on-site dining, save for muffins, felt limiting. furthermore, i noticed significant noise from adjacent rooms, which affected privacy.
