Hotels near 57th Street - Midtown, New York

I checked in during the storm period and found the night is so cold. I need to ware clothes for asleep. Facilities are all good. It would be nice in summer rather than cold seasons.

I was a bit daunted by reviews when booking but was pleasantly surprised. Firstly, you get what you pay for (and a bit more). It’s a hostel with private rooms, not a hotel. Once you realize that, you manage your expectations. It is in a prime location next to Central Park and a short walk to Times Square. It is near a metro station and there are lots of stores and restaurants nearby. The room was adequate (I booked a single room). It was clean and comfortable. Inside the room was a small tv, a small refrigerator, a desk a twin bed and a small closet area. I wasn’t too concerned about the room because I didn’t intend to spend much time in there but it was comfortable enough for my stay. The bathrooms are shared but are privately used so you don’t actually share it with anyone while using. It was always clean and regularly checked (but of course as they are shared some people clear up after themselves better than others). There were several so I never needed to wait more than a few mins. The shower pressure was fine and the water temperature was perfect for me. Even though you pay for gym and facility use when you stay, I never used them so can’t comment on them. The checkin and check out processes were easy. The staff were all friend and helpful. The building felt safe and I never felt worried about anything. I don’t really have any negatives to comment on. There was a little noise at time from other residents but that’s beyond the control of the staff etc.

Location was perfect as it was located in the middle of Manhattan. Convenient to go anywhere really. Room was clean but not spotless. It is the US, not Asia 😂. All in all, pretty satisfied but the price was high during my stay.

Managed to arrive early and allowed early check-in at 1pm plus instead of 4pm. The caucasian woman stationed at the check-in counter was not the most friendly person. I passed her my credit card and was waiting for her to instruct me to sign for receipt. After a long pause, i realized i have to do something with the machine, and asked her where do i click for the machine. She did not respond kindly. I understand not every American has travelled widely and tends to provide poorer quality services as compared internationally. Hereby pointing this out, as a matter of fact, the hotel need to understand not every country use the same brand of credit card machine/POS as the Americans. The hotel staff should not expect foreign guests to know how the machine or hotel works. Also, there is no instruction on the machine ‘Please sign here’. The staff should at least provide a verbal instruction for signature on the machine. If the staff cannot be bothered with providing verbal instructions, please paste a visual aid on the machine at the minimum. Thankfully, the asian guy during check out was much friendlier and tried to start a conversation, but i was having a cold so i tried to minimise interaction. The interiors were old fashioned like in 90s. Fortunately, the room was clean and lit with multiple lamps around the room. As with most reviews, I was charged twice on my credit card on first day and last day each. Asking for a refund through my card service now as unauthorised charge was made on the last day and it wasn’t even on the receipt/expense report. I would gladly just pay for everything on my Day one, instead of going through such trouble. No receipt for deposit or cancellation, unlike other hotels i have been to. Service and amenities are average. No slippers available in the room. Locker for valuables provided. Own coffee machine provided in-room, but don’t set high expectations as it’s not Nespresso. There is no in-room dining menu for reference, even if i want to get. 30$USD destination fee per night is compulsory but exchangeable for 2hr bike rental in central park for two pax or food in the hotel. It feels like the hotel wants to charge you extra but don’t want to provide the service paid. I didn’t bother to purchase food from hotel as the reviews were average. Recommend to visit Los Tacos No. 1 & Broad Nosh Bagels a few blocks away for breakfast and lunch. The best point and only positive point is the hotel location. Just behind MoMA and near proximity landmarks such as Rockefeller Centre, and two streets away from 5th Avenue and Central Park. Only stayed here for convenience as a friend was also staying in the same hotel for business needs.

I stayed here for two nights when I was in New York and loved the cute pods. If you like staying in aesthetic hotels, don’t plan on being in the hotel for very long, and don’t want to break the bank, stay here. You can’t eat or take calls in the pods though - good to be aware! What I loved: -Grown alchemist toiletries - they feel so luxe. Also the robe is so nice! -Location is amazing - walking distance to west village and broadway, easy bus / subway access to anywhere else -White noise machine - this blocks out a lot of sound and is great -Bathrooms were pretty clean - I recommend going downstairs -If you can’t carry your bag upstairs, they’ll send someone to do it which was much appreciated! What could be better: -Downstairs has a hot water machine but you need your own teabags or coffee. I bought some from a supermarket but it would be amazing if there was as an option to buy them at the hotel.

Hotel was fine for what we needed but there's probably better options to be honest ... Negative - We had multiple problems including the room we booked not being available the first night somehow ?? ... not sure how that makes sense when we had already booked it ... but anyway we just needed a place to sleep and leave our things and use as a base whilst we explored NYC so it didn't bother us too much. We had multiple issues with the air conditioning not working and stayed in 3 rooms during our 5 day stay ... The maintenence guy ”Zenon” was AMAZING and was just so genuine , helpful and friendly and he is a credit to that hotel. He was the highlight of the hotel and I hope he gets some recognition. Positives - The room(s) were very clean and felt very safe and a good size. Location was great too. For the mid-range NYC price we got what we paid for overall I suppose. The hotel could be better but also it was fine for what we needed and the price we paid.

Excellent hotel and excellent service attitude from all hotel staff, special thanks to Katy at the reception and to Arian at the roof-top restaurant for their great attitude and professionalism.

The room is quite big and comfortable. Since it is a vintage hotel, the equipment is naturally a bit old. The hygiene is very good.

Very nice and clean room. Convenient to go to the MOMA.
