This was my first stay after living in NYC for 20 years and moving west. The hotel's location is worth the price alone. The check-in was fast, they offer complimentary refillable waters and drink tokens for their happy hour. Nice touches.
The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The noise level from above/hallways was negligible. The cleaning staff was excellent.
Aside from maintaining a consistent water temperature in the shower -no big swings in temperature but still had to adjust frequently - a pretty nice, historic registry hotel.
Will definitely stay there again.

We generally try to keep housekeeping to every 2-3 days. After receiving housekeeping, we returned to find the same towels we put in the bathtub folded and returned to shelf for our use. We recognized the exact same subtle stains on the towels that prompted us to ask for housekeeping in the first place. So disgusting and we declined housekeeping for the rest of our stay.

The hotel is in a great location with easy access to transportation and all the attractions. It’s on a quiet, safe street and was great for a family. The only draw back is that the inside of our room was showing a little wear and could use a refresh. If we wouldn’t have received a great rate that would have disappointed me a bit.

The room was clean and decently sized for a room in Manhattan. Reception, portering and house keeping staff all very kind and approachable and ensure you have a lovely stay. Water bottles were topped up daily. The location is great with just a 3-4 min walk to Grand Central yet tucked away from all the noise of it all. 10-15 min walk to other attractions like Times Square and St Patrick’s Cathedral or 5th Avenue shopping. The welcome shot drink was a nice touch :)

Only suggestion- I wish there was a full length mirror in the room instead of bathroom only mirror. Missed the little tea and coffee sachets/ hot water in the room, however the hotel does compensate for this with complimentary tea and coffee in the mornings.

I would come back and stay at the Renwick or suggest it to friends and family.

We have stayed at quite a few hotels around Grand Central and this one was nice! Minus the destination fee. Seems extremely unnecessary.
The staff was pleasant and the gentleman that took off care of our car was great. The valet part was expensive but it was worth it.
As for the room, great size, bed was comfy and the bathroom was a great size.
The bathroom had everything needed but the shower hardware was a little confusing and the water took a while to heat up. The temperature control knob was slightly hard to adjust and getting the right temp was not fun.
The shampoo/conditioner/body wash were just ok. A bit too peppery smelly for me and a slightly too watery.
Unfortunately, the wooden floor in the main room needed sanding. I got a large sliver walking over to the desk.
Also, there is no closet or real wardrobe. There is a very large mirror with a hanging area hidden behind it and behind that was the ironing board and iron.
The TV was on top of a dresser but the top had a brassy grid around it which made watching TV difficult if sitting on the couch.
The furniture was a bit beat up and there were stains on the couch cushions.
The AC worked great and there was enough lighting thru out the room. Really liked the light in the shower area. Perfect for a late night trip to the potty lol.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will stay there again.

I arrived at this hotel at 11 pm after a long transatlantic flight. There are steps down to the lobby (no elevator) and I was struggling with my suitcases downstairs. No one helped.
The receptionist was chatting to guests on the sofa and completely ignored me. Finally, she came back to the desk and checked me in. She handed me a key but didn’t even tell me how to get to the room. There was also very loud music going on - turns out there is a live DJ.
The room was not nice - the carpet was rumpled, the window looked out at a brick wall and the bathroom was the smallest I’ve ever seen. It was a struggle to have even my toothbrush on the sink. The only place to hang clothes (with all of 3 hangers) wasn’t long enough to hang dresses.
Also, it was NOISY!
Personally, I will never go back to this hotel again. I’ve been in many, many hotels all over Manhattan and this was the worst one I evet stayed in.

The location is the main selling point here. It’s just a few minutes walk from Grand Central. Our room was also a decent size for 3, and we didn’t have problems with street noise. The details of this hotel could be improved though. For example there is no coffee in the room; the gym is very basic and small; the TV is not smart; the WiFi was weak. Management could certainly fix some of these things. Overall it’s an ok place.

The location was wonderful and the staff were very friendly. We arrived with no toilet paper and only two bath towels for 2 adults and 1 teen. Upon request, we received the items though it did take some time. The a/c was the main issue, the room felt damp and muggy even though the high temp in NY was only in the 80s. No matter who much we turned the a/c down, the room never felt cool. Other than that, it was a great place, nicely furnished with bare necessities for a quick weekend trip.

Our original flight got canceled so it was up in the air on when we would arrive (late night or next day). Fortunately, we were able to get to New York even earlier than originally scheduled which was well before check-in. Jasmine at the front desk was such a gem, she granted us early check-in with no extra cost. That type of customer service is very much appreciated.

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL!!! The first night that we checked into the Renwick, our $300+ room did not have air conditioning...yes, you hear me...NO AIR CONDITIONING. June 26 - 29, we planned a girls' birthday weekend for my friend, filled full of dinners, shopping, and fun, but it was ruined by the sweltering heat in our very expensive room. When we arrived in the room, we noticed a large fan. We asked the bellman why the fan was there, and he said that maybe a previous guest had ordered it and housekeeping did not remove it. It was around dinnertime when we checked in, so we quickly dressed, turned on what we thought was the AC, and left the room, thinking that it would be cold when we returned.

We returned to the room later that evening, and the room felt like an oven! We voiced our concerns with the night desk personnel, and they said that they were full for the evening and nothing could be done about it. Saturday morning, we spoke to the front desk who informed us that they would work on another room for us and said that the housekeeping staff must have mislabeled the room as ready when it really needed to be repaired. The front desk personnel had an exchange with their corporate office, and when we returned to the hotel,

Overall good experience at the Renwick. Wasn’t sure what to expect as we normally stay at name brand hotels. But the reviews were good and we wanted a bigger room for our family as everything else in NYC is much smaller. From that aspect, we were very satisfied.

Honestly everything was good except the check-in lady. She symbolizes New York perhaps and the rep they have for bad attitude. We had just arrived after a long travel and delays and when I came to the check-in desk, instead of a “welcome to Renwick, welcome to New York”, literally her first comment was “check-in is at 4pm.” I had to tell her that’s fine and that I had already paid for early-check in. Very bad turn off of the hotel right off the bat. It was 2:45pm anyway so why would you stick that in someone’s face instead of just checking if the room is ready. Even then, just welcome the guest. Renwick needs to clean that up.

Besides that, the room was nice. Service was good particularly the African American woman who cleaned our room.

Our living room TV didn’t work so that would’ve been nice if it did as all my kids had to stuff themselves into the bedroom to watch anything.

Again overall would recommend but I do wish the hotel is more welcoming to guests upon check-in.

Upon arrival the 2 front desk employees at check in chatted with eachother unworkable related and ignored us for a good 5 minutes. We requested and prepaid on arrival for late checkout. When we got to our room to gather our belongings after a long day of sightseeing we were locked out of our room because the front desk did not enter our late checkout request. Only one elevator was working and we had to use the stairs at one point bc the wait was so long. In addition, our toilet backed up-although they did send someone up to fix within 15-30 minutes. I also requested extra pillows and a blanket and they never came.
Overall for the price the room was very dark and small. There are so many options in NYC we will not be back to this property.

Hotel is perfectly located near grand central station and around several places to eat. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful sharing information about how to get a bus to EWR. The room was okay. It is a bit of an older hotel and could use some renovations. The bed was comfortable which is most important to me. The sink in the bathroom however was so tiny, when I washed my face all the water fell to the ground. The tub was very worn but not a huge issue. Lastly, there were a couple of things that could be a little cleaner which would have upgraded my score to a 5/5 but ultimately it was fine and I would consider staying here again!

The room, location, and stay in general were 10/10. The staff, however, wasn’t very helpful when we asked for help with a taxi service to the Airport very early in the morning. We asked for a taxi (which is less expensive than a black SUV) and confirmed the service the night before. When the car arrived, it was a black SUV, I asked again stating it was a regular taxi and they confirmed pricing with me which was the main difference to us. We did not have time to request another service and ended up using it but it was definitely not the initial pricing we received, plus there was a 10% charge for credit card payment and ended up being more expensive than the regular taxi service.

Upon entering our assigned room, we discovered that a QT Storm ozone machine (or similar air purification device) had been left operating in the room. Having never encountered such a machine before and not being aware of any potential health risks, I sat on the bed directly in front of it for approximately 5–10 minutes.
Shortly afterwards, I began experiencing significant irritation to my airways and eyes, accompanied by persistent coughing and heart palpitations. The symptoms were severe enough to disrupt the remainder of our evening and caused considerable distress. Given that ozone exposure can pose health risks, I am extremely concerned that guests could be placed in a room containing such equipment without any warning, signage, or confirmation that the room was safe for occupancy.
What was equally disappointing was the response from the member of staff when we reported the issue and requested a room change. Rather than treating the matter seriously, the staff member appeared unconcerned and stated, \"Hmm, I think the one next door is clean, let me know if it is or not.\" This response was unprofessional and gave the impression that room safety checks were not being carried out properly before guests were allocated rooms.
I find it unacceptable that:
We were assigned a room containing equipment that may have adversely affected our health.
No warning or explanation was provided regarding the machine.
The staff member handling the situation appeared indifferent to issue
