The room was ok. The sheets and towels were clean. The room didn’t have trash can in it. There also wasn’t a closet so we had to keep our belongings in the suitcase. The only mirror in the room was in the bathroom so it made getting ready a little difficult. I couldn’t see my full body and had to defog the mirror to do my makeup.

I had a truly excellent experience at the Little Charlie Hotel. The staff were very efficient, and the hotel was very clean, with superior air quality. I often have allergies when I stay in hotels because of dust and or mold, but in this case, the air was extremely clean. The room was also very comfortable and conveniently laid out. The only negative point was the noise, since I was on the 2nd floor, but even that was fine, since the location was perfect for accessing the UN and other landmarks.

I only had a one night stay, but I would definitely stay again. Small but mighty room equipped with shampoo/conditioner/body wash combo. It had electronic shades and hooks for your bags and jackets etc. Many options to eat outside the hotel and a grocery store next door. The elevator can be a little slow but taking the stairs was not a problem.
The only issue I had which probably isn’t an issue everyday, and I had to check out pretty early, was that the free breakfast was not available until after 7:30am and around that time they were still setting up so I didn’t get my free breakfast.
Otherwise I would still recommend staying and it was a nice short stay and would stay again.

I 💚 Little Charlie! I asked for a room with a window facing the street.Reservations told me that the single rooms didn't face the street. I didn't want to spend extra for a bigger bed. When I checked in, I was pleasantly surprised to have a king bed with a beautiful view of 2nd Avenue! They upgraded me!! What excellent customer service!! I was so comfortable in the big spa bed. It rained at night, and I was snug and comfy watching the rain fall. It was my first time in NYC. Little Charlie set a great example for the rest of the city. We were centrally located and did a bunch of site seeing. Everyone was kind and helpful showing us around. It was warm outside, and it was so nice to have a spa shower experience at the Little Charlie! Also, the AC worked really well.All of the shampoos and lotions are luxurious. They had a great hair dryer and also a steamer for our clothes. The breakfast is wonderful! Fresh coffee, tea and pastries. You can take breakfast to the roof top for a fantastic view. I'll be back again next time. 10/10

Super cute, clean, comfortable hotel with extremely nice staff in a great part of town away from the hub bub. Yes, our room was tiny, but it was well thought-out with great amenities and that's a trade-off in NYC for a reasonably priced hotel. The breakfast was a plus, for sure. We had a great stay and a fabulous time in the City. Thanks Little Charlie!

Cozy little hotel in Manhattan. Traveled with my husband to NYC and stayed in Little Charlie. This hotel gives you the impression that you’re staying in a cute European hotel. The room was cozy, very well kept, clean and with all the amenities. They served daily breakfast with delicious pastries and coffee.

We booked this hotel as we were celebrating our 45th Wedding Anniversary in The City! I fell in love with this unique different hotel! Loved how comfortable the beds were and how it was alongside the window so we could see the City Streets. The rooftop was decorated beautifully with plenty of lounging areas. Love the new concept of efficiency hotel, unique ways in saving space. Just wish the had coffee pots in the room. Otherwise , highly recommend!

A very good budget option that's close to all public transit and some good food options. I really appreciated how comfortable the beds were, and while the rooms are small, there is a lot of storage space. However, there were some noticeable scuffs on the furniture/the water pressure didn't work very well in the bathroom. Regardless, this is only a small piece of feedback, and ultimately I would stay here again for the price.

We stayed for 3 days, 2 nights. We put our sign out to have the room cleaned while we were gone for the day, but it was not cleaned. Our shower water was hot only 50% of the time and we never got new towels.

The location was great for our trip. We appreciated having breakfast pastries in the morning along with water. It was helpful having a noise machine and steamer in our room for the stay.

Pretty awful. I like the neighborhood - there’s a great organic supermarket next door - and the price was right given its graduation season. I arrived around 11 but my room wasn’t ready - fine - so I checked my bag. The woman at the desk didn’t tell me the desk closed at night.
I got back at 9:30 - busy day - and couldn’t get in the building. A returning guest let me in. I had a difficult time accessing the self-check-in kiosk. The thing wanted a confirmation number that wasn’t my hotels.com reservation number. After half an hour, I figured it out, thanks to a guest who saw I was struggling and told me he had the same problems the first time he stayed there. In the meantime, I let in two guests whose keys didn’t activate the front door.

The room was small, which is fine, but the walls aren’t really soundproofed so I heard the tv from the room next door. There’s next to no water pressure in the shower. There’s no WiFi password to be found in the room.

I was there for less than 12 hours. Bed was ok. Lots of street noise from 2nd Avenue.

I’d suggest checking people in early, giving them a key activated for 3 PM. That doesn’t solve the problem of the keys not working to get in the front door.

Luckily, my bag, stored, was behind a curtain by the desk so I was able to get it.

Breakfast was basic, no orange juice, no butter or jam for the croissants. The place could be nicer with competent management. This is the most negative hotels.com review for me.

Room was compact but had everything we needed. Amenities are also sparse but sufficient…no gym but free membership at Crunch; continental breakfast at 7:30 was fine. Great that they allowed us to store luggage.

The level of noise in my room was ubearable you basically hear all what happens on 2nd avenue. The hotel needs some serious sound proofing. I must say earplugs and a white noise machine were provided. The location is great.

Place was super clean which is what matters to me most. I will say, I was disappointed in the breakfast. The breakfast were only pastries that sat out until they were gone. Silly thing, but would have been nice to have something that actually could sustain you for a few hours. Other than that, property was nice. The rooms are way smaller than shown in pictures. My room had a window that just faced another room, so after a few days, I felt claustrophobic in a tiny, windowless room. Great stay for maybe a day or two.

Quaint & charming little hotel; it’s truly in the name “little Charlie”
Very good use of space!
l had a pleasant stay, staff were helpful, breakfast was good.
Rooms are rather noisy though, but there is provision for ear plugs…

Location was also great, writhing a short walking distance to the Ford Foundation & grand central station, plenty of eateries too including a local shake shack!

I love this place! It’s being in the center of midtown east without hearing the outside noise. It’s definitely an amazing retreat while in Manhattan to rest and recuperate. If there were 10 stars I’d give 10 stars for affordability, friendly staff, great continental breakfast and very clean and well maintained hotel.

Rooms very small. By coincidence, we had just taken an overnight train. Our bedroom on the train may have been slightly larger than our bedroom at this hotel.

Good little boutique hotel in a good location near Grand Central Station. My room was small as advertised but very clean with good bathroom amenities. The room was very loud (facing the street) and the blackout shade let a lot of light in on the sides. You also hear everything from the hallways and rooms next to you. They do provide earplugs. Breakfast was simple and good - coffee, tea, some apples and pastries. Overall good choice for a short stay if you know the situation.

The staff was helpful and the room was clean. Great little space close to what we needed. The front desk even held our bags after we checked out so we could explore the city. One minus was the pillows; they were too firm. We would definitely stay again.
