The front desk staff was superb, especially Krystal. Unfortunately the room was not. The bathroom sink didn’t drain & the cold water faucet had a trickle so you had to brush with hot water or use the cold water from tub. The toilet would leak water each time you would flush. To make things even worse, there was construction that began at 9:00am. The city view made up for it all but if we had to stay more than a night we would’ve had to switch rooms.

Enjoyed the stay and location. It’s an older hotel that could use some upgrades. Walking distance to a lot and the staff was pleasant. Didn’t eat at anything onsite because we were always on the go. I would stay again

Worst hotel I have ever stayed in. The lobby gave me false expectations because the rest of the hotel was very run down and poorly maintained. I traveled with my 15 yr old daughter and friends for a birthday trip. The last day the staff slid a paper under my door claiming that we had violated their smoking policy, not only have I never smoked in my life (vaped or any other form) they didn’t have any way to prove or disprove. They just automatically charged me almost $600 for the violation. No one would come look and check review cameras or anything else. They simply said email corporate that their sensors are fool proof. I’m still caught up in an email battle with what is likely AI and will never get my money back. The staff were also rude and unhelpful after being unable to buy water from their vending machines (only located on 2 floors) we went to the restaurant and asked if they would please fill our water bottles. We were then reprimanded by the staff for that and told to use the gym…that no one ever told us about and we had to go on a hunt to find. When checking out we asked them to hold our bags, (which they charged for!)…and the attendant told my daughter she would have to go back to the back of the line with an adult, we spent over an hour just trying to get out of the hotel. I would give this hotel zero stars if I could. AND IT WAS EXPENSIVE for the awful experience we had.

Taking into account of the age of the hotel, the small areas that needed improvement are to be expected. There were some places where the wallpaper was peeling but that is all that I could find.

The staff was great. The location was really great. Just down the road, maybe a block and a half from the the Moynihan Train Hall. The subway was on the same block just around the corner. The Empire State Building, Madison Square Garden and Time Square were all with in walking distance.

If I get back to NYC again, I would definately stay there, again.

The staff was friendly even though they were extremely busy. The hotel is right across from penn station which made it convenient to take the subway and train station. The only downside I would say is having purchase their breakfast add on. They have a diner onsite and I assume we were getting at least eggs and toast or something similar with the add on. Our voucher included a coffee or juice and a pastry. That’s what they considered to be the continental breakfast and in my opinion was a rip off for the extra money we had to pay for “breakfast “ add on. Besides that the hotel was in prime location and we would stay here again.

The bed linens and towels were clean and replaced daily. The bathroom needed some attention as the exposed pipes were dirty, the toilet lid and sink damaged, the shower head sprayed badly and the caulk was dirty and missing in many places. There was only one hook to hang things and it was placed too high for my petite partner to reach(5’2”). There was no water in the vending machine.
Only 1 of our two rooms was ready at check in time. Otherwise the staff were pleasant, the location good and we had a wonderful trip.

The location is the best thing about this hotel. Everything else was just ok to poor. Hotel is really old, stains on walls are everywhere. Wallpaper peeling off. If you’re only looking for a place to stay overnight, this is ok. However for longer stays and if your looking for comfort, there are better places in the area you can find.

Very old hotel, and lots of mandatory extra charges when you check in. The rooms are small, the building has not been renovated in a long time. Location is decent but lots of closures of the roads when there’s events happening at Madison square garden. They make you pay a mandatory fee of $30 per day for use of the facilities and WiFi even if you don’t use them. They try and sell you tours when you arrive in the lobby. And if you want your luggage stored after you check out, it’s $10 per bag. All of the extra charges in an already old and dingy hotel left me with a really bad experience. This hotel is not worth it after all the extra charges. You’re better off going to a better known hotel chain to avoid the extra charges, they might be a little more expensive, but with the extra fees this hotel makes you pay, the costs come out to be the same except you’re in a much nicer hotel with no extra fees. There’s also no coffee machines in the room and no breakfast included. Total rip off.

Perfect location for our 3 days trip with two kids 7 and 9. We were offered to upgrade to a suite upon checkin for a small fee and we did it, it was way worth it to have a living room space separate from the bedroom especially for mid day breaks from the summer heat! We were able to checkin to our room at noon which was a pleasant surprise. Would stay again and recommend to other travelers. The property is old but felt iconic and fun for the girls first trip to the big apple! Loved having tick tock diner right on site as well!

The New Yorker was great. Ive grown weary of NYC hotels near major tourist areas after a nightmare stay at the Manhattan Hotel, so this one was a pleasure. Everything was very clean, staff was very pleasant, and the area was nice. I will say the only comment I have is how dated the hallway carpet and room decor is. It could all definitely use an update.

I like that it was so close to practically everything. I didn’t like that the staff stated my room would be bigger compared to the one I was going to get…felt like it was small already. I liked that I didn’t have to leave the hotel if I wanted to get something to eat late at night although I didn’t because I was out most of the time and stuffed my dace outside but I liked that option. I wishhh I would have gotten a high floor I was on the 7th but I did get a front view so I got to see a corner of Madison Square Garden. I liked the amount of white towels we were provided. We did NOT hear any noise from outside so it was peacefull. I liked that people had to show their key in the lobby because it was a crazyy Knicks finals night. Over all I would recommend and I would stay again.

The hotel service was amazing! We had a nightmare time getting to the city and had another room that was NOT what it was advertised to be and the staff at the New Yorker more than helped us with getting checked in early and calling to make sure we were ok. The only complaint at all was that our AC was struggling to do anything to keep up. Twice someone came up to look at it, but it didn’t change. The room was hot. Overall stay there! We will again.

The only good thing about this hotel is the price. Half of the rooms haven't been remodeled. My room was a $hithole. The front door knob and lock almost fell out of the door. The shower was misty to conserve water. Rooms are so small you can barely walk by the beds without hitting your legs.

But my biggest issue was when I booked the room I paid $34/day for a Continental breakfast. All it gets you was coffee, a mini glass of OJ, and a bagel. No fruit! No danish. The picture on the voucher shows fruit and danish! Very misleading and a total rip-off. That pissed me off. I told the manager and he gave me a credit for one day!

I'm not staying here again. I'd rather pay more for a better experience.

Apart from the great location, the hotel feels old and dated. We booked a room with two double beds, but the room was surprisingly small for the price we paid. There was barely enough space for our luggage.

Although the hotel claims to be a 4-star property, the amenities did not meet our expectations. There was no kettle in the room, and no complimentary coffee, tea, or bottled water. The shower facilities were poor, and there was no shower gel provided.

Overall, this was a disappointing experience and not the welcome we had hoped for during our family's first visit to New York City.

It's an historic hotel, so you're not going to get the convenience of a Holiday Inn, but the building is beautiful inside and out. We loved the art deco motif. The room was big enough for a couple's getaway. Views of the city are unparalleled. Subway access and Grand Central station are close by. The restaurants on site are wonderful. We never missed having an in-room coffee maker, because the coffee from the diner on the first floor was so good. Even the bed was very comfortable. If you can deal with a tiny bathroom and wildly inconsistent water temperature, then the charms far outweigh any inconvenience.

The staff were all wonderful!! I cannot stress this enough. Every interaction we had was handled with ease and professionalism.
The elevator banks were secured 24/7, which felt very safe.
The food/drinks at the Tick Tock Diner were amazing - we ordered from them multiple times and never had a bad experience. The staff there was also beyond amazing!
The room was on the smaller side, but completely worked for me and my friend. The bed and pillows were comfy enough to sleep well while we were there too.
There are not ice machines on each floor, which was a tad inconvenient, but the elevators are so fast - a quick trip up 3 floors and I was back in very short minutes each time.
The parking felt confusing from what we read online, but it is literally connected right behind the hotel. It doesn't belong to the hotel, but was completely secure and that staff was also very professional.
We loved the location. Being right next to Madison Square Garden was our intent, but the subway is also right there along with a CVS for quick needs and there were many options for food/drinks nearby.
With how amazing everything was at the hotel, I would 100% go back and stay for a NYC visit again... no matter the reason.

The hotel canceled my reservation from this app and didn’t tell me. They said there might have been an issue with my credit card even though I elected to pay at the property. Even if there was an issue, I should have been informed. Instead, I received multiple emails from this hotel to upgrade my room and stay. When I arrived with my two young children we were told our reservation was canceled, then we waited for them to figure this out while they told they had no rooms. About 45 minutes later they found us a room. I still don’t know what happened.

The room was surprisingly large for a nyc hotel and that was nice but the whole floor smelt a bit musty which was off putting. Staff were very nice but the line to check in was long.

And after spending $800+ dollars staying there it really ticked me off to be charged $20 to store our luggage. Not a great way to end your guest relationship. Never been charged to store luggage before.
