We got this hotel through priceline and it worked out fine for us. The only issue was that it took a good 5-10mins to get to Grand Central and the subway. We arrived at 8am and couldn't get a room of course, they told us to check back at 12noon. By about 10am we we so exhausted from our red-eye... more

The hotel was in a quiet residential-like area that provided great views. The walk from the closest subway station was not far and was perfectly safe. There are a lot of good choices to eat and drink from nearby on 2nd or 3rd Avenue. The views from my room were magnificent. Pros: big rooms with plenty of room for your... more

We stayed in this hotel in June 2009. We arrived late at night at got the room from the highest floor. We were really tired but we couldn't sleep beacuse of the ventilator on the roof - awful noise!!! Next morning, very tired, I went to reception asking a new room. The staff was very polite and promised to arrange... more

Likes:less-traffic location, right off the highway to airports,and right opposite of the UN. The great morning and night view that can see sunrise in bed. heated pool with view on 27th floor. Very big corner room that you can open flatten-out large suitcases, decent beds and soft linens, but the bathroom was beyond old. Carpets needed to be changed though.... more

Size of the room-great, it was plenty large enough (as we were warned some hotel rooms in the city were super small). Views were good. Room-bed was awesome, one of the... more

stayed here on a 3 day whistle stop visit to new york. Very large rooms that were comfortable and had everything i needed. Found the staff a little rude and very abrupt but would not put me off returning. Very useful from its location and panoramic views of the city and found it surprisingly quiet considering its location. would definitely... more

Initially I thought the location would be less than ideal, but with a great Expedia discount I gave it a try. The east-side location (44th&1st) turned out to be better than expected, just a short 2 blocks to Grand Central station and multiple subways lines. And with most of my business being on the east side, it was nice to... more

I have stayed at the UN Plaza under various owners, and for various purposes, over the past twenty years. I recommended it to friends and family throughout the '90's and most recently in 2007. This was my first stay there in several years, and the recent traveler reviews had me a bit apprehensive. Those concerns were unwarranted based on our... more
