Went with my wife and daughter for my wifes birthday. Accompanied by our little cocker spaniel, who was welcomed with open arms. They have one floor for folks with pooches, and the staff is great. they have doggie beds and bowls. Only problem is that New York has such little grass, we had to walk 2 blocks every time she... more

I've stayed in many hotels in New York and this hotel was by far the worst. I'm in my room right now. It's 1:59 AM and I'm listening to a humming noise that's so annoying it's hard to fathom how this hotel can pride itself on sleep. I understand that I'm in a big city and that implies noise... but... more

Another couple, my spouse and I traveled to NYC for a 4 night trip this past Easter weekend. Upon arrival at the Benjamin, we were promptly and pleasantly greeted by the staff. The desk clerk provided us with an upgrade without me requesting one. Our room was very clean and we had fun with the choice (12) of pillows available!... more

We had little to do with the staff of the hotel as we had absolutely no cause for complaint. On the contrary, from the personal touches in our room from turn down to finding smoothing classical music on the "Bose" when we returned from a tiring day on our feet everything went smoothly. When we twice needed directions and the... more

Our trip started on entirely the wrong footing because BA no longer fly direct to New York from Manchester and we had to transfer from a shuttle flight at Heathrow in the infamous Terminal 5 (believe everything you’ve read about that place). When we arrived at JFK, sure enough our luggage hadn’t accompanied us but we were told that it... more

We stayed at The Benjamin for 6 nights in early August 2009. The Benjamin is a lovely hotel. The staff was for the most part pleasant and helpful. The public areas of the hotel are nice. The Benjamin ranks very high in terms of room quality, bed comfort, amenities, and most aspects of service. We booked our room on Priceline... more

Staff attentive & friendly in all aspects of service. The room was good size for NYC & the place was in great shape... more
