My wife and I visited NY 16-21 Dec 2011. Hotel Mela was an ideal base, only 100m from Times Square. The room was cosy but perfect for the 2 of us. It was clean and just right for the 4 star billing. It didn't have a kettle but had a coffee machine. Bathroom was excellent, maids prepared the room to... More

I am currently staying at Hotel Mela in New York. What a hotel right in the middle of everything! Great checkin by Joel and the concierge team were outstanding. The hotel offers turndowns at night which is a nice touch and has the most mouth watering breakfast menu you have ever seen! Great value for money too so definately check... More

We stayed in the Hotel Mela 3 to 8 Feb and had a great visit. The staff were friendly, we spoke to a number of concierges over our stay and they were all helpful and gave useful information; on their suggestions we visited a few places and they were perfect recommendations. Notably the Roberts restaurant on top of the Museum... More

I wouldn't stay again close to Time Square, but it's a great location for a first visit to NY. The hotel is nice and clean, rooms are not huge but you are comfortable, and in a city like NY you barely spend time in the hotel. When taking a shower the bathroom would be instantly flooded. This is something they... More

Yes I have stayed at the Plaza, Four Seasons, Pierre, St. Regis, Hotel W, Regent, Waldorf Astoria and others in New York over 25 years, but I have never stayed at a more over rated (four star) dump than Hotel Mela where the king bed had barely three feet of perimeter of space around it with no room size disclosure...

Mela hotel is not a place you will remember and tell your kids all about. - GREAT location and for that reason alone should be considered - GOOD service: you can tell some of them care more than a regular corporate hotel would - OK rooms: make sure you ask for a high floor to start with. We had three... More

We stayed at this little hotel during our NYE trip to the Big Apple. We were very pleased. The hotel is very nice, clean, and not too big. It is 1 block off Times Square. I felt I got good value for what I spent. I did have a problem. But the hotel addressed and and made me very happy.... More

I just spent three nights at Hotel Mela and I was very pleased. The front desk staff was very helpful after a long red-eye flight from the west coast and the location was excellent for tourism. I'm glad we upgraded from the standard to the deluxe room. Some people complained about the room size but our room was great; it... More

Stayed here for 2 nights. Good location, near Time Square but not right in the middle of the craziness. Walking distance to theater district, restaurants, and shopping. Modern, upgraded quaint boutique hotel. Friendly staff, clean rooms with all the amenities. Tiny elevators, but that's New York! Cordial staff, if you're looking for a place to crash while you take in... More
