Stayed at Beacon Oct 30 to Nov 3. Second time. Excellent rooms, good size, lovely comfortable beds. Good bathroom shower etc. Staff very pleasant and helpful, unlike some reviews stated.

I travel to NY at leats one time a year since 15 years and this was my first stay in this hotel. I found it great. Very, very nice room (a one bedroom suite for a family of 4, a couple and 2 kids) and an excellent neighborhood. We will be back! more

We emailed ahead before we booked and had a very nice reply saying that they could make sure... more

My husband and I stayed at the Hotel Beacon in June this year and found it to be excellent in all aspects. Close to the subway, a great supermarket right across the road, cafe on the corner and a big plus for us, it had a laundromat - not all that easy to find in large cities. The staff were... more
