Their letterhead says "the jewel of New York " and it is absolutely true. We always enjoyed staying here with our sons when they were younger and now that they have renovated the rooms this hotel is better than ever. We always appreciated the residential upper west side location across from the best supermarket in the city (fairway), and a... More

Stayed at the Beacon Hotel for six nights, with four of us in a 1br suite (two rooms, two double beds plus rollaway). Great location very accessible to the subway, Lincoln Centre and Central Park. Just a little less hectic than midtown. Lots of good restaurants nearby in Amsterdam Ave and Columbus Ave. Good rooms, bathroom ok, small kitchen so... More

This is a very good hotel in an excellent location. The rooms have self-catering facilities and with 'Fairways' across the road this was a bonus. The rooms are well-equipped. Not only did we have an oven, microwave and large fridge-freezer, we also had a suite with two massive flat screen TVs and it could easily have accommodated four people. We... More

The room was spacious, really good bed, big kitchenette, friendly staff, good location close to an efficient subway station, close to a big market +++. Clean. Only down was that the A/C wasn´t functioning properly, but would probaby have been resolved if we had reported it.

Our family of 4 (including 2 teenage children) stayed at this hotel for a 9 day trip to New York. I echo all the comments about great location and space. Its not a luxury hotel in terms of fittings etc but more than made up for by the luxury of having heaps of room for our family-more like an apartment... More

We booked a short stay at this appealing, but unassuming hotel after reading its many rave reviews. The Upper West Side location is excellent, a Subway station yards away, crosstown and downtown bus stops nearby, and plenty of local diners and small restaurants nearby. Our bedroom was larger than the norm for the city, we had a small kitchen, perfect... More

Was a little wary about staying at this hotel as it felt quite far out compared to other hotels we’ve stayed in in New York but having stayed here I wouldn’t waste anytime in the future looking anywhere else. My only comment would be that if you’re wary of taking the subway (though it’s incredibly easy and safe once you... More

We chose the Beacon for its location. You won't find better. The Upper west side is a residential area, classy, full of great local , non touristy restaurants bars and shops. Totally spoilt for choice for eating out. Words cannot describe how good the Fairway supermarket deli is across the street and the drinks store right next door with the... More
