I had the rare experience of staying at a hotel in my own home town...first off, these guys wrote the book on boutique hotels. Even as a native New Yorker, upon walking through the double wooden doors at the entrance, I felt that I'd truly, 'arrived.' The location seems to strike the perfect balance between the somewhat frenetic energy of... More

I recently stayed at the Royalton on a business trip and really appreciated several aspects of my visit. The staff was great: friendly and very helpful on the few requests that I had for information about and services at the hotel. They went the extra mile to be responsive and take care of me. My room was well nicely designed,... More

My stay didn't start as well as I hoped when I arrived after a very long flight, only to find no doorman and I had to lug my large bags up the stairs, heave the huge door open, and then head inside. Throughtout my stay, the doorman was a bit of a ghost, sometimes there and sometimes not. Interestingly, all... More

LOve this small hotel on West 44th right off of Broadway. So discreet you might miss the entrance. But come inside and find yourself in the swankiest looking Lobby ever. Low sofas and chairs around beautiful tables for your cocktail and viewing pleasures. The fashion trade makes this Lobby Bar their go-to place. The Restaurant '44' is just a menu... More

The bad : If cheap look, dark everything is your definition of... More

Stayed here for a quick overnight. Lobby staff at desk and lounge were attentive. Everything in the room was as advertised. iPad a nice touch. Very clean and nice room comforts. Location speaks for itself. Most of all a cool place to people watch and pre-game for a night out on the town. More

We stayed during the Superbowl weekend (great atmosphere on times square when they won, Let's go Giants!) First of all this was a very nice period to visit NYC, not too busy. When we arrived around 3PM there was no one at the front door. We climbed up the stairs and opened the very heavy doors ourselves. That was it... More

I just spent a week in NYC for work. Not only was the hotel stylish, well located and comfortable, I had an amazing experience with the very friendly and professional staff. Without the help from the concierges, Natalia and Clay and the additional help of Jennifer Snowden, Heather Johnston, Melissa at the front desk and Angel Pan, as well as... More
