Very well located close to Central Park, 5th Ave and Rockfeller Center. Check-in was fast and they accommodated us with an early check in without charge. Parking (valet) for $40, decent. Room is old, but decently spacious. Shower was great. Mini fridge was not working but they immediately brought a replacement. Lighting at the room was poor (especially inside bathroom). Breakfast was included and it was good enough. Overall a good stay, but as most hotels in Manhattan, too overpriced for what you get.

The hotel is well-located, the staff is professional and the breakfast/snack room and library are fine. Our room had old stained furniture with broken hardware and peeling wallpaper - and while clean it did not feel spotless. This is unlike the other Library Collection hotels which are more updated.

This is an older property in fairly good condition. The rooms had enough space. Everything in the bathroom worked well, although there was not enough room for all of our cosmetics and medicines. Climate control worked, but was difficult to set for the desired temperature. The room was serviced every day, which was nice. The breakfast was a continental breakfast, with no protein, other than hard boiled eggs. The machine for espresso and cappuccino worked really well. Overall, there was nothing inadequate, but at $450 per night, it was very expensive for what we got.

Very very disappointed. My sister had stayed here on and off for years on business and was always promoting their excellence. Such a disappointing place to stay. Needs many updates including room working card keys, air/heat working and staying on and not making big noises in the room, breakfast options - pathetic unless you want sweets, pathetic handling of above mentioned problems by front desk and management. Would NOT recommend at this time. Perhaps they will take care of problems which they said they are looking into - should have told us about all the problems when we checked in. We could have then gone elsewhere. Our one compliment would be to Gary, the doorman who gave excellent service in a friendly manner. Thank you Gary!

Lovely older hotel in the heart of Midtown. We enjoyed the charm, hospitality room and breakfast. The front desk provided us with a great dinner recommendation (and reservation). Despite the fact that some of the furnishings in our room could use an upgrade, it was overall a very good experience.
