    Pros +

    • Everything about this hotel is perfect! Location, cleanliness, room size, staff, etc... all exceptional!
    • The impeccable service and excellent staff. Hotel in the middle of Union square. Spacious room (for NYC standards). Overall a great stay.
    • Location is excellent. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. It was almost instant responsiveness when I called front desk for something we needed. Rooms brand new and spacious. I don't think we will stay anywhere else.

    Cons -

    • Nothing!
    • the renovations were trendy but extremely dark in our room, even with the lights on. dark carpet dark wallpaper - too much black. we should?ve been told they were going through renovations. no lounge, place to eat or even just sit down. very disappointed
    • There was some minor construction happening, but it did not really interfere with our stay. No noise issues whatsoever, just a small area of the hotel blocked off.

    Great location, friendly staff, clean room. I relized after staying here that most hotels have annoying heating/cooling systems that go on and off all night. This hotel does not, just a quiet consistant white noise. Thumbs up.

    Beautiful building, more space in my room than many New Yorkers have in their apartments. Great staff, easy walk to Tishman and Fotografiska.

    Liked the room and the location

    They served coffee in the morning but did not have decaf coffee?

    5BrianPosted on: 11-3-2018

    the room was not the one pictured on your website they told me it was a mistake

    7Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 1-3-2018

    Location was excellent, staff was nice

    We had issues at check-in as the second person's name was added to the room the night before, however this did not show up in their system, so she had to wait for about an hour before I was able to call (I was on a flight). Room was cold, esp in bathroom

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 12-31-2016

    It was a smaller more intimate and very personable hotel. The staff was friendly and extremely helpful in every way. The restaurant was excellent. The room was large and very comfortable. I felt secure also.

    I loved this hotel and would make this a first choice coming to New York. The only very minor complaint I had was there was a bit of stain on the carpet and the woodwork around the bed was a little dusty.

    big rooms, welcoming good service and they allowed a free 5pm late check out which was nice and helpfull.

    lobby, to the extent there is one, small and not too welcoming, i like lobby service and atmosphere which was a bit missing to my taste.

    10MichellePosted on: 9-27-2016

    Hotel was trendy, rooms were great, bathroom products excellent. The hotel bar was awesome with good drinks and a dollar oyster happy hour deal.

    Staff was a little slow to bring things up after calling concierge.

    9Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 4-21-2016

    Spacious, clean room

    In general, the staff was extremely friendly. However, the woman at the front desk who greeted us upon arrival seemed annoyed by our questions and was less than helpful.

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 4-14-2015

    Great location, nice sized room

    elevator was really slow

    5LauraPosted on: 5-28-2019

    Staff is extremely friendly and professional.

    Not crazy about the prices of their room service or restaurant prices...just a tad high

    6Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 5-1-2018

    Stained sheets, bathrooms yuck

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 10-10-2017

    The location was perfect for my needs.

    I can't think of a thing!

    8JessicaPosted on: 2-16-2026

    Beds were exceptionally comfortable. Location is prime to Union Square Station. The Welcome cocktail was a lovely touch. Bar lounge is stunning with excellent cocktails, dj and vibe.

    WiFi. Also missed having a large lobby -common space. In-room dining menu was not easily accessible.

    We enjoyed everything about the property! This ideal location had great restaurants and shopping nearby. I highly recommend the Ocean restaurant for upscale dining (kid-friendly), and one of the largest Barnes & Noble locations is right around the corner next to a delicious chocolate shop with crepes and milkshakes. Plus the Seahorse restaurant was conveniently located inside the hotel and room service was excellent. We ordered breakfast daily! The staff were very attentive and extremely polite! The front desk, doormen, and concierge team. Thanks for all your help, Chloe! And I have to mention how well kept the rooms were during our stay. The cleaning staff went above and beyond to accommodate us with a daily turn down service, and fresh linens. We never felt rushed to leave our suite but we always returned to a clean, comfortable room. We were very impressed!

    Nothing at all. We can’t wait to return!

    10JillPosted on: 10-12-2025

    The hotel was beautiful, very clean, great products in the bathroom, very big rooms for our family of 4. The staff were outstanding, extremely helpful and friendly. Great location. Can’t wait to return!

    Nothing not to like.
