The Plaza - A Fairmont Managed Hotel

We stayed here with our family, and the hotel was spotless and spacious—perfect for a relaxing getaway. It’s easily the best hotel we’ve ever stayed at in the U.S., with top-notch service and attention to detail. From the moment we arrived to the time we checked out, everything felt premium and welcoming. We’re already planning our next trip to New York and know exactly where we’ll be staying—this one’s a must-book for us again. Highly recommend it!

The Chatwal, in the Unbound Collection by Hyatt

Staying at The Chatwal in the heart of Times Square was an absolute delight. The hotel is small but perfectly formed—charming, elegant, and incredibly well-appointed. Being just steps away from Broadway and all the action makes it super convenient for exploring NYC on foot. The only minor downside is that breakfast is a bit pricey, so I’d highly recommend booking a package that includes breakfast to get better value. Overall, the experience was outstanding—luxurious, intimate, and unforgettable. Definitely worth every penny if you're looking for a refined urban retreat.

Tempo by Hilton Times Square

Staying at this hotel was one of the highlights of my trip to New York! The room offered an incredible view straight onto Times Square—watching the bright lights and bustling energy from my window was unforgettable. It's perfectly located for exploring the city, with subway access just steps away. The price was very fair for such a premium location and quality of service. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. I truly felt at home. I’d definitely book here again on my next visit to NYC—and I’ve already recommended it to friends and family.

Andaz 5th Avenue, by Hyatt

Staying at Andaz 5th Avenue was an absolute highlight of my trip to New York. The room faces the iconic New York Public Library, offering a stunning view that feels like stepping into a postcard—elegant, historic, and full of character. The high ceilings give the space a luxurious open feel, and the bed was incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night’s sleep despite the city's energy. The staff were attentive and friendly, always ready to help with anything. That said, being in the heart of Manhattan means it’s naturally noisy—especially at night—so I’d recommend bringing earplugs if you’re sensitive to sound. Overall, the location, ambiance, and service make this stay well worth it. A perfect blend of style, comfort, and convenience.

Graduate by Hilton New York

This hotel is hands down one of the quietest and safest places I've stayed in New York City, with an incredible view of Manhattan's glittering skyline. We traveled with our 2-year-old toddler, and everyone—including the little one—felt completely comfortable and relaxed throughout the stay. The rooms are spacious, the beds are super cozy, and the soundproofing makes for a peaceful night’s sleep. The on-site restaurant is absolutely a hidden gem—breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all delicious and well-prepared, even my picky eater loved it. Getting into Manhattan is just two subway stops away, making it incredibly convenient for exploring the city without hassle. The views from the room are stunning, especially at night when the city lights come alive. It’s rare to find such a perfect balance of comfort, convenience, and tranquility. Highly recommend this place for families or anyone looking for a high-quality stay in NYC.

The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout my stay—always with a smile and ready to assist. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed, offering a great balance of luxury and practicality. It’s rare to find such a high level of service combined with such a central, vibrant location. I’d definitely come back and recommend this hotel to anyone visiting New York.

The Peninsula New York

Among three high-end hotels in New York with similar price points and well-known reputations, the other two fell far short of their five-star billing—definitely a disappointment. But The Peninsula New York? Absolutely worth every penny. The room was spacious, beautifully designed with timeless elegance and artistic touches throughout. Modern smart amenities made everything seamless, and the service—from front desk to in-room staff—was consistently attentive, professional, and warm. Every detail felt thoughtfully curated. This isn’t just a luxury stay; it’s an experience that lives up to its legendary name. If you’re visiting NYC, this is where you should stay.

Mandarin Oriental New York

Staying at the Mandarin Oriental in New York was an absolute highlight among all the properties I've visited. Unlike some of the more traditional or compact locations like the one in Milan, this one stands out with its sleek, modern high-rise design and floor-to-ceiling windows facing the Hudson River—views that are simply breathtaking, especially during sunset. The room, while not huge, is thoughtfully designed with excellent functionality and luxurious touches throughout. Being just steps away from Central Park makes it incredibly convenient for exploring the city—whether you're heading to museums, shopping districts, or Broadway shows, everything is within easy reach. The location, service, and overall atmosphere make this a top-tier choice. It's not just a hotel; it's a true urban retreat. Definitely worth every penny.

Park Hyatt New York

After staying at countless hotels in New York, this Park Hyatt stands out as one of the most satisfying experiences I've had recently. The modern design is both elegant and comfortable—especially the heated floors, which made a huge difference during the colder months. The sunlit swimming pool area is fantastic; relaxing by the water with natural light streaming in was pure bliss. The only minor drawback is the lack of a dry sauna and a faint plastic smell in the gym area, but these are small issues in an otherwise top-tier property. Location-wise, while it’s not directly adjacent to a subway station, everything you’d want—restaurants, shopping, transit—is within easy walking distance. The convenience, combined with the high level of service and thoughtful touches, makes this a truly exceptional stay. If you're looking for a refined, comfortable base in Manhattan, this hotel delivers on every front.

Equinox Hotel New York

Staying at the Equinox Hotel in Hudson Square was an absolute delight. The amenities are top-notch, especially the spa — serene, luxurious, and impeccably maintained. I treated myself to a full-body massage, and every detail, from the calming ambiance to the high-quality products used, made it feel like a true escape. The rooms are sleek and modern, with plush bedding that guaranteed a restful night’s sleep. I also loved how central the location is — just a short subway ride away from Midtown and Times Square. Easy access to everything without sacrificing comfort. This place offers incredible value for the quality, and I’ll definitely be back.

Four Seasons Hotel New York

Staying at the Four Seasons Hotel near Central Park was absolutely unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, every detail was handled with care and elegance. Special thanks to Christina G. for her exceptional support—she went above and beyond to make our trip memorable. My 13-year-old daughter was surprised with a thoughtful birthday gesture that truly touched us all. The staff even arranged a private town car ride around the city, adding a personal touch to our experience. The guest rooms boast breathtaking views of Central Park, making every morning a delight. The level of service, the ambiance, and the overall attention to detail were outstanding. This is more than just a hotel—it’s a true home away from home. I’ll definitely be returning.

The Pierre, A Taj Hotel, New York

The Pierre truly exceeded my expectations from the moment I arrived. The staff went above and beyond—friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. While the restaurant menu prices were on the high side (a simple chicken salad with truffle fries and iced tea came to $90 before tip), it’s understandable given the location and upscale setting. That said, the real issue was the air conditioning malfunctioning during our visit—our room climbed to a sweltering 88°F, making it nearly impossible to sleep. We had to keep the windows open, which brought in a lot of city noise. The manager heard about our discomfort and responded with a thoughtful discount on our room rate—a gesture that really made up for the inconvenience. Despite the minor setbacks, the overall experience was outstanding. The location is unbeatable—steps away from shopping, dining, and public transit. The atmosphere, elegance, and level of service are top-tier. I’d absolutely stay here again the next time I’m in New York.
