The Wallace Hotel
The Wallace Hotel is an absolute gem tucked away in a quiet residential neighborhood of Midtown, yet it feels like you're right in the heart of everything. Step outside and you're greeted by Central Park on one side and the Hudson River on the other—perfect for morning walks or evening strolls with skyline views. Within a 5-minute walk, there are two well-stocked supermarkets, so grocery runs are super convenient. And if you're craving authentic flavors, you'll find some excellent local eateries nearby—authentic Xi'an dumplings and Shanghai-style steamed buns that are surprisingly delicious. The subway station is just steps away, making travel across Manhattan effortless. The staff are professional, friendly, and always ready to help. Most impressive? The bedding—luxuriously soft and incredibly comfortable, making for a truly restful night's sleep. This hotel delivers on every front: location, convenience, comfort, and service. A top-tier stay that’s hard to beat.
Hotel Lucerne
Hotel Lucerne is a charming, long-standing hotel with a classic American vibe that feels warm and welcoming. The rooms are spacious—especially the living area—which makes it ideal for families or anyone who values comfort. The breakfast is fantastic, consistently delicious, and it’s clear locals come here often—the place buzzes with energy every morning. Staff are genuinely friendly and attentive, and fellow guests seem equally kind and approachable. Location-wise, it's in a quiet residential neighborhood with everything you need within walking distance: grocery stores, cafes, and even a quick stroll to the Natural History Museum. Perfect for travelers with kids. The AC does make some noise, but after nearly three weeks in the U.S., I’ve heard worse—just turn it off at night and stay cool. One small note: the hairdryer is a bit outdated and not very powerful, so upgrading that would be a great touch. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. If I ever return to New York, I’ll definitely book here again. Highly recommend! 🌹
Wingate by Wyndham Bronx/Haven Park
This hotel is an absolute gem! The subway station is just a short walk away, making it super convenient for getting around NYC. What really stands out is the complimentary sparkling water and ice-cold water—something you rarely find in other hotels in New York. The front desk even gives you a reusable bottle that you return upon checkout, and there’s a self-service water station on the first floor near the elevator—so practical and eco-friendly. The room layout is smart and thoughtfully designed, offering great comfort and functionality. Just two blocks away, there’s a small grocery store with fresh, affordable fruit—seems to be run by a Korean family, perfect for grabbing snacks or drinks. And if you’re into sports, Yankee Stadium is within easy reach. Overall, this place offers incredible value and a truly pleasant stay—highly recommend it!
Northern Lights Mansion
My stay at Northern Lights Mansion was a mixed experience. The furniture looked like it came from a yard sale—mismatched and not cohesive in style. Extension cords and TV cables were loosely run and exposed throughout the room, which felt unsafe and unprofessional. The bathroom door wouldn’t stay shut, requiring constant adjustment during use. Unfortunately, the jetted tub I was looking forward to was out of service, which was disappointing. Breakfast was an additional charge, and while the food quality was decent, the extra cost made it feel less value for money. On the bright side, the staff were friendly and helpful, making the stay more pleasant on a personal level. Overall, the hotel has potential, but improvements in room upkeep, safety, and guest amenities would go a long way in boosting the experience.
HI New York City Hostel
This hostel truly stands out among budget accommodations with its high-end features for a dorm-style stay. Each bed comes with its own privacy curtain, individual reading light, and power outlet—plus there's a small built-in light in the cabinet (you’ll need to bring your own lock). Every floor has shared sink areas, and the bathrooms are thoughtfully separated into dry and wet zones, making them both functional and hygienic. What really sets this place apart are the endless activities—daily tours, a lively welcome party, and even yoga classes. If you’re not booked on anything, just go with the flow and join the hostel’s events; it’s an easy way to meet fellow travelers and make friends. I’d definitely choose another HI USA property if I travel to other cities—this one is a real gem.
Comfort Inn & Suites Near Stadium
The room was surprisingly spacious and very comfortable. I appreciated the convenient location just a short distance from the stadium—perfect for attending events without hassle. The overall value for money was excellent, and the quiet environment made it easy to relax after a long day. I’ll definitely consider staying here again when visiting New York.
Aloft Harlem
Staying at Aloft Harlem was an excellent experience overall. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a soft bed that made for a restful night's sleep. I loved the lively street view—great energy and vibrant city vibes right outside the window. The location is central and convenient, with plenty of restaurants, shops, and easy access to public transit for exploring Manhattan. The air conditioning worked incredibly well, keeping the room cool and comfortable even during warmer evenings. One minor note: the unit made a bit of noise when running, but it wasn’t disruptive. All in all, this hotel offers great value, modern design, and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend for travelers looking for a stylish yet practical stay in Harlem.
Imperial Court Hotel
The Imperial Court Hotel is perfectly located—walking distance to major attractions and surrounded by great dining options, making it super convenient for exploring New York. I stayed in a suite, which had potential but definitely needs a refresh. The room felt quite dark, with brown carpet and walls that made the space feel cramped and gloomy. There was also an unpleasant odor lingering, and the lighting was insufficient, which made the atmosphere less than ideal. It’s clear the rooms could use a much-needed renovation. That said, the concierge team absolutely stood out—they were friendly, genuinely helpful, and even brought a smile with their humor. Their excellent service really saved the experience. While the room condition was disappointing, the location and staff made it worthwhile. Definitely worth considering if you’re looking for a central base with great hospitality.
The Central Park North
My stay at The Central Park North was absolutely excellent. The hotel is spotlessly clean and perfectly located—just a short walk from two subway stations, making it incredibly convenient for getting around the city day or night. I appreciated how quiet and safe the neighborhood felt, even during late-night arrivals or departures. One standout feature was being able to leave my luggage at the front desk before check-in time with no extra charge—such a helpful touch for travelers with early flights or tight schedules. Everything about this place felt thoughtfully designed for comfort and ease. Highly recommend this gem in NYC.
The Gallery House
Staying at The Gallery House was an absolute delight from start to finish. The apartment is beautifully designed with a unique artistic flair—African masks and sculptures are thoughtfully placed throughout, giving the space a truly one-of-a-kind vibe. We were six people, and despite that, there was plenty of room and comfort. The large main bathroom plus a convenient smaller service bathroom made daily life so much easier—something rare in New York! Our host was incredibly welcoming and attentive, always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. Best of all, it’s less than 200 meters from the subway station, putting every major attraction just a short ride away. Whether you’re exploring Manhattan or just relaxing in style, this place offers the perfect balance of charm, convenience, and comfort. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat—highly recommend for anyone looking for an authentic, memorable NYC experience.
Upper East Suites
This place is nowhere near what you'd expect from a 'suite'—in fact, it's just a private studio apartment rented out like an Airbnb. The cleanliness level? Zero. We walked in to find a dirty sock sitting on the radiator. The shower curtain was stained and torn, there was no soap for washing, and we used the same towel all week. That infamous radiator makes a loud, grinding noise every morning from 6:50 to 7:40—like a steam engine running nonstop. The chair was broken, and the sofa smelled musty with visible signs of dust mites. To make matters worse, there were no bed sheets or duvet covers provided—we had to ask for them and even install everything ourselves. This isn’t how a suite should be. Located on the ground floor, the only view through the heavily taped windows was a pile of garbage bins. If you're not being paid to stay here, RUN. Seriously, avoid this at all costs.
Renaissance New York Harlem Hotel
Staying at the Renaissance New York Harlem Hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The room size was just right—comfortable and well-proportioned, with a spacious bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. The view from the upper floors is fantastic; you can see far into the city skyline, especially stunning during sunset hours. There are plenty of small shops nearby, so grabbing snacks, drinks, or essentials is super convenient. I enjoyed walking to Columbia University—about a 20-minute stroll through residential streets, which felt safe during daylight hours. That said, I did notice the neighborhood’s safety level is average, so I’d recommend being mindful when walking around late at night. All in all, it's a great choice if you're looking to immerse yourself in a real Harlem vibe without sacrificing comfort or convenience. The value for money is strong, and the hotel delivers on atmosphere and practicality.
