    I would have liked a tea/coffee maker or at least a hot water kettle in the room.

    Room was comfortable & well-appointed. Good bed, shower. I liked that breakfast voucher was provided for the French bakery-cafe directly below hotel.

    The room was the smallest I have ever stayed in (had to be under 200 sf). I have stayed at dozens of hotels in NYC and thsi was by far the smallest. I felt claustrophobic. Gaps around the door allowed many sounds to permeate the room. Loud neighbors were easy to hear. Some of the front desk staff were very friendly and greeted you coming and going. Others just stared at you. Lastly, the tiny French bakery has nice pastries, but the wait at anytime of the morning is at least 20 mins. I would have appreciated a $10 credit to the Starbucks across the street. I HATE resort fees! I know this is becoming common place but it is a bad practice. I suppose they need to subsidize the bakery.

    The bed and desk chair were comfortable. The shower water pressure was great (strong). The housekeeping was excellent. Most of the staff were friendly.

    The only concern was how very tiny the bathroom was, given I was sharing it with my sister. Bathrooms in New York City hotels are of course often small but this one was at the small end of the scale. And, my mattress was a little firm for my taste. Neither of these things will keep me from going back though!

    The location and the quality of the staff could not be beat! The building has a beautiful European vibe and the French bakery. Next door breakfast can be obtained is fantastic.

    I traveled as a family and we got 3 rooms. We had a big surprise when we arrived at the hotel and discovered that the breakfast that appeared on the first page of the booking was actually a 10 dollar voucher to be spent in the hotel store, with guests in line every morning to exchange for food and no direct change if you simply wanted a coffee. I had a problem of more than 3 hours checking in to one of the rooms. I also had to change one of the rooms because it had a column very close to the toilet which made it difficult for a taller person to use. Be careful not to stay in a room in the service elevator area as it is very busy due to the hotel's cleaning staff. Other than that, the location of the hotel is good and so are the rooms.

    good location

    The noise from the corridor at night was an issue. People talking very loud and going in and out from their rooms.

    The location was exceptional, 3 blocks from Central Park and metro stations nearby. The room was excellent, very clean and comfortable.

    There is no central lounge area. And the wi-fi is spotty to non-existent.

    It’s a wonderful place to stay on the UWS. It’s close to the subway and all the restaurants & bookshops you’d ever need. Plus, it’s attached to the Mille Feuille Bakery!

    Downside that it is far from mid and lower Manhattan.

    Boutique hotel with a nice location close to beautiful Central Park, but far from lower Manhattan. Nice and comfy rooms, small but functional bathroom and newly renovated hall ways. Kind and helpful staff, and yummy breakfast. All you need!

    The wifi is no good , despise the fact that we booked the room with breakfast , there was actually a voucher of 10$ per person for the cafe that was part of the hotel and with it you could buy a coffee and a croissant ,for anything else you had to pay more. Also in the cafe every morning the was a really big queue.

    The hotel is in a very nice spot, the building is very well preserved, the rooms and the hotel generally are very clean. The staff of the hotel was very polite and helpful.

    Wi-Fi was poor, and dropped intermittently. Room was smaller than most. Breakfast option w vouchers for a bakery was a poor idea, and there were always queues, unable to cope with the volume of people. Our particular room backed onto the elevator, and too much mechanical noise from that. Bad neighbours meant too much loud conversation at 1 - 2 a.m. , but not hotel’s fault.

    Excellent location. Staff were super responsive and friendly. Room had most conveniences, Good shower. Comfortable bed. Comfortable temperature. Mostly quiet. No kettle, but brought up to room on request. Free daily water.

    Although the public spaces in the hotel are handsome, I was unimpressed with my room. It was certainly comfortable and quite spacious for a solo traveler, but the grey walls were drab and a bit gloomy in a room that received little natural light. I realized this color scheme is currently fashionable, but a room looking out on an airshaft would be more inviting and comfortable painted in warmer colors.

    The location is wonderful, particularly for people who appreciate the architecture and atmosphere of Manhattan’s Upper West Side. The hotel’s access to public transportation is excellent, with buses practically at the front door and the subway just two short blocks away.
