A Great Weekend!

The hotel is very nice: spacious rooms, comfortable beds, superior service. The location is great if you need quick access to the financial district or World Trade Center site, but a good distance from shopping and sightseeing venues. Subway within two blocks, which made getting around pretty easy. Restaurant had a wonderful breakfast bar, although it was quite expensive!
The concierge was very friendly and helpful with directions and restaurant reservations.
Great Hotel!

This hotel far outweighed my expectations! It was hands down the best hotel experience I have ever had in New York City! The staff was very friendly and helpful, the hotel was beautiful, the rooms were nice sized and clean, the food was good and the rates are quite reasonable. When I booked the trip, I was nervous about the location (downtown, away from all the exciting New York action), but after my experience, that did not matter to me, everything was just a cab or subway ride away. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the city, you will not be disappointed.
Extremely happy!

This hotel surpassed my expectations with not only superb service but also with the quality of the rooms, decor, location (room with a view overlooking the Hudson River,) concierge service, front desk, bell attendants and front door's men! Everyone my party came in contact with was friendly, smiled and was ready to serve. Our room was stylish with contemporary furnishings, cozy with a large picture window. The marble counters in the bathrooms were an added plus and the bedding and pillows were very luxurious and comfortable. I definitely recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the financial district. This hotel is close to a subway (short walk) and close to an indoor shopping area and Century 21 department store as well as Trinity Church, St. Paul's Church (by Ground Zero) and various small restaurants. Young patrons can walk easily to the other side of Manhattan to the East River where Pier 17 (South Street Seaport is located) with a wonderful shopping complex that has something for everyone. I truly enjoyed this hotel!
Nice Hotel

We went for New Years Eve this year and stayed here. The front desk people were friendly, they were helpful. The hotel has a bar/resturant and a resturant, the prices are high. Our bill in the bar for hamburgers and main coarse salads for 4 people (included 1 glass of house wine and 1 beer) was $*. The lobby was really pretty. The are down there in the financial district was really quiet at night. We would come home at night around 11 or 12 and walk around the corner to one deli that was open and bring stuff back to the room. The thing I didn't like the most was the bed size. They are only full size beds! I thought nicer hotels were all queens by now! My husband is big, so that was quite uncomfortable. Another thing was the bathroom, it is small, the toilet/bathtub, and sink is all in one bathroom...so we were cramped in one trying to get ready. One more thing is the space, we had 4 large suitcases and there was hardly any room for them, we had one in the hall as you walk in the room, one in the closet, one on the dresser and one on the chair. BUT, overall it is a nice hotel and if you can put up with the small beds, bathroom and space then I say stay here! Thanks...
