Embassy Suites New York

Stayed here in Dec of 2008, between Christmas and New Years. The Location slightly worried us because it was far from all "the lights and glitz" of NYC, but boy were we wrong. The hotel was only a 5 minute walk to the subway, and a 10 minute cab ride to midtown. There was plenty to eat/do/see in the downtown area as well. We set out one night to explore and ended up seeing Wall Street, Trinity Church, South St. Seaport, & so much more, all within walking distance. The Accomodations were great. I like a room that is comfortable and home-like, so these suites were great for us. Offering 2 tvs, and the door between the living/bed rooms made it easy to "get away" from each other whenever we needed a breather from each other. The Staff was attentive and welcoming. Even when they may not be able to help at that moment, you knew they would get to you as soon as possible. Housekeeping did a good job keeping the suite clean and restocked with necessities. The Breakfast had a line, but nothing we couldnt deal with. Allow yourself 15-20 minutes and you will be fine. Dining around the hotel was easy. Pick a Bagel had some great sanwiches, Pizza Bolla had great pizza, and Starbucks is located across the street in the World Financial Center. Definately a place we enjoyed staying at. Will stay again!
