Vacations Close To Brooklyn Academy of Music

Beautiful historic hotel in a great neighborhood. The lounge and bakery were added bonuses. The only small complaints I have are I wished they had another spot for luggage in the room and a few more nice pillows on the beds. We got a couple pillows from the front desk, but they weren’t as comfy as the two on the bed.

Ok room but air conditioner fan is noisy. Toilet tank kept on runnIng.

Such a well situated hotel slap bang in the middle of Manhattan, walking distance to most sightseeing/tourist hubs. Room was fantastic, spacious, tea/coffee making machine, fridge which was a bonus, would 100% stay here again. 5*

The photo they show of the glamorous exterior was not our hotel experience. The entire front was covered with scaffolding which was a big negative. The front staff was not very helpful or even friendly. Upon inquiring we were informed that the “hotel” is made up of individually owned apartments which are then rented out for stays. So, simple amenities you may be accustomed to such as ice makers are non-existent - a simple request to the front desk for ice went completely unanswered. It’s not the customary hotel stay which is unfortunate considering it’s a pricy place to stay. There are so many other hotel choices in the big city and I would reco any one of them over this property.
