Vacations Close To Hall des Lumières

I once watched a documentary about a Norweigan prison. The room looked like that, but without a desk (although with a bathroom.) This isn't necessarily a bad thing, it's just the color is truly seafoam-green prison-ish and of course the rooms are tiny.

Excellent and right in Times Square

Lady at check in rushed through the process and grabbed our credit card and inserted it to pay for the $45/day fee (no idea what it even covered and wasn’t explained when asked). The rooftop bar was open to the public and required a reservation that was not explained ahead of time and the guy at the Elevator was rude about it. Overall, Location is not ideal, it is almost a mile to the closest subway, and there are not many food options close by. The staff throughout the trip and at the end at checkout were really nice including the bag storage. We’ve been to NYC multiple times and decided to try something new and overall was disappointed by the “amenities” fee and inconvenient location. Overall experience was not horrible, but I would not recommend this hotel to somebody.

The front desk staff was incredible and we had a great stay - would absolutely recommend to other travelers.

The Renwick is a historic hotel. It’s very small. I thought it was odd when I arrived, I got no help with my luggage, but there was nobody there to help me with my luggage. But that’s OK because they couldn’t have been more welcoming once I got to the front desk. The front desk staff at the Renwick could not be more warm and welcoming, they’re funny they’re polite, and they’re professional. they will try to help you and accommodate in any way they can. they have a great understanding of the history of New York as well, which is helpful. Maintenance are helpful, and also kind, smart, resourceful, and will jump to help you with any of your needs. They are New Yorkers, so it’s fun to talk about how New York has changed over the years with them. Part of being in New York is experienced the flavor of New York from people who live there a long time. I found housekeeping, lacking. The room was never dirty, not like that, but I often didn’t have enough towels, didn’t have a bathmat, just small things like that, I continually had to ask for things that housekeeping should’ve already replaced. However, I’m glad they asked if I needed to change my sheets, I don’t change my sheets every day at home no need to change them every day in a hotel. The heating and cooling system is proficient. The hotel is wonderful for international guests. There were many, mostly. Breakfast is yummy, needs more choices. But the hostile male culture at the bar restaurant I chose not to patronize. A NO!
