We have stayed at this luxe little boutique hotel for years, and really enjoy the professional staff and clever, thoughtful room design. The beds are super comfortable and there are creative and fun touches like the pillow menu. Our last stay, however was problematic due to numerous housekeeping issues. The shower head, the bathtub drain, the iPod docking station....even the... More

We stayed a whopping (for us) 10 nights, so got to know the hotel very well indeed. Location is midtown, so close to many NYC favorites - Grand Central Station, MoMA, Top of the Rock etc. Hotel lobby is unprepossessing to say the least. Hotel greeting was very warm (Christine), and our room was fine - comfortable and spacious-by-NY-standards lounge... More

As an aside, another woman behind the desk (who was not helping anyone, was EATING... gross!). After finally... More

The Benjamin is an excellent choice -- well kept; excellent service and a great location. Excellent value. More

I stayed at the Benjamin for a night in January for business. Picked up a room for $125 via Priceline and was upgraded to a suite. Clean, comfortable and quiet. Great location - on a subway stop, near good restaurants, java, etc. I highly recommend this hotel. More

Enjoyed our stay at the Benjamin but it was missing the little perks it once had like evening turn down and soft music playing in our room on arrival. More
