I stayed at The Empire Hotel in june 2008. We arrived at miday and from the moment myself and my partner walked into the lobby we were amazed at the standard of the hotel. It was clean on first inspection and were dumbfounded at the quality of the decor and the modern feel to the place. As a brit i... more

My family and I booked two rooms for 4 nights at the Empire largely because of the location, standard of accommodation and access to the roof-top pool (expecting NYC to be hot and sticky in July). We were not disappointed. Both rooms were excellent, and we really enjoyed our stay. the hotel is really close to the subway/underground and Central... more

Just returned home from three nights in New York City and stayed at the Empire Hotel for the first time. It certainly will not be the last. I'm always looking for well appointed and well located hotels that are somewhat affordable and not too large. Located directly across the steps from the plaza at Lincoln Center the hotel is perfect... more

We stayed at the Empire end of June through July 5. The location and staff were wonderful! We had a deluxe queen room and had two adults and two teens in the room. It was a little crowded but the beds were very comfortable. We were located in one of the inside rooms on the 9th floor. We had no... more

I stayed here when attending a tradeshow at another venue. I had never stayed in this area of the city but, I liked that is was more of a neighborhood, rather than midtown. Rooms are small, however they are decorated very nicely. I couldn't figure out the shower right away, was somewhat confusing as to how to turn the "waterfall"... more

I am a regular visitor of New York City, having stayed over 200 nights in just the past ten years. As prices rise, I've tried to find bargains, even though I travel on an expense account. The excellent reviews of the Empire on TripAdvisor and their fairly reasonable rates (about $350 a night) led me to stay there even though... more

I booked this hotel because of its location on the Upper West side of Manhattan so I could be nearby the meeting I was attending. The selections on that side of town are few, but this hotel turned out to be fantastic, with two nearby subways stops to get everywhere. Hugely stylish (and very recently renovated) lobby and rooms, though... more

Since our favorite suite hotel, The Rhiga Royale (sp) is now The London and commands a very hefty price, we decided to book our stay thru Hotwire. Upon finding out the 4 star hotel we drew in Central Park South was The Empire, we were very concerned because of all the negative comments on Trip Adviser. We called the hotel... more

We stayed at the Empire over New Years and very much enjoyed the room, service, and location. The room we had (Jr Suite) was very sizable, excellent value for location & size in NYC. Large flat screen TV and sitting area as well as a very comfortable king size bed made for a great stay. I highly recommend the Empire... more

I was a little concerned about booking a room at the Empire after reading some of the Trip Advisor reviews, but I have to tell you, my room was great! I got a good deal through a special on Travelzoo and so I booked a Superior King instead of the standard room. The Superior room was quite big, especially for... more
