After reading, searching and analyzing nearly every hotel in Manhattan, we decided to try AKA Central Park. My mother-in-law and I were travelling from Australia for a 10 day holiday and are both completely paranoid about filth and cleanliness which was a priority for us. After some of these reviews we were extremeley nervous as to what was waiting for... more

The AKA Central Park is the perfect place for you to be in the center of the Big Apple because it's on 58th street between 5th and 6th Avenue and only 1 block from Central Park! The rooms are huge, with daily maid service and best of all. Free Wifi internet and breakfast included, something that only a luxury hotel... more

If cleanliness is next to godliness - prepare to spend the night in hell. If you like the smell of canine urine on the furnishings you will enjoy your stay. If you have no sense of smell or cleanliness this is a great location. Noisy too, if that's your thing. more

I travel a lot. This time I heard about AKA and I wanted to give it a chance and was excitedö but it turned into a nightmare. We got there after an 11 hour of flight. Just in the middle of the night the toilet got stucked. The staff attitude was terrible. Especially the gu named "JOSE" in the front... more

I have staded with my family some days ago for the New York Marathon. Since we arrived we had a problem with our reservation. The type of room we booked it wasn´t what we got. Also, breakfast was horrible. Only 6 tables for the big hotel. No service, no food, nothing to eat or drink. I can not understand how... more

We have stayed at the AKA several times over the last few years, and though it was always great, it keeps getting better. We like the large and stylish one bedroom apartments, perfect for staying with our 5 year old because of their size and the presence of a kitchen. The free continental breakfast is wonderful (fresh pastries, yogurt and... more

AKA Central Park has a great location just 1 block to Central Park, 2 minutes walk to 5th Ave and very close to Subway stops on a few lines. We stayed in a 1 bed apartment in the hotel. There is a laundry room in the basement (free of charge) for all guests to use though at times it was... more

After about 30mins we were finally checked into a room, with an option of changing the following morining (as the bed was smaller than... more

We just returned from our stay in the Central Park location. The location is great and the room is spacious and clean. The breakfast is also wonderful - however, the supervisor is constantly overlooking guests eat and checking to see how much is taken, ect. The "business center" is not really a business center. It is a four-computer station with... more

Stayed here for first 5 nights of our holiday in NY as wanted to be close to Central Park; we were not disappointed. Apartment block is 3 mins from the park (which should be an absolute must on any NY visit). Reception staff were incredibly cheerful and everyone was helpful and accommodating. The hotel offers a complimentary breakfast (not cooked... more
