My husband and I stay in NYC 3-4 times a year and always like to find a new hotel for our stay. We traveld to NYC the weekend of 5/18/13 to attend a wedding and stayed at the Kitano on a friend's recommendation. What a surprise to find this lovely boutique hotel. The staff was extemely helpful and friendly. Our... More

My husband and I stayed at one of Kitano's $529/night room last night on 5/14/13 on the 8th floor. I took a shower and went to bed. Thanks to having my lights still on, 5 minutes later, I saw something moving on the pillow next to me. Jumping out of bed, I lifted the pillow and found 3 more bugs... More

I had a very nice stay at Kitano. I would happily stay again. The best part of the hotel is the service. Very professional. After a hard day of huffing it in New York, I looked forward to returning to the room and relaxing. For work, the location could not be beat. The room was very comfortable and I was... More

Very luxurious hotel. Small enough to be personal. Great jazz bar on premises. Room was very light with nice views of park Avenue. Pretty quiet given its location. A very pleasant experience worth the price.

My 40th and I've always wanted to toto New York. We had a lovely experience at The Kitano on Park Avenue. It is within walking distance of Grand Central (2 mins) and Times Square prob 10 mins. We did lots of walking and experienced fantastic food, culture, New Yorkers and so much more. The Kitano made us welcome and comfortable... More

Superb hotel, and I can't believe some of the negative comments.... So what if the restaurants are expensive - you have about a thousand other restaurants within walking distance. So what if there is no gym - you get free access to a nearby gym, which is probably a hundred times better than any hotel gym. What's the big deal... More

Stayed at the Kitano for 2 nights on a business trip. This hotel is centrally located on Park Avenue, by E. 38, only blocks from Grand Central. Yet, the quiet ambiance make it feels like a world away from the city's hustle and bustle! The staff is courteous and professional, the rooms are spacious and clean, even though they may... More

This has a fabulous mid-town situation, just visible blocks away from Grand Central Station. It was also the designated hotel for a family wedding. Our room was comfortable with plenty of walk around space and a beautiful view of the church across Park Avenue. We arrived much earlier than expected and, while our room was not ready when we arrived,... More

This is the third time I've stayed in New York City and I must say that the Kitano is the best hotel I've stayed in so far (I stayed previously at the Grand Hyatt and the W on Lexington). Room size: In terms of size, the Kitano offers exceptional value. Room space is quite generous with ample room to move... More
