Family of 5 reserved two rooms in this hotel. Even though we had called to confirm 1 room had king bed and the other had 2 dble beds this was not the case at check in. Peter, at the front desk, was helpful, professional. Upgraded us to exec. king rooms with a rollaway. Not ideal, but we managed. Offered to... more

We stayed here during the first week of July. Whilst the public areas are generally good repair and what you would expect we found the rooms to being showing signs of age and not as clean as we would expect. Originally we had rooms overlooking the Waldorf where workmen were hammering way past 2 o’clock every night. We complained and... more

Just spent 3 nights at the Barclay and had a decidedly mediocre experience. I have IC Ambassador status, which provides more amenities/better service than to nonmembers. There is a dedicated check-in for Ambassador members, which was quick but impersonal. I was upgraded from an executive room to a junior suite. Pros: The junior suite was quite large and decorated in... more

We arrived on a wednesday afternoon around 1pm and were met by friendly reception staff for an efortless check-in. We had a lovely room on the 7th floor which was a great size and comfortable for our 6 night stay. There was ample storage space and lots of room to move about. The bed was so comfortable, we both slept... more

But it was very clean, the staff was very accommodating, and the location was great. I had been counting on a robe, since I had read somewhere that... more

Having read previous reviews of this hotel, I was a bit apprehensive about staying here but actually thought it was a great hotel. We were checked in quickly, and when I asked for a room on a higher floor was told that only queen rooms were available on higher floors. However I went with this and was not dissapointed as... more

Through Orbitz we paid an average of $350 per night over a long weekend at the Barclay. Not cheap, but not unreasonable for NYC. Our room was a decent size for NYC, there was room for a desk and two chairs, two suitcases and two people to move comfortably around. The view was nothing to speak of, the hotel is... more

This was our second time staying at The Barclay. We were well aware of the quality of the rooms and the ideal location. The service is pretty good too. Those things have not changed. But, checking in on this Friday afternoon was a little ridiculous. The hotel should adequately staff for peak times, since we received indication that this was... more
