Stayed at the Doubletree Metropolitan over July 4th weekend after getting a good rate on the Hilton website (including breakfast) and because of the mid-century modern architecture. The staff was very friendly on check-in, even though we were a couple of hours early they found us an available room. I was also able to get a late check-out without any... more

My wife and i stayed at the DoubleTree Metropolitan in late June 2009 for a couple of nights. We chose this hotel primarily for two reasons: 1) we stayed at this hotel back in 2005 and had a wonderful experience and 2) the price was very good. Although the price was still good, our room was a bit run down.... more

Stayed here for 3 nights over 4th of July Weekend. I booked though a certain low fair website that doesn't show names. It was worth that price, but not much more. Pros: Location - 6 train right outside the door (one stop from Grand Central), E and V trains 2 blocks north. Rockefeller center is a 10 minute walk away.... more

I would like to begin with the positives which fortunately for us usually involves the people part of the experience . All the staff members we encountered were courteous and helpful. The concierge receives special kudos for not only being helpful and courteous but doing so with humor and aplomb. There alas were several negatives that outweighed the positives of... more

If you are looking for a great NY hotel experience, this isn't it. Rooms are a bit tired but okay. If you just need a reasonably priced place to stay in a good location, this is okay (but you may well be able to do better). The room I had was a decent size, especially for NY. It wasn't particularly... more

This hotel was a great value and a great location plus it was a really comfortable, clean and pleasant. The rooms were average size. Overall a really nice and pleasant place to stay. It is not over the top service but that is not what is expected at a Doubletree. The staff we encountered were all very accommodating. The woman... more

I was very anxious about staying here after reading all the comments on tripadvisor. As I was travelling with a bunch of girlfriends from Ireland, who had selected this hotel and paid in full up front with Expedia. On first arrival, the receptionist was not the most friendliest person in the world but did however upgrade my room to a... more

We bought a package deal which included this hotel for a very good value. Being a package deal, I wasn't expecting much - so it was a pleasant surprise to find a hotel with friendly staff and adequate facilities. We were in the 9th floor facing 51th St., and it was a bit noisy, especially the fire station in the... more

From June 6 through June 8, 2009, I stayed at the Doubletree Metropolitan Hotel in New York, New York. After booking my hotel fare through Priceline, I called the hotel to make a few requests for my two hotel rooms. I asked the reservation attendant if she would include in my reservations that, if possible, I would like two rooms... more
