We stayed at the Algonquin for 4 nights, it is a very beautiful hotel, really charming. I did find the reception staff very stand offish, they seemed very reluctant to want to help you and when coming and going from the hotel, not once did anyone of them smile. As for the bellboys they were very good they were very... more

This is a perfectly-located hotel to enjoy Times Square, Rockefeller Center and other sights around midtown Manhattan, and is very competitively priced. Ordinary guest rooms are small with an awkward layout, and the front desk service is awful, but the overall ambience of the lobby and rooms is great and you won't find a more convenient, livable hotel for the... more

Although the hotel is only small that is more then made up for by its charm and character. The room was small but very comfotable and fitted out with everything you would need. The location is amazing, you really can walk almost everywhere from here and is only two blocks from Time Square. The loung is relaxed and serves a... more

What a place...the famed Algonquin Hotel and Matilda the Cat. The hotel staff was wonderful. They catered to every request I had. I think because I booked on their site and paid "full" price, I got upgraded to a suite without even asking. This was my one "splurge" during this trip. I did notice whilst checking in, some customers mentioned... more

Rooms very clean and fresh and nicely decorated. Staff were very nice and could not of been any more helpful.... more

I don't know where to begin. OK, I'll start with the arrival. From the moment we approached the door, which was promptly opened for us, we were in love with this hotel. Peter, the hotel manager (or maybe owner, I don't know!) welcomed us, as did Matilda, the famous cat. Peter mentioned that it was her birthday, so even better!... more

The Algonquin Hotel has loads of tradition, one of their traditions is to is to have a cat in the lobby that has the run of the place, the practice dates to the 1930s, hotel lore says actor John Barrymore suggested the cat needed a theatrical name, (as the hotel is blocks away from the theatre district), so it was... more
