Good rooms although a touch small for my taste, well furnished but no trouser press. Excellent and helpful service ...the hotel has a great history and is well located. Breakfast restaurant however disappointing .

My dearest friend and I recently stayed again at the Pierre Hotel; they welcomed us back as old friends and were extremely personable and gracious. No request was too big and they made us feel safe and taken care of. I will never stay anywhere else while in NYC. We once owned an apartment on Central Park East and there... More

This is a very pleasant hotel in an ideal location for both shopping and business. The rooms are larger than most and mine was in good, modern condition. On the other hand, the bathroom was quite small with only a shower but no bath. Service is friendly and generally excellent with old-fashioned touches such as lift operators. A la carte... More

The Pierre is an outstanding provider of gracious and generous hospitality. The hotel is immaculate, quite lovely and extremely well managed. Every experience at the hotel, from the first greeting by the Doorman to a final goodbye is a positive one. I believe it is no small task for a quality service provider like The Pierre to achieve a consistent... More

My daughter and I enjoyed this fabulous hotel while visiting New York during the US Open. Through American Express, we were able to enjoy first the hotel and then the extra amenities AE allows. Breakfast in the room was delicious and the Happy Hour was more than we imagined. We will stay here again and again!

It is a great location on the park which is very convenient. The room was very nice and well done. However, the hotel is not really in the league of a four seasons in terms of service and attention to detail. The guest areas are a lot more run down than the rooms. The gym is average at best, especially... More
