We were staying for two weeks in NY and we have tested several boutique hotels like Affinia 50, Shoreham and Elysee one. Shoreham is the option for people who like modern rooms, decorated in style, but the rooms are really tiny. Initially we were placed in a room with inside view, into the illuminator and it was dark all day... more

We spent a week in Midtown and found the location of the Shoreham to be just right: on West 55th between 5th and 6th (Avenue of the Americas). It was a quiet street with a grocery story at 6th, which we took full advantage of, even though the prices were high. We could easily walk the four blocks up 5th... more

I just returned from a long weekend at The Shoreham in Manhattan. The location was perfect for a tourist with a penchant for shopping! Designer boutiques along 5th Ave and Madison Ave are just a few steps away. Central Park is nearby, too. The hotel staff was very pleasant and helpful. I don't know Manhattan well, and the front desk... more

Booked a 4 night stay over Christmas in a Deluxe Executive King Room. Offer booked included 1 night free. Great value on the face of it. When we arrived on Christmas Eve, we found room to be large, but shower room tiny, and I mean tiny! Room was cold, dark, with stained carpet, chipped furniture and a view of a... more

really good rooms, and fabulous service. I especially liked the fact that they had a complimentary 24 hour tea and coffee area. Great location too, just around the corner from 5th avenue! more

We have just returned from a four night stay in New York. We decided on the Shoreham due to it's fantastic location and were not disappointed. Being on 55th it is handy for just about anywhere. 5th avenue is a matter of yards away, Central Park a five minute walk and Times Square twenty minutes at most. The hotel itself... more

a group of 8 of us stayed at the shoreham over the thanks giving weekend in 2009, I had emailed the hotel before and arranged to be picked up from the airport, when we got to the hotel we were greeted with a glass of champange(fizzy wine) and told our rooms wouldnt be ready until 3pm so we left our... more

I chose to stay at this hotel because I've stayed here before and thought it was great. Unfortunately the rooms are starting to look worn (chips on the bath, paintwork needs refreshing etc) and the weekend staff that we dealt during our stay with didn't 'deliver smiles' as the hotel website promises. The bar never seemed to be open when... more

My wife and I wanted to spend a weekend in New York overnight to include dinner and theatre. I choose the Shoreham based on mostly these types of reviews and travel websites(Expedia, Hotel.com, Kayak, etc.) It seemed its costs and review quality were of value. We were pleasantly surprised. The experience started with a very helpful doorman who took care... more
