I purchased a prepaid trip to Sedona Arizona with the promise of $15,000 points The only reason I pre-purchase The hotel was to get some free nights in my hometown of Goleta California. Lo and behold it cost 26,000 points to get the CHEAPEST hilton hotel possible... Goleta is a nothing town. Total scam and total ripoff!
This hotel provides fabulous value for an NYC vacation. Their suites (especially on the higher floors) are strongly recommended for families. Fabulous views and ample space in a prime location are offered for tremendous $ value if you book ahead. You are in a prime location vis a vis ability to get around using the subway, close to beautiful parks and great walks along the Hudson, not to mention right across the street from the Freedom Tower and 9/11 museum. Good food all within walking distance and for the weary Delivero or other services are an excellent alternative.
Extremely outdated, dirty rooms as well poor communication between staff. Beautiful view and great deal for the observatory package but room needs some desperate TLC. If you don’t mind the trade off then it is great but this is by no means a 4-star hotel in my opinion.
The bathrooms and carpet need some refurbishment. The location is excellent. Close to subway and local attractions. The staff is attentive and nice. Easy check in and check out process. Close to shopping.
This hotel is at such a great location! I was very hopeful it would be a good stay, but I was extremely disappointed with my experience. The room was dusty and not very clean. There was vomit in one of the elevators. The heat was so intense and there was no way to change it in your room - I had to sleep on top of the bed and not in the bed.
This hotel is a great location for touring the 9-11 museum and then hopping a tour bus to see the rest of the city. The staff was great and the room on the 23rd flood gave us a view of the monument from above. We only had 24 hours and the hop on hop off bus was the way to go.
Perfect location and very friendly staff. The room was clean, nothing fancy, but the view was fantastic from our room on the 45th floor overlooking the 9/11 Memorial. We only spend one night at Millennium Downtown, but I'm sure we will be back.
Hard to know where to begin. The room was filthy. I reached down to lift what i thought was a piece of thread the cleaners had missed, to discover it was some kind of red sauce; there were multiple older stains on the carpet and the sofa was too dirty to sit on. I worked in the room for a couple of hours and then got a little chilly so turned the heat on just before going out for an hour. On my return I quickly developed an allergic reaction, sneezing, eyes streaming. I turned off the heat and the problem eased. On examining the HVAC vent by the window I found it was disgustingly dirty - the dust it was sending around the room was the problem. I had to extend my stay for work reasons. The staff member I spoke to was astonishingly unhelpful. She told me the hotel would not extend my room - I would have to make an online booking that they would then connect to my existing one. She refused to acknowledge this was in any way bizarre. I followed her instructions as I was left with no choice and on checkout I was asked by another member of staff why I had two bookings for the same night - I had to fight to avoid being charged twice. My colleague extended with another staff member with no issues. I may stay again as the room size was helpful to my work, but this was one of my most negative hotel experiences ever (my line of work means many of my nights are spent in hotels). …
Overall good location with great views of the city. If you’re into architecture, this would be an ideal place as long as you stay on the higher floors. I would definitely consider visiting the hotel again if I’m staying in Manhattan.
Please, read all! I had a very unpleasant experience staying at Millennium Downtown New York. I booked a Junior Suite for 3 people for EIGHT (8) nights and the price was not at all equivalent to the services provided (300 USD a night): Arrival day: - No towels, no extra bed made, no fridge, heating not working (that was a serious problem during our 8 nights stay). - Extra bed to be done took more than 4 (FOUR) hours after first call. - The publicity of the Hotel showed a comfortable queen sofa bed at the entrance of the room (that the room could be for 4 adults and 3 children), the reality was a small sofa bed that a person with 1,60 cm slept with her feed outside. - Very cold room, when trying to put the heat on it did not work and it was like a “stone crusher” was being used inside the room. Second day: - At the reception, when I explained that the room was cold and asked if there was an electric heater available, the receptionist told me to BUY ONE AT A SHOP CLOSE TO THE HOTEL. Do you think it is acceptable as an answer? - For the bed he said they would install an extra bed. What was done, but it was a VERY old bed. - For the fridge I was told it could be installed and I WOULD HAVE TO PAY for it. What I did, but in many years of traveling I could never imagine a hotel without a fridge with a room costing around USD 300 a night. Can you? Hotel had no restaurant; in room breakfast was brought on a bag (really bad presentation and food); had no bar; there was a construction going on the main entrance; carpet was very dirty all over, corridor and room, very old, dirty and unhealthy carpet; the hotel had no direct call to hotel itself, guests would speak with someone in India or elsewhere, anything you had to ask would take hours. Worse part: check out day, around 8:30am, there was a couple sleeping on the corridor, probably for hours, pissed on themselves, snoring and totally obstructing our passage. Their belongings spread allover. Where was security? How can no one have noticed? Were we safe the eight nights at the hotel? I do not think so. Is the heating certified for human health? I do not think so. It is a hotel with very serious problems! PS: it is not a Hilton!…
