The hotel is just fine - small rooms, tiny showers, old heating and cooling systems, slow elevators. It has a certain charm to it but it is expensive for what you get even in New York. Not a fan of the $30 a night resort fee which they said they credit back against food and beverage. We had breakfast one morning for $80 and they only credited one of the $30 nightly fees against the total as you cannot combine two nights of these fees against one meal. Nickel and diming Marriott Rewards members is not very smart given you can stay at a ton of places in this area for similar or less…..

What a brilliant hotel. I've always liked this property, but now? I love it!! The renovations are perfect and the entire staff couldn't possibly have been more pleasant and accommodating. My room was comfortable and lovely; the food was delicious and I am very sure I'll be back. Highly recommend.

The Algonquin Hotel is located just a block from the madness of Times Square and a hop-skip-and -jump from the acclaimed 5th Avenue shopping outputs. It is strikingly close to the best Broadway Theatres and the endless NYC key attractions. I have been visiting NYC all my life, but this my 1st visit to this hotel that is storied by 1920's writers and playwrights who would flock to the Algonquin as a popular rendezvous spot. My room was mediocre, seemed dull and a tad tired. The entrance had a quote from a luminaire that stayed here. The decor was classic with some neat architectural features like recessed windows. Above the headboard was a large black and white print of a city scape. The curtain mechanism had a heart attack and the climate control vent was ugly and more appropriate in a motel 6. The desk was appreciated befitting a hotel famous for writers. Bathroom was tight....just too tight. The hotel's main restaurant is called the Round Table as a nod to the circle of writers who used to meet here. On hand is American fare ranging from New York Strip to Crab Cakes and more. Drink-wise there's the properties famous Blue Bar serving up inventive cocktails The hotel is light on amenities, with no spa and a miniscule gym that is scantily equipped. This hotel fell short of my expectations: considering the historical value the sense of 'wow factor' was just not there. So if you desire a hotel with a great Times Square location and a rich history of famous patrons........then try the ..........Algonquin Hotel....Steeped in History.

Second time here, first was awhile ago, but office just moved next door so trying out hotels as have to be here weekly. I am titanium and don’t expect a ton (not worried about suite upgrade etc), but like at least some acknowledgment on points for breakfast and welcome gift points etc…neither offered here, I had to ask gentlemen if he had my number and would get those points? He was nice, but having to ask and then get a low level floor looking at an alley way is disappointing.

Good Day Phish1209, Welcome back to the neighborhood and thank you very much for your support as a Marriott Bonvoy Member. We thank you for this teaching opportunity to remind our staff to highlight and show our appreciation to every Bonvoy member that stay at our location. With the absence of an M Lounge on property, we do provide bonus points with each of your stay as long as the Bonvoy Number is attached to your reservation. As a boutique historic hotel in Manhattan, I'm positive the nice gentleman accommodated you with the best available room away from the hustle and bustle of the streets which would overlook the quieter alley way. Please feel confident in reaching out before your next stay and we'd love to make it right! Sincerely, Jason Yao Sr. Operations Manager 212-840 6800 ext 107

Lovely hotel, and small (big for NYC) but well furnished rooms. Good cocktails at the bar, and I got to meet Hamlet. Jennie at the front desk was fabulous and helped us with all we needed - she is a great ambassador for the Alqonquin!

Good Day jlynnaugust, Thank you for your kind review of our service staff and recognition of our well-established legacy and somewhat infamous cocktail culture. I was thrilled to read this commentary aloud in our front desk line up this morning and it brought a huge smile to Jennie's face. Catching people doing things right is so gratifying. Kind Regards, Willis Loughhead

I'm picky when it comes to hotels. Like really picky. Generic business hotels with bland walls and floors, basic room designs.. they just don't cut it for me. What does, cut it for me, are classic hotels full of art and interest decor and design. Algonquin Hotel is all of that for me. The rooms are small, but very beautiful and intricate. Each door has a piece of art and a quote which really made me feel something. There is even an old fashioned mail chute which I adored. The lobby is beautiful, it feels like you've stepped back in time. Now this hotel, it's not like many others scattered around the city. I live in the city, and I like to visit these hotels. This one is truly one of my favorites. It is so rich in history, which is happily explained by the staff there. And now, for the true star of the show, Hamlet. The hotel cat. This cat is the true icon of the hotel. I love him. Like I really love him. I spent so much of my time petting him and spending time with him, and he really made me happy. Also, shoutout to the staff for being so kind to me when I was crying when I was saying bye to mom. I really really recommend this hotel. An incredible experience that you have to experience.

Good Day krenarad, This incredibly positive review of your local escape, a staycation in our urban oasis on a quiet block in the center of it all was incredible to read. Thank you for hitting the nerve centers of the Algonquin legacy and appreciating all that we carry forward of this legendary hotel. We have recently been nominated for a number of travel and service awards, but none resonate with our management and long tenured line staff as positively as a review like this. Thank You. Regards, Willis Loughhead

I stayed in the "Deluxe" Queen. I was very pleased to be permitted to get my room earlier than the 4pm check in time. I was not so please to be told I would be taxed an additional thirty dollars a day during my stay. Sorry to say but this is NOT a luxury hotel anymore. It is more a boutique hotel with very little in the way of the the perks and finer touches offered by a luxury hotel. The window blind sags to the left, the bathroom door sticks and the view out the window (of the back) is depressing. It is very comfortable. The bed couldn't have offered a better night's sleep and the hallway was quiet. The staff are hard working and very pleasant but sparce after 8pm. There is no longer any room service. The restaurants are gone. The Rose Room and Oak Room are gone. The lobby area is transformed into an open bar with tables in the back. There is a coffee maker that is sometimes out of coffee beans .. so you get hot water instead of coffee. Much of the time, there is a door man but not in the majestic uniform as in days of yore. The gym is very small and boasts five treadmills, one bench, a dozen or so dumbbells and couple upper body machines - older models - and two flat screen televisions. Want breakfast? There is a restaurant next door - the Red Flame, which offers fast and freindly service at reasonable prices but the coffee isn't the best. And they get busy fast. The best croissants are down the street in a shop at Grand Central Station. Good luck.

Hello billB4656IB, Thank you for providing feedback about your most recent stay with us. I apologize that we did not live up to your expectations. Connecting with and taking care of our guests is paramount to us. Due to our status as a historic landmark (and also NYC's oldest operating hotel) many of the classic effects of yore remain and are unyielding to much physical change. The destination fee is included in the pricing on your confirmation. There are perks with real value that are provided with the destination fee: $30 daily credit at the Blue Bar. It also provides credit for CitiBikes , a Big Bus tour, and a riverboat tour. Your feedback is precious; we will use it as a training tool to better our service for our guests.

Had the pleasure of staying at The Algonquin for a weekend trip with another couple. I was a past guest in 2017 and recommended we stayed there based upon how wonderful it was back then. It did not disappoint! (Which was a relief since I had been the one to recommend it!) We were greeted upon arrival at the door by Peter and it was like seeing an old friend as I recalled how friendly he was and his excellent customer service skills from my previous visit. Our room was as expected and very clean. The hotel is located in a great location, close to many theatres and Times Square, making it easy to walk in that direction or opposite to the shops on 5th Ave. It was also great to see they continue the tradition with the resident cat, Hamlet. The hotel is rich in history, detail and a staff that is warm, friendly and welcoming as well as proud of this gem! When we departed, I said “see you next time!”, as our next trip to NYC will undoubtedly include a stay at The Algonquin! Bravo!
