    In our numerous trips to and through the inimitable New York City, we seek a certain quality of accommodations... Come late afternoon, we were ensconced in a room that exuded contemporary with touches of Asian aesthetics, complemented by a delightful fruit ensemble and local Saratoga bottled waters... The room's temperate atmosphere was notably warmer than preferred due to the A/C unit being down, a shortfall that seemed somewhat incongruous given the substantial nightly rate of $700/nt... While elements of our stay were undeniably commendable, at a rate of $700 per night, our expectations were regrettably not fully realized...

    Found the hotel when looking for spots near midtown convenient to Broadway theaters... We booked a park view and we’re upgraded to premium park view suite on 19th floor... Excellent views up the park, and huge room - lots of space... The decor was unique and the rooms were quiet... We were told we could order room service 24-hrs, so we returned to our room only to find the online ordering unavailable and no one answering the room service line...

    ...Not only is the service terrible, but the rooms are very basic, dirty, and lack even the most basic amenities. The rooms have no kettle, no coffee machine (only offered at an extra cost of 35$ DAILY and they make bad coffee), no slippers, and do not offer space suitable for anyone who is traveling on business and needs to work... The rooms are very dark and bathrooms very small... Despite repeated complaints about lack of cleanliness (including an incredible amount of dust to which I am allergic, as well as old contact lenses, other peoples fingernails, bits of food, etc on the floors) the room was never regularly cleaned properly... To top this off, the manager, staff at the front desk, and room service staff were all very unhelpful...

    ...It is a lovely hotel with amazing views of Central Park... This time I was traveling by myself and had booked the hotel for a week's stay to visit friends there... I was still greeted pleasantly when I arrived and, when I asked about an upgrade, was told the hotel was almost full and they had only a junior suite with a park view available, which they could give for a small extra charge, much less than the regular rate... My only problem was the room temperature being too cold... I really did not need the heat on but just could not get the temperature in the room above 68° no matter how much I increased the temperature, even up yo 83°... What I finally learned the day before I left was that the rooms cannot be change from air conditioning to heat... Since I was last there they did a total renovation during COVID (2020-21) so it now has a more modern and upbeat atmosphere vs. the previous more traditional and conservative style... Even with the issue of the room temperature, which never has happened before, I will stay at the hotel again when I am in New York in the future...

Noise level
Noisy
Many travelers expressed that they could hear a lot of external noise inside their rooms, especially due to single pane windows. However, some said they couldn't hear much noise from the hallway.

    ...The only drawback we experienced were as follows 1) external noise can be heard quite clearly inside the room which makes it difficult to sleep/can wake you up from sound sleep 2) seemed like there was only 1 elevator working during our stay which made going up to our room (on the 38th floor) abit of a tedious task Otherwise without a doubt I’d highly recommend the property!...

    Very well run hotel with stunning views of Central Park, immediately across the street... Also, if you can afford it, recommend at least one breakfast on 47th floor (especially on a sunny morning) Ms. Suarez, Guest Service Manager was extremely helpful when I was having trouble understanding the website and trying to make arrangements to have breakfast at the 47th floor restaurant... Staff is extremely friendly, which is nice to see in a luxury hotel... Sometimes when we've stayed in 5 star hotels, the staff seems like you should be honored to stay at the hotel... It's the opposite hear - everyone we talked with including very nice people in the 47th floor and on the first floor "grab and go" breakfast area was extremely friendly... 10-12 minute, safe walk to theater area... 5 star no only in the quality of rooms, but also the quality of people...

Beyond the lovely attention to detail and unique trimmings, it was the personalized attention from guest service agents, servers at Rose Lane and Harry’s, bellmen, housekeepers, housemen, doormen and all hotel staff which made our visit to Park Lane so memorable... Would highly recommend, and will be back with more friends and family!...

    This has been my worst hotel experience at this price point ever... Not only is the service terrible, but the rooms are very basic, dirty, and lack even the most basic amenities... The internet is also horrible and cuts out all the time... We had to leave handwritten notes reminding the staff to dust, leave clean mugs, leave new soap, etc... To top this off, the manager, staff at the front desk, and room service staff were all very unhelpful...

    ...From the moment you arrive, the doorman first asked my name so he can address me properly. He took our bags and valeted our car... Check in was a breeze and the bellman was waiting with our bags when we were done... We noticed many including the scented air coming up from the vents, the warm towels offered at check in, and the birds chirping as you enter your room... Park Lane is second to none and I hope I have the privilege of staying here again soon!...

    ...We chose Park Lane thinking it was a 4.5 star hotel opposite of central park but the service has been far from that. We requested early check in and though I understand this is due to availability nothing was done to accommodate my meeting hours (even though I exaplained at check in I would only be back by 9pm) , I had to stop by 3 times to follow up on my request of a better room at a cleaner area, I was told all those time that I was going to receive a call from reception and I never did... The bellman put the sticker on my bag handle and it didn't come off, the bold guy that works at reception in the afternoon / evening hours was rude numerous times and I will make sure never to have an executive from our company stay at this hotel again...

    ...After booking our reservation back in June, from the get go I was in touch with David, our concierge, about finalizing all the details to make our time once we arrived stress free and enjoyable. This included: setting up transportation to/from airport, making dinner reservations, having a special bouquet made and waiting upon our arrival, arranging picnic in the park, general advice on navigating the city, and so on and so forth... The speed, willingness, and completeness which he performed all the above was truly impressive and appreciated... Thank you for everything, David and Park Lane!...

He knows the city backward and forwards and made a huge difference in getting our transportation sorted... One of the concierges practically staged a photo shoot when I asked her to take a photo of my boyfriend and I before we went out for the night - she was so thoughtful and warm and wanted to make sure our memories were captured... Gorgeous room but even better staff!...

    ...During these prior stays, we were upgraded to a higher floor with a park view at no charge... I was still greeted pleasantly when I arrived and, when I asked about an upgrade, was told the hotel was almost full and they had only a junior suite with a park view available, which they could give for a small extra charge, much less than the regular rate... During my entire weeklong stay, the front desk staff were always friendly, accommodating and helpful... And the housekeeper on my floor, Yubelkys, was lovely and did a wonderful job... Likewise Marie and Leo, two of the staff in the Grab and Go on the first floor where I got breakfast 5 days, were so nice and provided efficient and friendly service... The front desk staff and doormen were also quite amiable!... After reporting it the first day, maintenance came up (while I was gone) and turned off the thermostat and left a portable heater... The hotel's location is perfect for getting around to various parts of the city and has great views and excellent service...

    In our numerous trips to and through the inimitable New York City, we seek a certain quality of accommodations... This time, with Central Park as our backdrop, we were drawn to a boutique hotel, its digital persona on Instagram evoking elegance and promise... Come late afternoon, we were ensconced in a room that exuded contemporary with touches of Asian aesthetics, complemented by a delightful fruit ensemble and local Saratoga bottled waters... Overlooking Central Park, it offers an ambience second to none, though I'd proffer a piece of advice: ensure reservations are made in advance for this coveted experience... For those inclined towards a more distinctive start to the day, a brief excursion to Sip + Co and the nearby Liberty Bagel would be time well spent... While elements of our stay were undeniably commendable, at a rate of $700 per night, our expectations were regrettably not fully realized...

    I took my 6-year-old daughter to New York for the weekend and felt like I hit the jackpot finding the Park Lane Hotel. The location was perfect as it was directly across the street from Central Park, where we went ice skating, went to the Zoo, and enjoyed the incredible lakes and grass areas throughout the park... We also easily could walk to Lincoln Circle and Times Square... The view from the room has to be the best in New York City, and all I can say is WOW!... For all the great things offered by the hotel, the highlight of our trip was Mauiso from their front desk as she was the kindness, most helpful person and I can't thank her enough for being so thoughtful to my daughter and making us feel welcomed... I highly recommend the hotel, location and staff, and I can't wait to take my younger daughter on the same trip in a few years!...

    Due to a fire in our apartment, we have been hopping around hotels in NYC and Park Lane is our favorite so far. The rooms (panoramic view king suite and queen double), are spacious for NYC standards, clean, and comfortable... The views of Central Park from the panoramic rooms (above 25 floors) are fantastic... A special call-out for Mounia on the front desk as she went above and beyond to find us adjoining rooms when we decided to get another one for working purposes after the first night... Will definitely recommend Park Lane to friends visiting us in the future... Just an FYI- no coffeemaker in the rooms so bring an electric kettle/coffee maker if you want tea/coffee...

I highly recommend the Park Lane for a pleasure trip to NYC and will stay again in the future... The staff delivers excellent service in a prime location...

**BUYER BEWARE** Spend the extra money and stay at the Plaza or Ritz. Here was our experience: After waiting in the lobby with countless other people an hour after check in, we finally got a room. At $1500/night, that hourly rate is a decent salary, but the hotel didn’t care to take our time and money. So late check-in, then once we were in the room, relaxing, a hotel staff member knocks then immediately enters the room with their key card. We did not have clothes on. He came back again maybe 5-10 minutes later and did it again. Then housekeeping did the same thing, except the time from knock to opening the door with their key card was maybe 10seconds instead of immediate. Felt like living in a frat house the way they walked right in—then gave us some else’s welcome note or American Express points sheet. A Ms Weinstein and some other name I can’t pronounce and ours. Three welcome letters to one room. I dont imagine the other guests appreciate us reading about their information, but the knock and immediate enter was incredibly intrusive. We thought it would happen the entire stay. When I checked out, they ask how the stay was and I told them what happened. “Oh, I’m sorry to hear that.” Did their survey email and their Director of Rooms reach out, “oh I’m so sorry.” They don't care. Full price. Terrible experience. Full price. Bottomline, they JUST WANT YOUR MONEY, and do not care about service or your privacy. Look at adjacent hotels. We will next time.

Hotel's Favorite
Well it’s been two years since we have been able to travel out of South Africa. My wife and I have stayed at the Park Lane many times and just LOVE it !!! Great location right on the Park. And a pleasant surprise when we arrived back there two days ago was that a beautiful full renovation was done in 2020 when NYC was shut down. The new bathrooms are particularly awesome and the beds as comfy as ever. Also great to see the staff again and that they have survived the past two years. Then an essential mention is EDITA who works on the front desk! She is awesome and it felt like she was a best friend or family member who we reunited with. Edita is an asset to the Hotel and does herself proud ! Awesomeness , out . . .

The staff at the check-in desk displayed extreme rudeness during my check-in, leaving me quite frustrated. However, when I turned around, Rodney, the bell captain, noticed my discomfort and approached me, asking how he could assist and bring a smile to my face. He genuinely transformed my entire experience, and every encounter with him throughout my stay was marked by kindness and helpfulness. Rodney is truly a gem, the secret sauce at the Park Lane Hotel, and I sincerely hope the management recognizes his exceptional service. It's because of remarkable staff members like him that I'll always choose to return to this hotel. In fact, I'm back again this weekend!

One of the best NY locations with a wonderful view of the central park. Besides that, I would add: 1. Quite expensive, but the view may be worth 2. Room amenities not at the level of a 4 stars hotel: no coffee machine, poor bathroom toiletries, daily supply replenishment not always done 3. Few elevators running, and this may become a problem on the busy weekends Overall, if the location and the view are your priority, you will not be disappointed.

For the cost of staying at this hotel I found it hard to believe that my 2 rooms faced the back of a building and that there was no coffee/tea mini bar or other facilities. The room was clean and location amazing. The service is very average and compared to other 5 star hotels I have stayed in I was disappointed in the oversell experience.

Me and my daughter had a quite pleasant stay at The Park Lane Hotel recently. Everything started with the amazingly friendly front desk lady Monnia. She was attentive and helpful. She had answers and solutions to all my questions and requests. The view from the room was spectacular. Room service had gluten free items which we really appreciated. Would definitely go back! Highly recommended!

Would stay here again in a heartbeat - wonderful friendly helpful staff. Beautiful room, loved the decor. We had a city view which we enjoyed very much. The highlight of our stay was the incredible view from breakfast in the Darling restaurant on the 47th floor over majestic Central Park, a bucket list breakfast for sure.
