My brother and his family came to visit me and we decided to spend two days in Manhattan as part of their NY / NJ adventure. We had two rooms that connected for the five of us. The two kids and I were in one room and my brother and sister-in-law in the next. As a former NYC resident, I was pleasantly surprised how large and modern the rooms were and accessorized with modern conveniences (flat screen TV's, sound sytsem with dock station, refrigerator, toiletries, safe, NY Times, etc.). The beds are ultra comfortable. If necessary, you can use the couch in the room as an alternate bed for a small child/person. Occasional noise from the hallway was the only issue I had. The price was right and the location is central to everything. The staff was very friendly and offered us some freebies. It was my family's first time to the city so they thought it was the cat's meow and my brother was quoted as saying, "this is swanky".

Very good location, you can walk to 5th avenue or cetralpark
Or you can leave newyork easily by train.
Stay near by grand central and crysler building
Lobby is moderate but marble statue feels you beatiful.
Reception people are cheerful and helpful
Rooms are moderate
Room service is a little bit expensive

But the main problem is ELEVATORS
You can wait for an hour

As a whole good Hotel

My friends and I visited NYC and stayed in this hotel. It's a beautiful hotel and very strategically located. The Grand Central's next door. It's not far from the hustle and bustle of Time Square. The room that we stayed in had two double bed. It was pretty spacious eventhough the bathroom was a bit small. It also has safe box inside the room where you can stow your valuables while you roamed the city. The market in the foyer was also nice. If you are a member of Hyatt, you can get free bottled water and coffee which was nice since bottled water was $3 sold elsewhere. One drawback when we were there was there were only one working elevator so getting up to your room took a long time but pretty sure they are fixed by now.
