We planned to elope in New York on 12/18/25 and booked our stay with Element. We had an amazing view of the Empire State Building and the Edge Building. The view was gorgeous and the room was very nice. The bathroom was spacious and the bed was actually comfortable! I would definitely stay here again and I highly recommend it!

I had a wonderful stay and I’m glad I chose this hotel over others. Our seven-day stay was very comfortable and truly enjoyable. I had a wonderful stay and I’m glad I chose this hotel over others. Our seven-day stay was very buffet breakfast was excellent, and the staff—especially in the dining area—were very accommodating and well trained. The extra miles of service they are providing is incomperable. There was some minor wear and tear in the room that needs attention, but it was not a major issue. My only concern was with the front desk staff who assisted us during check-in (Geo, along with his manager). His manner came across as rude and arrogant. We asked if we could use the restroom, and he informed us that the hotel restroom was out of order. However, there was an alternative restroom on the second floor available for temporary use, and he refused to provide the key, even though guests were waiting in the reception area after checking out and waiting for their taxi. I later observed that another guest was allowed to use the restroom, which felt unfair and inconsistent. I understand that hotels have policies, but such rules should be applied equally to all guests. Additionally, the hotel already had a copy of our passports, so safety should not have been an issue. I have stayed at other Westin properties and have never experienced this kind of behavior as a hotel guest. This situation was disappointing and should be reviewed to ensure better guest service and fairness.

The location is outstanding, close to several metro stations, lots of eating places around. Room cleaning happens every other day. I wish it was every day but that is better than some other hotels. The hot water takes a while but once it gets hot it is good and has steady pressure. Awesome for a good baths after a brutal day of walking in NYC and having to touch the handrails in the completely filthy metro system. There is no issue with having extra towels. They allow you to control your own room temperature, great for my wife who changes the room temperature 3 times every night... Breakfast has many great choices and the support staff is very attentive. Having a great breakfast at the hotel is a fantastic perk in this very expensive city. Food costs are outrageous in NYC. There is a fridge and microwave in the room. Check in was easy. Check out was easy. I do not like the $250 hold placed on my card but what can you do. There is a gym on site. We opted for a room with a city view. I highly encourage you to pay extra for the city view, it was worth it. The guest laundry and general use bathroom in the basement looked like it has been broken for a very long time. Knowing what I know now I would still choose this hotel, simply because in the overall scheme of things the scale goes to the positive side. Great breakfast, clean room, friendly staff, and location, location, location.

Building and room was very neglected. TV and phone not working, bathroom leaks, the front door to the hotel, just various little inconveniences and staff would not care when brought up. Many amenities including the rooftop, laundry room, and downstairs bathroom were “out of order” the whole time I was there for a week. Housekeeping and breakfast staff were amazing though.
