Hi Mary, sorry to hear you didn't have a 5-star experience with us. We do have express check-in and check-out ipads for those travellers who prefer to get up to their rooms as quickly as possible--however, we do always have our PUBLIC Advisors on standby to assist when needed!

Hello Katherine and thanks for your feedback. I'm sorry that you were unhappy with the view from your room. I'm not sure which room you were in, but we sell rooms by bed type and the view in relation to the buildings that surround us. Many views in NYC can be somewhat limited, but our Great View rooms provide unobstructed views of the city. It is very rare for us to close the Roof to guests of the hotel, and only do so when we know that all the other food and beverage outlets within the hotel are open and able to accommodate our guests. We hope you will give us another chance soon. Warm Regards,
This property is closed from March 23 2020 to March 31 2021 (dates subject to change).
