Staff very efficient and clearly enjoyed working for the organization. Room immaculate. Very modern and eco-friendly. Would definately book this when in NYC. And the service and breakfast variety was better than many in Europe and Asia. Good value all around. And very near Times Square, resturant row and theatres.

At 5 AM we are woken up by the sound of water pouring out of the ceiling light in our bathroom. The floor is covered in water and it’s like a rain storm. We called the front desk to tell them that something in the floor above needs to be fixed, and we need buckets. By 6:30 AM it was fixed. And they brought in men to mop up the floor. But to compensate for our lost night of sleep and turning our bathroom into a rainforest, they deducted $50 offa $600 room. Totally inadequate!

Our family of five just finished an incredible stay at the RÍU Plaza New York, and it reminded us exactly why the RÍU brand continues to be top tier for us. Finding a hotel in NYC that comfortably fits a family of five is almost impossible these days, yet RÍU delivers with spacious rooms, thoughtful layouts, and amenities that truly make traveling with kids easier. The free breakfast was absolutely off the charts — huge selection, fresh, well-run, and a massive value when you're feeding five people in Manhattan. It set the tone every morning and really elevated the entire stay. The only downside was an interaction with the manager at the on-site Fashion Bar. Her approach to simple guest questions came across as skeptical and guarded, almost as if she’s been burned too many times. It didn’t match the warm, guest-first attitude we’ve consistently experienced with the RÍU brand. It wasn’t enough to ruin the stay, but it was the one moment that didn’t feel like RÍU. Overall, the RÍU Plaza New York remains one of the best family-friendly options in the city, and we’ll absolutely be back.

First time at the RIU and everything was perfect. Busy hotel but lots of elevators that were always in service. Great location close to theatres and lots to eat nearby. Breakfast is so worth it, cereal, cold meats and cheese, fresh fruit and usual eggs and bacon. we didnt eat again until dinner. Room was spotlessly clean and quiet. Didnt hear the neighbors once for the 4 days we stayed. Lots of towels and nice to have a fridge. Bed was comfy and heating AC worked well. Staff were alway polite and smiling. Riu is now our future go to for NY Broaway trips.
