Air conditioning in room 1707 was bad. It made a great deal of noise and cycled on and off 24/7.

Nice hotel located near NYC points of interest

Pros: Location and cleanliness
Location: Within walking distance of many NYC landmarks
The hotel proved to be very nice with friendly and helpful staff. Our room was on the 10th floor, very clean, quiet, and surprisingly more spacious than expected. The only slight concern was waiting for the hot water in the shower but with patience, all was good. The nearest subway is just around the corner so getting places was most convenient. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hotel Benjamin.

Everything was great!

Everything was great!  The entire staff was not only professional, but very personable and accommodating. From the doormen, to the bell hops to the front desk staff and the concierge staff...excellent service!!  My husband and I were celebrating our 23rd anniversary and we were graciously upgraded to a suite near the top floor, as well as complimentary champagne with chocolate covered strawberries and they even through in breakfast one morning!  Very classy!! Kimberly was fabulous!  Upon our return to NYC, we will definitely be staying at The Benjamin again!!!  Double thumbs up to all at The Benjamin.....you truly made our anniversary in the Big Apple a memorable one!!  Thank you for everything

Great location; fantastic staff; clean rooms

While I don't travel often, I have a heavy set of standards when it comes to hotel accommodations.  I booked this hotel online as part of a wedding anniversary package.  Since I booked online, I was nervous on the cab ride from LGA but those nerves were settled immediately upon arrival.  The accommodations were equal or great than how they appeared online (doesn't always happen) and the staff was incredible.  I'd go in more detail about how great the staff was but it'd be too long for a reasonable review.  However, I will say the service was top notch from desk, to bell hop, to the restaurant.  The food and the music in the restaurant was were great.  I would also like to point out that the restaurant was close to everything.  A subway stop is a block away, and great sites such as Rockefeller Center, Central Park, and MoMa.  I could go on and on but long story short this is a great hotel and I would certainly recommend staying there.

This hotel was one of the best we have ever stayed in!

The Benjamin hotel was fabulous! We had a 1 bedroom suite with a queen bed. It was extremely comfortable. The bed and the linens were heavenly. The staff at the Benjamin could not have been any nicer or more accommodating. We will stay at the Benjamin every time we vist new York!

Great hotel and room, but we found something off...

Pros: Close restaurants, great restaurant in the hotel, great views from the private balconies
On the second night there, as we were about to get into bed around midnight, we noticed that there was no top sheet on the bed, only the comforter. We called the front desk who promptly sent one up (which we had to put on the bed ourselves) and the explanation was that to reduce the environmental impact from the laundry, they didn't use them. For the life of us, we couldn't remember if there was one on the bed the first night, but unless they wash the comforters between occupants, it would seem to be less efficient due to their bulk as well as less than sanitary. Otherwise, it was a great hotel.
