We booked an Edwardian Suite, which is advertised as having concierge/butler service. Nope. Non-existent. We were not contacted by anyone offering anything and all of our discussions with the concierge desk were utterly useless. The hotel itself is great. But stay there for the facility, location and other staff (bell and cleaning were first rate). Quite surprised how utterly disinterested the guest services people were towards us. But we made our own fun in NYC.

Property is in an excellent spot to enjoy Central Park and 5th Ave shopping. Service was very good. Unfortunately, during our stay the exterior had scaffolding hiding the beauty of the architecture and the adjacent fountain was closed and walled off for service. Our room was very spacious (especially for NYC) but the carpeting and chair upholstery were both stained in several areas. Common areas feel like they could use more light. Overall, the Plaza could benefit from updating the interior in general. We had a pleasant stay but feel like this place might be coasting on its reputation from years past.

Comfortable. Clean , look under the bed and you’ll probably find a ball of dust, forgotten socks or name tags at a conference under the television console. I didn’t complain. It all depends on the background of the maid. Some are not very detailed but they try.

Worst Hotel ever
We had booked our hotel through Hotels.com. When we checked into the Plaza hotel in the morning, the receptionist was unable to find our booking initially. We sat down at the hotel lobby and had breakfast. She came to us that she had found the reservation and we all set. It was a prepaid reservation. When I returned back from the trip and was going through my credit card postings, I found out that the separately charged me for the same nights under Plaza hotel . I was double charged for the reservation when I called them and the night manager was really rude. They wanted me to call Hotels.com and get the refund. He told me that somebody will call me in the morning who is the manager, but I never received the phone call. This is so bad as I have stayed there at least three times in the past. I will never stay at this hotel again because the Front Office is inexperienced and they have caused us suffering by double charging us, I hope you guys read this review and Never stay at Plaza Hotel.

I was very disappointed with my stay. There was no water in the room when I checked in. There was no towels, and when I called service it, it took them an hour to bring me towels ( i followed up three times via call). Then I ordered breakfast for 7am, and they brought it up at 6:30am. Annoying. Not a fan of the Plaza anymore, service is really dropping. Going to Regis next time.

We have never had such a horrible experience at a hotel. Both of our daughters left with bed bug bites from the pullout couch, then we requested our car from valet and over two hours later it was still not located and the management at the Plaza did nothing to solve the problem. My husband finally had to use the geolocation app on our car to locate our car in a parking garage in the city and negotiate with the stoned attendant to give him our keys. Do not let the name of the hotel sway you- it is in no way worth the hype. It is lacking customer service and management.
