더 니커보커 호텔

On arrival there was no one there to show us where to go we were just told to go to the back, when we got to the desk they took our card and charged us something like $500 more than expected just in case we used the in room dining. This felt very strange as there was no mention of this before our arrival and we’d planned our money for the holiday and would’ve preferred just to pay for the food as and when we purchased it. The room was nice, bed was perfect. Unfortunately there was some stains on the carpet floor and the blinds didn’t close properly. Also, a minor issue but the TV has no option for services such as Netflix so we were stuck watching basic tv channels or pay a frankly extortionate amount for ppv in the realms of $25 per film. Another issue with the room is the view, if you’re expecting a view of Times Square like we were you will be disappointed, all we got was a view of some offices and a concrete courtyard. The staff were lovely and made our honeymoon feel important with some chocolate strawberries and an extra drink. Location of the hotel is absolutely ideal, though its a shame the scaffolding is currently blocking us from getting a nice picture of it. Rooftop bar is really nice for a drink late at night but we would not have paid the prices if we didn’t have a drinks token. Is it 5 star? I wouldn’t have said so, the vast majority of the cost is purely for the location I think as the room/service is only really ‘okay’. Overall it was a nice stay.

Oasis in the middle of Times Square craziness. Love it because of that

Große Zimmer und Bäder sind ein klares Plus! Ein kleines Fenster ohne Ausblick, fehlende Tea u/o Kaffee Maschinen, überbewertetes Inhouse Steak Restaurant sowie Umbaumaßnahmen im Coffee Shop und der gesamten Fassade sind ein klares Minus! Bau- und Subway Geräusche bis in den 15. Stock Tipp: Warten bis die Renovierung vollzogen ist.

We didn’t eat breakfast

Good
