Everyone was so friendly and helpful, with a special big thank you to Brendan for the extra touches that made our stay extra special! He really is a credit to the hotel. The suite itself was spacious and comfortable, and kept spotlessly clean by the lovely house-keeping staff. Thanks to everyone, we enjoyed every minute of our wedding week and we’re definitely planning to be back next year for our anniversary!! 💚🍾 Read less

Just back from a 4 day stay at Fitzpatrick Hotel Grand Central. The location could not have been better it is central to most places and just across the road from grand Central station which is a huge plus. All the staff are excellent in particular the reception staff which are extremely friendly and could not do enough. Everything was spotlessly clean. Our room was cleaned everyday and the bed was really comfortable. It is not a modern hotel if anything it is a little old school but this just adds to its charm making it very homely and comfortable. Could not recommend highly enough will definitely be back. Read less

I brought my daughter to NY as a 21st birthday present from last December. We booked The Fitzpatrick Grand Central. We arrived on Wednesday the 22nd of November 2023 for 4 nights. From the minute we walked into the hotel till the minute we left all the hotel staff were so helpful, friendly and kind. Our room was spotless, the housekeeping staff were so good, anytime we met them on the floors or in the lifts they all greeted us with big smiles and welcoming hellos. On Saturday night when we arrived back to our room we had a note saying the hot water was going to be turned off from 10pm Saturday until Sunday at 10am(it was out of the hotels hands as it was works going on out in the streets) We were up early on Sunday morning and had our showers in the cold water(it wasn’t that bad actually) We ate a few times in The Wheeltapper Pub which is part of the hotel and the food was excellent. Brendan, Evan, the 2 Sarah’s, Quon and Jeff were so accommodating everytime we went out and came back. Asking if we needed anything at all. The hotel was very central to everywhere if you liked walking, which we did. But if you’re not a walker the hotel is situated next to Grand Central train station. We used the subway a few times and found it so easy to use. I will definitely be back to visit NY with my husband and I’ll be booking a stay in this hotel. Read less

Just returned from a 4 night stay in Fitzpatrick Grand Central. It was great. Staff were so friendly and helpful including Sarah, Evan and Brendan in reception. The rooms were lovely perfect for our stay. They were cleaned daily and the beds were super comfy. The hotel is in a good location not far from Times Square and Rockefeller and right next to Grand Central Station which is handy to get subway. Garfield one of the concierge was so helpful in booking tours and Summit One for us. He told us the tour options available and we booked the 2 day down town and uptown tour with him. This was great for us as we seen loads. The stop to get the tour bus was less than a 10 minute walk to the Knicker Bocker hotel. He booked Summit One tickets for us as well. But the wrong time was chosen and and earlier times were sold out. We were flying home that evening so limited on time. He was so helpful in assisting us get our money back for the tickets. The money came back within 2 days. Overall super service from Garfield. He’s a credit to the hotel. Overall really enjoyed my stay. It was my third time here and will definitely be back. It’s a home from home in NYC. Read less
