The hotel

One of New York’s prized historic buildings, The Algonquin first opened its doors to the public on November 22, 1902. Attracting the glitterati with its luxury accommodation and Time Square location, it’s been popular ever since and not just with humans! Yes, you read that right – several cats have also called The Algonquin home – each named Hamlet or Matilda according to gender and afforded the same hospitality as everyone else. Guest rooms are second to none in the city, effortlessly combining old world elegance with cutting edge amenities and stunning city views. There’s a fitness centre for the enthusiast or simply order a cocktail from the iconic Blue Bar, one of the most desirable meeting places in NYC and indulge in a bit of people watching instead. The Round Table Restaurant is another sought-after destination, once the haunt of literary and theatrical notables it is now one of the places to see and be seen.

Thank you Joanna Szepietowska (Jennie, Sherwin) and upper management for allowing us to cancel one of our Executives' rooms due to a Dental Emergency. We were past the time of cancellation and Joanna made a concerted effort to try to assist and was successful. It's an unfortunate rarity that client service is still a thing. I would most definitely recommend corporate bookings at this location. Ask for Joanna. She's receptive to responses as well. Read less

My wife and I stayed at the hotel for a weekend and found the location excellent and the rooms very small as we knew beforehand, but the first TV needed to be replaced and was, but the remote didn't work with new TV. The internet was down the whole stay which was OK, except the hotel didn't have a concierge and the doorman didn't know best way to Newark Airport. We took taxi to Port Auditory, but airport bus was available around the corner the theater information was limited. We enjoyed the bar and food was good in dining room but again service not good. The hotel had plenty of staff but poorly trained. We will stay again due to location but needs management change. Don’t expect hotel being a Marriott Read less

We came to NYC for the weekend to celebrate an anniversary with a favorite play and dinner. This is the first time we've stayed at the Algonquin and will not be our last. The hotel is a truly beautiful property with lots of interesting history. Edwin checked us in and he was so professional and welcoming. The charm of this hotel within such a close proximity to the prime tourist area made it feel like a haven. It is a true gem! Thank you for such a great stay. We also dined in the restaurant which was very delicious with the same excellent service. Read less

We stayed here for the location. We have never met a more friendly staff any where. The hotel represents old New York. While our room was small and the bath was small it had all of the amenities.

We stayed here for the location. We have never met a more friendly staff any where. The hotel represents old New York. While our room was small and the bath was small it had all of the amenities. The only drawback was a window A/C. Seeing the iron railing by the staircase, the restaurant with the picture of long ago celebrities and the dark wood made us think of times long ago. We had a light breakfast that was fine for us. Service was excellant. Again the staff were perfect. Read less
