The hotel

Thanks to a multi-million dollar makeover The Benjamin Hotel in Midtown Manhattan is looking hotter than ever and if you want to dive into a world of boutique luxury then right here is where you rip off the covers and get involved. Although the designs and modern touches are bang-up-to-date the level of customer commitment goes way back with pretty much 24-hr everything ranging from the front desk to the fitness room to the in-room spa and beauty services. The gourmet snack boxes alone will have you hungry for more and if you want a real taste of classic New York City style then check out The National Bar & Dining Rooms that's got grand café chic down to a tea. As The Benjamin Hotel stretches to almost 30 storeys there's no chance of getting lost in the city and as major attractions, such as the MET, the Empire State Building and Madison Avenue, are all just a few blocks away this is an excellent base to experience the best of the Big Apple. Finally, guest rooms have every box ticked with kitchenettes and mini-fridges ensuring you can definitely have your cake and eat it.

We had a wonderful stay at The Benjamin. My family always goes to New York in December to see the city at Christmas. This year was obviously different due to COVID and this was our first stay at The Benjamin which was a spectacular hotel. We stayed in a large suite with a balcony that overlooked the city. It was extremely clean, we felt very safe and the staff couldn’t have made our stay better. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, the location was within walking distance of early everything we wanted to see, and the room was bigger than anything we’ve stayed at in New York before. Absolutely recommend, especially if you’re looking for a safe getaway during COVID. Read less

After a nice stay for work, I had to extend my stay an extra day and the front desk not only lied and charged my card nearly twice what I was quoted (they never sent me a bill and had to ask for it multiple times from very rude front desk long after my stay to figure out why the extra night came to well over $600.) I was also charged for smoking… Read more

I was also charged for smoking in the room. I didn’t but the hallway reeked of cannabis; my company Ate the charge but the $200 extra per night I was charged— plus the exceedingly rude and unhelpful front desk and customer service—-MEANS THAT I WILL NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN!

The team exceeded my expectation during our stay. Service was consistent, Courteous and consistent. The rooms were clean and the bathroom and kitchenette were well stocked so we didn't need to for anything. A great thanks to Merrill, Katya, Trang and Jerry who made our stay very special.

Great stay on our first visit the front desk and Jamie the bellman did a GREAT job. The location was excellent and we upgraded to a suite for $15. We were close to shopping. The hotel went out of there way to make use feel welcome. Very close to second and third avenue shops and places to enjoy a cocktail or fine food.

Thanks… Read more
