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.

Let's say, you are replacing your air conditioning and you just want some time away in a beautiful place in the world's best city, the Benjamin has been a first and foremost beautiful, continuing experience. Even without their restaurant, the National, they are constantly providing a 5-star experience from beginning to end. I would recommend it to all and every overseas traveling person, at all times. Thank you again for your lovely hotel. Read less

I chose to return to the Benjamin because of my excellent past experiences for another four day stay. Given the Cover 19 context, I was very focused on picking a hotel that would be very focused on maintaining the highest possible precautions. I was happy to find the Benjamin very disciplined here. All staff wore masks at all times and hand sanitizer was readily available in the lobby and near all elevator doors. I choose not to have daily room services and the staff accommodated this by picking up trash and used linens outside my door and leaving fresh supplies and towels in a bag outside my room. My room was very clean and appointed with all the comforts I have enjoyed on past visits. It was easy to order take out from nearby restaurants and bring it back to the room. Read less

I stayed at The Benjamin for a month when I came with a medical team to work at a hospital in NYC. This hotel exceeded my expectations - my room was perfect for an extended stay! I was happy to have a kitchen area and living space. It was very clean and all of the staff members that I encountered were extremely friendly and receptive to any requests. Despite it being difficult to leave my family behind for a month, it felt so nice to have such friendly people working there that greeted us in the morning when we left for work as well as when we returned many hours later. These workers made my experience so pleasurable even though we were there for difficult work!! Read less
