The hotel

Part of the very fabric of Midtown Manhattan, this Art Deco attraction is proudly capped with the red ‘New Yorker’ sign that’s made it a landmark in the city skyline. Inside its iconic 1929 shell, this Jazz Age hotel’s held on to its heritage with Art Deco inspired rooms, while moving with the times with complimentary WiFi. Its top location, just a block from Penn Station and Madison Square Garden, means you’re well placed for attractions like Macy’s, Times Square and the Empire State Building. And it doesn’t matter what time you finish exploring, its 24-hour Tick Tock Diner will give you a taste of New York with American comfort food classics like burgers and all-day breakfasts. If you fancy something a little more upmarket, the New Yorker’s Trattoria Bianca comes with an oyster bar.

Stay at this hotel only if this is the last option and you still want to be at a central location. Ancient property with third class amenties. Old property with Old Elevators. Its an Expensive accommodation for small rooms. Rooms Lacking basic amenities like tea, coffee maker and not even a small bottle of water adds to the inconvenience. The rooms, despite being small, come with a steep price tag. Additionally, the hotel imposes steep charges for services such as storing luggage by Concierge ($5 per bag) and late check-outs ($25 per hour). On a positive note, the staff's service is satisfactory. Read less

Reservations were for a room that was not advertised, and so small that we couldnt even prepare for the local convention, which is the one thing we came to do.

Reservations were for a room that was not advertised, and so small that we couldnt even prepare for the local convention, which is the one thing we came to do. The bathroom was dirty on arrival and attempting to sleep at night was a joke. You can clearly hear any noise from all of the adjacent rooms, and we might as well have been sleeping on the sidewalk for how clearly you could hear everything happening on the streets below. When approached the staff simply told us no other rooms were available and that was that. We left a day early just to get out of there and on checkout I was handed a bill for two nights, but my credit card was charged for the full three nights. This hotel is a scam. Read less

The New Yorker has a great history and amazing customer service. It has become our home in the city. The staff are helpful and warm. The building is well appointed and maintained. We stay for business and pleasure. It is an excellent choice in midtown, close to much that Manhattan has to offer and sits next to Penn Station for further travel.
