8.2/10

My stay at the hotel was simply amazing. The rooms were not only expansive but also well-appointed, offering a to die for view of Central Park, even in January. The location, right on the edge of Central Park, provided stunning scenery from my room. The service was top-notch with extremely helpful staff who suggested great places to eat and explore. However, the dining experience was a bit lackluster, with overpriced and mediocre options.

I was booked under my boyfriend's name, and the room was absolutely gorgeous. It was big enough and the location on the edge of Central Park was perfect for enjoying the beautiful scenery from the room.

Service

9.0

The service was exceptional, with attentive and friendly staff who were completely focused on providing the best experience. Even simple exchanges in the elevator felt warm and welcoming.

Location

10.0

The location was sensational, within walking distance to shopping, the park, and all major tourist spots. Just across Central Park and adjacent to some excellent restaurants, it truly offered a fantastic setting.

Dining

5.0

Although the food was good, it was extremely expensive. Paying $95 for orange juice and a bagel with salmon, including tax and gratuity, was quite steep for what was offered.

Facilities

8.0

The facilities were great overall, from room service to valet parking. However, the dining prices were on the higher side, making it less appealing in terms of value for money.

The service here is outstanding, probably the best I've experienced. The location couldn't be better, right on the edge of Central Park. However, the dining experience was a bit mixed, with some hits and misses.
