Lewis (young couple)

Guest Score 7.1 out of 10
Good
The staff were very kind and overall service we couldn’t fault. Also the daily allowance of Fiji water was a great detail/ addition to the stay! However, location was the best to get around and a perfect way to spend time in NYC.
Having stayed in other properties of a similar standard we were surprised to find there were no in room tea / coffee facilities that come as a standard. It’s very dated and dirty the rooms themselves. They definitely need a good scrub especially the curtains plus bathroom needs a serious makeover as it looked like it was falling apart! Otherwise for what it’s worth not much else to say.

view of Lincoln Center
construction around the area, had to circle the hotel a few times to find entrance. No big deal.

Poor
location next to the Met Opera
Because I faced a courtyard there were apartments right across from my only window. Unfortunately a lot of those apartments had their window shades and curtains up and could look right into my room--within about 15 feet from me. That meant I had to keep this huge, heavy, thick dark curtain pulled across my window at all times, making the room as dark as a tomb. Very little lighting in the room in the first place...with this curtain closed in a room that was already painted in dark grays and blacks it was not a pleasant experience. There was no coffee making kit provided and no coffee available in the lobby at any time. The refrigerator in my room didn't work properly. There was no information about the hotel anywhere in the room. There was no complimentary map of New York, no access to newspapers, nothing even remotely friendly or welcoming in the place. Not the Empire I remember from all my trips to NY to go to the Met

Always love staying at the Empire. This time just wasn’t up to par
This is my 6th time to stay here. Our A/C didn’t work, so when they came to turn it on, it had to constantly run or it would completely shut off again.

Hotel is right across the street from Lincoln Center, steps from Columbus Circle and Central Park and a short walk to Times Square and 5th Avenue shopping. The hotel staff is very attentive and helpful.
The rooms are a little tired and warm, the could use some updating and refreshing.

The room was big, the bed was very comfortable.
Just wish the breakfast was a bit more dazzling for the money you pay. This breakfast does not have a lot of healthy choices for kids or adults. The room was comfortable and clean as far as bed sheets and pillows, the furniture such as chair and bed stands were beat up a bit. I wish all hotels would stop using fabrics you cant wipe down after each guest. My room had a chair made out of some 1970 or 1980, (fake suede I think) and God knows you can't clean that after each use. Fake leather or simply fashionable wood or metal would be a lot more user friendly and most of all sanitary for all chairs and couches and bed stands. The shower pressure needs to be looked into. But the location to the Opera, Ballet, Symphony is par excellent.

Location was just across the street from Lincoln Center. The subway station was less than a block away. Many restaurants in the area. A Starbucks was located just around the corner from the entrance of the hotel. It was great for a small breakfast if you didn't want to pay the otherwise high prices for breakfast in the hotel . The room was small, but very clean.
Since the hotel is located on Columbus and Broadway, there is a lot street traffic noise which even the double glass windows and heavy shades could do little to subdue, but it is New York and that is to be expected.
