Hotel Giraffe by Library Hotel Collection

Manhattan

10/10 Excellent

This is an excellent, well run boutique hotel in a great area of NYC....but the overwhelming win here is the staff who cannot do enough to help - Gabby at the front desk and Gabriella at breakfast are amazing as are all the staff. This is how you do service - great job !! Rooms are typical NYC size, clean and well kept with all the essentials. Bed is super comfy (particularly for my old back) We will definitely be back.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. A special mention goes to James, the manager, who was incredibly helpful, thoughtful, and made us feel very welcome throughout our stay. The hotel is also in a great location for Times Square, making it easy to explore the city and all the main attractions. It was also great to be able to help ourselves to coffee and snacks throughout the day, which was a lovely touch and much appreciated. Breakfast did get quite busy around 9:00 am, and the food options...

A table with a bottle of champagne, two glasses, and a menu on a balcony overlooking a cityscape with tall buildings and a flag.

The Peninsula New York

Manhattan

10/10 Excellent

Returned to the Peninsula after a few years' hiatus (I had an issue last time). It is an excellent place to stay if you want to be in upper Midtown. The prices can be quite punchy, but the restaurant and bar are not as mind-boggling as some, and you are getting a top notch product. The staff were friendly and helpful, and in the main not as overbearingly stuffy or as synthetically gushing as you sometimes find in similar hotels. It has a great location (5th/55th) so very handy for MoMA,...

William

A spacious living room with a large window offering a city view, a comfortable sofa, a coffee table, and a side table with a lamp.

The Carlyle, A Rosewood Hotel
