Shelter Island Whale's Tail

All-around wonderful stay; excellent location, very accommodating staff. Many thanks!

The hotel is old and room was small. That being said, it was very clean, the staff cordial and very helpful. The hotel is in an excellent location. Minutes away from Time Square and many coffee shops, restaurants and pubs. The price was hundreds of dollars less than others in the area. We were only looking for a one night stay before our cruise. We would definitely stay here again.

We stayed there with two small children, and it was fantastic. The room was very spacious, and the bed with the curtain served as a little fort for them. The building seemed designed as an office building, so the floor was solid (soundproof), and the ceiling was high. A fully equipped kitchen with a large fridge was perfect! They also have a huge laundry room and a decent gym. The laundry room has some games, so kids can enjoy that too, and having laundry on site is extremely helpful with children. The shower area was a bit tricky, but as long as your kids can shower, it's all good. Well-thought-out design. In addition to all of that, the staff were very nice and helpful. Thank you so much! Wall Street is a great location for kids — our kids particularly enjoyed the playground at Battery Park, a nice indoor playground near NYSE, ferries to see the Statue of Liberty, taking one subway stop to visit the Transit Museum, and the tour bus we could hop on from Trinity Church, etc. Anyway, we highly recommend this hotel 👍
