Carnegie Hotel

The hotel is perfect for what it is - an affordable, clean place in the heart of the action. The room was a bit small, so I don't know if I could stay there more than a couple of days or stay there as a couple. Maybe select a larger room if you have two people. It was perfect for business travel.

If you are looking for a quiet, out-of-the-way hotel in the chaos of NYC, but still want to be in a good location then this is the place. It's small so there's no hustle and bustle in the hotel itself. It's 1 1/2 blocks off Central Park. 1 block from the subway. The staff was fantastic. The rooms are small, but clean and comfortable. Perfect for a place to crash after a long day in NYC. My only knocks on the hotel during our stay were that the HVAC was acting up a little bit, but not enough to ruin our stay. And that the breakfast/snacks/drinks provided - as part of a $28/day mandatory add-on - left a WHOLE LOT to be desired. Machine coffees and drinks and substandard continental breakfasts were disappointing. Coffee setups in the rooms would have been much better. Having said that, I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. I'd rather have a NY deli breakfast anyway!

The hotel was wonderful; clean, Comfortable and cozy. The bed especially was comfortable. The staff was sncerely friendly and helpful. The person hosting The evening reception (wine and.cheese) was a delight and made us feel so welcomed and appreciated. Very quiet hotel and practical with good shower. Hotel lacks good views, and room is cramped..but nicely designed so you don t feel it. I d stay here again. Continental breakfast is more American than continental ( fresh bagels, eng muffins, toast) good coffees, teas and yoghurt and fruit. Somehow i kept wishing for s hard cooked egg and some cold cuts alomg with improved pastries. Yet it was sufficient. The evening wine and cheese offering and its host made up for it...and the choc chip cookies.

Yes, the rooms are smaller, but no one comes to NYC for the room! The hotel was super clean and comfortable, and super quiet. The staff goes out of their way to assist you. Our room was ready early, allowing us to drop our bags, freshen up, and go out to enjoy the city. There is easy access to the subway, right around the corner, Central Park is just steps away. The breakfast, coffee always at the ready, wine and cheese, were all fantastic for a quick break. The breakfast area is clean and the staff super friendly. We will absolutely be back!

Although the bathroom was super clean, the room carpet was very dirty (sticky on bare feet)... the staff was lovely however, location superb, wine hour with nibbles was a bonus....
