New Yorker by Lotte Hotels

I had a wonderful stay at The New Yorker Hotel. The room was comfortable and impeccably maintained, providing a perfect retreat after a busy day exploring the city. What truly stood out was the hotel’s prime location just steps away from major attractions, excellent dining options, and convenient transportation. Overall, I was highly satisfied with my experience and would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.

Fabulous central location. Close to downtown Manhattan with good subway connections. Lobby area and reception very 1920s, with iconic art deco chandeliers and decor. Very comfortable pillows and beds. Friendly staff in Trattoria Bianca restaurant with tasty food and good selection of dishes. Fridge in room was a good size and useful for chilling drinks etc. Constant hot water and powerful shower. Business centre was useful for printing off boarding passes etc.and open 24-7.

Great hotel in a perfect location with helpful staff. However being charged $5 per bag to store luggage before check in and after checkout is an effrontery. The price of hotels in New York is expensive enough that this should not be included as a separate item.

Our room was very large and spacious with fantastic views of The Edge and the Hudson River, it was kept clean and tidy by the housekeeping team throughout our stay with plenty of fresh towels. The front office team are exceptional, with special mentions to Samira and Carlotta who were very helpful. The location is perfect with easy access to & from JFK via the LIRR (Penn Station is over the road) and air train, very cheap & easy to use and navigate even with luggage and a child in tow, and lots of food options in the immediate vicinity if you want to grab & go. All of the big attractions are nearby (walkable), and just head either immediately east or west on 34th St to the ferry ports for direct, easy access to Dumbo (east) and Battery Park City (west). The TickTock diner is great - quick service and nice food, handy for filling up before a day out exploring the city. The hotel is iconic, art deco and beautiful, truly quintessential New York, and no it's not modern, but it was the perfect base for our stay. Clean, comfortable, family friendly, safe, great location.

New Yorker is basically hands down the best place in NYC for value for money and location for Midtown Midtown Manhattan. Nowhere else comes close in terms of price and location (without it being a dodgy hostel/hotel). It is not the place for you if you want luxury and to be spending loads of time relaxing at the hotel. It is clean / safe / its an iconic hotel. It does the job if you need a place to rest your head because you know you will be spending your time out exploring NYC. I have stayed there 4 times now.
