Hands down best hotel in NYC from staff to rooms!
Most memorable hotel experience ever! We were upgraded to a spectacular room without asking, the staff was incredibly kind, it really exceeded every expectation. My tween girls will talk about this stay for years to come, you have no idea how special this was Fifty Sonesta, thank you!

Great place to stay in Turtle Bay Area.
Perfect location for my trip as my daughter lives in 2nd Avenue. 15 min walk to Central Park, Times Square, Rocafella, 5th Av.
Aircon could be improved but it did cool the room. Staff were fantastic.

Great Little Hotel
Randy on reception from minute we arrived set the bar for great service. Our first room sadly wasn’t great, we changed next day to larger one. Hotel could do with bit of spruce up but, it is great value and very clean, comfortable beds too. The hotel is in great location, lots of bars and restaurants close by and subway too. Only 10 minute walk to Fifth avenue and Rockefeller centre.

Staff were great, room tidied and towels changed when needed. Very welcoming, friendly and respectful. Only slight negative was room, although very comfortable and suitable for our break, room decor slightly tired and in need of upgrade, in our view, this was very minor and in no way impacted our break. Would stay again
