We travel regulary to New York and used to rent an apartment. Unfortunately this is not possible anymore due to new legal rules. We therefore chose the Empire Hotel as the rooms looked nice and it was located central close to Central Park. But we was very disappointed. The room was very small and dark - we got a "view"...

I stayed here 2.13 - 2.14. The lobby was very nice and almost had a 'speak-easy' feel to it, which is a very different theme compared to most hotels. It was too cold for the Rooftop bar so unfortunately I didn't get the chance to check it out. The room was nice, but very, very small. Great TV and plenty... More

As I was reading I came upon a great deal that was 130.00 less than I paid through the hotel website. I called the hotel to discuss this and suggested... More

What more could you want with a NYC hotel? This hotel is clean,comfortable and charming! The location is great-right opposite the Lincoln centre and subway with a starbucks on the corner (well there is a starbucks on every corner). Room was cleaned every day and didn't have a problem with the noise at all. The bathroom was adequate and spotless... More
