    I stayed here when I was in town to run the NYC Marathon. This was one of the nicer places that I've stayed at in Manhattan. I was able to get a unit while using my Wyndham Rewards points to cover the 3 night stay. It's located on 1st Ave, near the East River and just north of the United Nations Headquarters. The check-in process was quick and easy. After the necessary paperwork was done, I was given keys to the unit. I hopped on one of the three elevators. I believe the middle one only goes up to the Ophelia Lounge on the 26th floor which I did not visit during my short stay. The staff at the front desk was always very nice and friendly. Although my unit did come with a kitchen, there were plenty of dining options all within walking distance for those that don't want to cook while on vacation. I found everything in my unit to be clean and in good working condition. I was able to easily get to wherever I needed to go for the marathon. I wouldn't mind staying here again for any future visits to NYC.

    No hot water day...

    In the words of the front counter staff, "...stay somewhere else then!" One would think for the money one pays to stay here that one would be treated with at least a little courtesy and the place have some decent accommodations. The unit our family stayed in was decent and clean. The toilet seat cracked after simply lifting it up. We asked for more sheets and towels and were met with utter rudeness and "i don't even know where any of things are" and were told we need to ask before 5. The morning after we checked in, there was no hot water for the kids to take a shower. The free breakfast was pathetic (see photos). There's a reason why this place has a low rating. Be warned. It's sad we have to post a review like this but its what the Yelp community is all about. Helping other Yelpers...

    I like the Beekman tower hotel bar, its an art deco masterpiece. The bar is small and only seats four, and the small terraces are also small, but there are more tables indoors though too. Drinks are on the pricey side, and staff could be quite a bit more pleasant. Its a bit out of the way though, and unless you are staying at the hotel, there really isn't a whole lot of reason to seek this place out, so it remains a quiet little gem that doesn't get the bridge and tunnel crowd.

    This hotel was a great find! Located in Beekman Place. Very quiet hotel and neighborhood. I explored Sutton Place, walked along the East River and visited the United Nations. Lots of people walking their dogs and there are many grocery stores nearby. This is great because many rooms in this hotel like mine have kitchens. I ate a healthy breakfast in everyday and saved $$$. It's about a 15 minute walk to Rockefeller Center and 20 minutes to Times Square. The rooms were light and spacious, though not as clean as they ought to have been. There were various things left behind including used coffee grounds in the coffee pot. I booked through QuickBook and got a great deal... Probably because the United Nations was out of session. I stayed for 4 days and discovered on the last that 24 Hour Fitness (which I am a member) was only 3 blocks away in the CitiCorp Plaza. Nearest subway stop is also adjacent to that building. You can take that subway to and from JFK via AirTrain.

We stayed two…read moreyears ago, when our youngest was only three months old, and it was our first big trip as a family of 4. Friends thought we were a lil crazy for bringing two kids to Manhattan, but it ended up being such a special trip for us, and the Park Hyatt was a huge part of that. The hotel is beautiful, from the gorgeous floral arrangements throughout the property to the calm, elegant atmosphere. Our room was incredibly spacious, which felt like a true luxury in New York, especially with a stroller, luggage, SNOO and everything that comes with traveling with a newborn. Having that extra space made the entire trip feel easier. One of our favorite parts of the stay was the indoor pool. We took the boys swimming almost every night, and it became our little ritual. They loved it, and those evening swims are still some of my favorite memories from that trip. The location was perfect for a family stay. We walked to Central Park, FAO Schwarz, Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Center, Columbus Circle, and so many nearby restaurants, coffee shops, and stores. Being able to explore for a few hours, come back to the hotel to rest, and then head back out again made New York feel surprisingly easy. Now, two years later, our boys are older and we're planning another New York trip. I've been looking at hotels, but I keep coming back to the Park Hyatt because of how special that first stay was for our family. It would be pretty amazing to bring the boys back, let them swim in that pool again, and experience the hotel at a different stage of their childhood. The Park Hyatt will always have a special place in our family's New York memories.

I had booked the majority of my trip at another hotel, but I needed an extra night and used Marriott points for this stay. Overall, I thought it was a great place to stay. The location was very central, but it was not in the most crowded part of Times Square which I appreciated. It was a little hard to find at first because of nearby construction, but once I arrived, everything felt convenient and easy to access. The staff was relaxed, friendly, and helpful during check-in. I arrived around 1:00 PM, and my room was not ready yet, but once it was available, staff members were helping guests check in using the computers. The hotel has a very modern, tech-forward feel. The room included an iPad that controlled the lights, colors, and other settings, which gave the space a futuristic vibe. The room itself was very clean and felt pretty spacious for a New York hotel. The sheets and bathroom were clean, and I felt like I had everything I needed for a short stay. I also felt like it was a good value. I used about 58,000 Marriott Bonvoy points for the night, and New York hotels can easily run anywhere from about $200 to $500 per night depending on the date. Since I stayed on a weekday, that may have helped with the overall value. The next day, relocating to my other hotel was simple because the area was so central. As a Gold member, I also received late checkout, although I ended up leaving earlier than I needed to. The only thing that stood out was hearing another guest complain about the staff, which surprised me because my own experience had been very positive.

You enter on the first floor, but the lobby is on the sixth floor. I was having flashbacks to Tokyo... There are four elevators, and when I checked in, the place was packed.

It didn't help that everyone had to take an elevator just to reach the lobby, then another to get to their room. Fortunately, I was only on the ninth floor...so I got my steps in. The room itself was mostly ok. One thing I really didn't like was the air conditioning. It wouldn't cool below 68 degrees. I despise hotels that throttle the A/C. I'd get warm, the air would finally kick on, I'd be comfortable for about ten minutes...then the cycle would repeat all night. Another thing that caught me off guard was the ceiling. Maybe they're going for an industrial look, but it was basically unfinished concrete. Other than those complaints, everything else in the room was perfectly acceptable, and for a one night stay, it did the job.
