Location, cleanliness, and decor of hotel.
The room had an annoying air freshener fragrance, and the view from room was not pleasing.

I would recommend this hotel to my friends and family.

The large plush towels.
confusing light switches.

Upscale, really nice linens and towels, helpful and friendly staff, comfortable and reasonably sized rooms for New York.

Great Central Park South location and lobby; rooms felt luxe; nice decor.
Front desk needs more staff. Nobody in hotel had quarters! Confusing lights in bedroom.

Nice feel and smart decor at a great location on Central Park South.

Good location, comfortable rooms, friendly service, good beds, no bed bugs, park view, and classic property.
Small lobby, no self service example no ice unless one orders it, friendly but inadequate concierge.

Good quality control, friendly staff, lobby is too small and a portion dedicated to tea and other commerce (i.e guests asked to vacate the area even though no other lobby area was available to sit and wait - really poor taste given how hard they otherwise strive to serve. Excellent location. Accessible to theaters, shops, but offers the scenery and quite of the park area. At the right rates I would stay there again. Value in the $250 to $350 range. We paid about $650 for one night which was way overpriced. ...read more

Location.
Service.

I waited over 30 minutes for the hotel to get a cab, missed my restaurant reservation on Saturday night. I agree the city gets busy, but it's something the hotel can point out. They didn't and it kind of ruined a effect evening for me and my wife (we're newlyweds).

Location.
Had difficulty using my cell phone in my hotel room.

Great upscale, centrally located hotel. Near everything. Whenever I'm in New York City I stay at the Essex House(since 1994).

It is in a perfect location across from Central Park.
The housekeeping staff made a couple of errors and were not very friendly.

We thoroughly enjoyed the hotel and would consider it again for another visit to the city. The location is ideal - right across the street from Central Park.

The location was great and the staff were all very courteous and accommodating.
No ice machines available or at least we could not find and coming in late wanted to have a night cap and didn't know how to obtain ice.

This hotel is in a superb location on Central Park South. The staff was accommodating and try to meet your needs.
