I stayed at the Benjamin for a night in January for business. Picked up a room for $125 via Priceline and was upgraded to a suite. Clean, comfortable and quiet. Great location - on a subway stop, near good restaurants, java, etc. I highly recommend this hotel. More

The location of this hotel is fantastic as it is only about three blocks or so from 5th ave; however, the room decor is not really all that. We had a one bedroom suite with a terrace which was very nice and spacious. However, the hotel could be updated as far as decor and furnishings. Other than that, it was... More

Just stayed at The Benjamin for the first time and would absolutely do so again. I really enjoyed my stay. I wasn't certain what to expect, but found the hotel to be very nice, comfortable and in a great location. While I walked or took cabs everywhere, there is a subway stop very near the hotel at 51st and Lexington... More

Our stay at The Benjamin was perfect. You want to deal with William Delgado if possible. He was exceedingly accomodating and kind. The room was spectacular. The beds were comfortable. The location can't be beat. We had an absolutely great time staying at The Benjamin. Great restaurant downstairs and nice little deli around the corner. You can't beat this hotel... More

My wife and I went to NYC with our nine month old baby boy to visit friends and see the city at Christmas time. Our room was great, clean, good size, with a comfortable bed. The Benjamin is in a great location near many must see landmarks. We really enjoyed our stay and will stay here again. More

The Suite was great! We loved have a kitchenette and a bedroom and a livingroom. Gave us all great privacy. The doormen helped us with tips of where to find what close by. The view of Lexington Avenue was great from our suite!!!!! More
