So we checked into this hotel first going into the elevator which was the size of a small closet barely fiitting 2 people. We went up to our room where the floor stunk like an old indian kitchen, going into the room was a very small sized place with 2 twin beds. The bathroom was also size of a closet... More

I must preface this review by saying I did not stay at the hotel, but I did work with the staff. My experience dealing with Blake Augustus, manager of the hotel, was nothing short of amazing. I shipped a package to a guest at the hotel and there were issues with getting it delivered. Blake went far beyond the call... More

So, I booked a room here for two nights because everything that I read was positive. I was able to check in at 11 am after a long red eye flight from CA. Major plus. The desk attendant was cordial but far from warm. I think he aspires to work at the Ritz Carlton. The room had hard wood floors... More

Our family stayed at this hotel in January 2012 for a post-cruise vacation. It was conveniently located near the subway and lots of restaurants two blocks south. The rooms were tiny, but clean, flat screen TV, new bathroom. The parking was 3 blocks away and $32/night, so that was a negative. Located in a fairly nice part of the city... More

Do you think the days of excellent customer service have gone by and are forgotten? Not so at The Park 79. We have not yet arrived and the staff has gone out of their way to help us with our accomodations. The manager, Blake Augustus, helped us personally with a obstacle we encountered in our travel plans and our comfort... More

My husband and I spent 4 nights at the Park 79 just before Christmas. I booked this property based on a number of good Trip Advisor reviews as well as the price. Overall, the hotel is in a really good location - not far from the subway, Zabar's and the Natural History Museum and a couple of good restaurants around... More

Park 79 Hotel on West 79th Street on Manhattan's Upper West Side is a gem. Apparently an old mansion converted to a hotel, the prices are very reasonable for New York City. Stayed in a suite, so didn't have to share a washroom. Small, but for New York, big room. Flat screen TV in bedroom and living room (living room... More

This hotel is a perfect place to stay if you are low maintenance and on a tight budget. You can't ask for a better neighborhood than this to stay in (I'm partial- I used to live here). There are great restaurants and wine bars in the hood. Not the most party-area in NYC by any means but this hotel is... More

We have been staying at this hotel in our trips to NYC for over 4 years. The rooms are small, but I don't go to the City to hang out in a hotel room. They have always been clean and comfortable. They staff is friendly and willing to take care of your needs. It is located a half a block... More

This hotel was such a disappointment . My closet is bigger than the room. Took forever to get hot water for a shower and there was no way to regulate the heat. We faced 79th street and it was so noisy. Couldn't tell whether it was the noise of the heat coming up, the noise of traffic or the noise... More
