Checked into this hotel and didnt expect much for the price. But worse than expected! First room given was on the 2nd foor. Pokey awkward sized room. Horrible smell of cooking from the deli's downstairs. Asked to changed and was given the choice of 8th floor facing the noisy street, or 11th floor facing the opposite wall Opted for this... more

So to keep things less obvious I was going to NYC to propose to my Now Fiance. We got a group of 4 to go. We needed something cheap and didn't really mind if it wasn't the Rolls Royce of hotels. The hotel is extremely clean, and service is wonderfull. We got a good rate a few months in advance... more

We stayed at the Hotel St James in New York. (meant to write this review when we got back) from my 50th birthday celebration. The hotel and rooms are not fancy, there is no "contiental breakfast" but there was a Starbucks across the street and a Deli and Irish Pub/restuarant next door. It's very very close to Times Square and... more

My husband and I went to NYC for the first time to celebrate our 20th anniversary. We wanted to spend more money on the broadway shows and attractions and less on our hotel if it was possible. I read many reviews on Hotel St. James. The patrons gave it good reviews about location and reasonable rates so we went with... more

Negative. 1) Outside generators very noisy during night . We initially changed rooms due to the droning noise however our new room was also noisy.(A bit picky I know but if... more

I switched hotels after one night at Hotel St. James. If the rest of the hotel matched the reception and welcome I received at the Front Desk, I would've stayed the duration of my reservation, but even my cost-saving nature couldn't get comfortable with the poor level of cleanliness in my second floor room. The rooms are shabby and just... more

Hi People I stayed here with my wife and 14yr old son for 4 nights, I read all the reviews before we went and I have to rate the hotel highly based on our experience. We were treated like respectable visitors from day 1. The staff answered any questions we had and throughout our stay were fabulous, at no time... more

Went to New York City from Nova Scotia, with 3 girl friends for 1 week, we stayed at St James Hotel and loved it. It was very small, 2 double beds, no dresser, only had a closet with 4 hangers, but for us country girls it was just great, we lived out of our siutcases, our room looked like a... more

Good location two minutes from Times Square - basic - no frills rooms - one overlooked some offices - we could wave to each other and another overlooked the street with a botched repair to the glass so a lot of street noise. It was a real shock when we got there - like walking back in time but once... more
