Whenever I travel to New York, I always stay at the Roger Smith Hotel. It's in a great location and their staff really care about their guests. They are so friendly and make sure that everything is taken care of. Extremely helpful with any request. I love hearing the front desk staff welcoming guests in multiple languages. That's a true sign of hospitality! If I need to meet people, I always invite them to meet... more

We stayed at Rm 911. It's a two bedroom suite with fireplace in the living room. Another TV in the, dining room. Marble bathroom.-- It gives you the feeling of being home away from home. Located in the city which is very convenient to go shopping. The staffs are extremely courteous and friendly. Honest housekeeping - I noticed my bracelet was gone while window shopping. Not sure where I lost it. But when I got... more

Based on the reviews I had read and a recommendation from a friend - we had expected an older, but clean and roomy hotel room. Indeed the rooms must all be different, and we were not given a very good suite. We occupied a one Bedroom suite for 4 nights. The living room was quite large; the bedroom not bad, but the bathroom was very small, no counter space on the sink at all for... more

I stayed here with my 8-year-old while visiting family. The room was much larger and cheaper than other NYC hotels in which we have stayed. It's old in an elegant way. There is room to move around, and everything is in its place. My son kept talking about the soft bed for the rest of our trip. He didn't want to leave, and he complained when we had to switch hotels later in the week.... more

It’s more than location, location, location (mid-town, east-side New York). The Roger Smith also has a reliable, warm-hearted, responsive, professional staff. We tested its sports bar and were pleased by the appetizers (including smoked fish) and entrée (wild mushroom risotto) and dessert (apple tart á la mode and brownies á la mode, perfect for splitting and sharing). We also tested its restaurant at breakfast and were pleased with the extra touches of raisins and brown... more

This hotel has a real homely feel, all the rooms seem to be decorated differently, they're all unique and very comfortable. The beds are really comfy. The staff are really friendly and helpful, we had breakfast each day at Lily's - this was really good and again the staff are really accomodating, very nice food. We also took part in a 4 mile run in central park that the hotel sends a team to take... more

RS is a charming midtown hotel with unique accents that make each room unique. Rooms are clean, comfortable and surprisingly spacious. The staff was friendly and attentive without overwhelming. An excellent value. Breakfast was pricey, but there are good alternatives within a short walk. more

The Roger Smith hotel takes pride in it’s service. From the point you check in to the moment you leave they always make you feel welcome. The room I stayed in was like no other Hotel room I had ever been in. As someone who really dislikes the city, escaping to my room was a real treat. The room had a wonderful big comfy bed and a really homey feel more reticent of a Bed... more

I had the pleasure of staying at The Roger Smith Hotel in mid-town Manhattan this week, and it truly felt like it was home away from home, albeit with a better bar! I was traveling for business and found the location to be very convenient to all of the locations I had to visit. The welcome was warm, my room was large and very clean, and the food was wonderful, both in the full-service restaurant,... more

I was the winning bidder on two nights at this hotel at a charity auction and knew that at some point, I'd be in need of staying over for buisness in NYC. With a dinner and holiday party back to back, this was a perfect spot to be in. Walked to work in the morning and back after the evening functions. Although the "sounds of NY" are about you, I had no trouble falling asleep... more
