Older hotel with all the amenities. Large room for NY. Breakfast is continental and adequate. Very convenient location. Close to subway and easy walking distance to attractions. Accommodating reception staff. An enjoyable stay. Would recommend

Just spent a week in New York and stayed at the Blakely . Ideal spot as based in Mid Town and handy for most "attractions". Room big enough and clean enough , breakfast included in the deal and set you up for the day.Italian restaraunt attached to the hotel where we dined on 2 occasions in the evening and had... More

Stayed at the Blakely recently for 9 nights to celebrate our 10th Wedding Anniversary. We had e-mailed the hotel prior to leaving the UK in relation to transport from JFK to the hotel. The concierge promptly replied with the best mode of transport and prices. We opted for the private car and were met by the driver at the gate... More

We stayed at the Blakely for 8 nights at the end of April/beginning of May. I wasn't certain that this hotel was the best choice for us, but I was proved wrong. The downstairs lobby, though small, was charming, and we loved the library motif throughout the hotel. We even had shelves of hardback books in our room. We were... More

This was our second trip to the Blakely, having stayed there 12 months ago on the recommendation of New zealand friends. It did not disappoint.

This is now the 6th hotel in New York we have stayed in and rate it as the best. It is small - there was only 8 rooms on our floor - and may not have all the facilities of large hotels but what it offers is first class. We had a 1 bedroom suite - the bedroom was large... More

This hotel is a gem. Perfect location, spacious rooms, exceptionally comfortable beds and very helpful staff. Their attention to detail was second to none. We travelled to 3 other hotels in different states and were disappointed given how high the standard had been set by the Blakely.Highly recommend this hotel.

The hotel is pristine. It is clean and very, very classy. The location cannot be beat. Blocks from Central Park, Times Square, Rockefeller Center, the subway is at the corner, and numerous restaurants are all over the place. The staff is super helpful and proactive about making sure you have the best possible stay and that you get everything out... More

We recently spent a week in Manhattan to explore the city. Our seven year old chose NYC as her preferred destination and wanted to see all of the sites. I read many reviews online and wanted a hotel that offered a little more space for our family of three plus my mother. One standard hotel room would not be enough... More
