After staying at the Bryant Park on my last visit to NYC I had high hopes for this hotel. Don't believe the hype. First impressions are great, we were greated with a great doorman and as we walk in and the doors automatically woosh open you can't help but smile, however, the reception staff will soon wipe that smile of... more

Hi everyone! I'm traveling to NYC with a friend in the next few weeks and am very excited to stay at the Royalton Hotel. The deal I got offers a free upgrade upon check-in, do you all have any recommendations in terms of room size/ accommodation? Any additional details you can provide me in terms of the hotel would be... more

I stayed at the Royalton for four nights in late October. I found all of the staff very welcoming, pro-active, friendly and accommodating with the exception of one clearly bored employee. The concierge is extremely helpful. She not only recommended a great Broadway show, she managed to get an extra ticket at very late notice. She also found a town... more

Just returned from a 5 day trip to New York staying at the Royalton Hotel. Firstly the location of this hotel is fantastic a very short walk from the hub of Times Square, Broadway and 5th Avenue, brilliant. Like other reviewers however I found the dark and somewhat dingy interior of the hotel rather depressing and souless. A great place... more

Great location in Midtown Manhattan. Staff was friendly. We were wowed by the lobby ambiance. The experience was not so good once we made it to our room. Our Superior Double was beautiful (expected), small (somewhat expected), and completely impractical (not expected). There were no drawers for clothes. The bathroom lighting was dark enough that my daughter and wife had... more

We stayed for 5 nts in October and first impressions were good. The lobby is very dark but it does create a lovely atmosphere around the bar area. Our room was compact & on further inspection it appeared we had the smallest room on the top floor. However we didn't anticipate spending a lot of time there so it wasn't... more

As the other reviews say; location is great and probably the hotel's best asset. It's on the same street as the Sofitel and Algonquin so it's one of the best places to stay in the middle of Manhattan. 5th Avenue is on one side. Times Sq the other. If you like walking, it's a few blocks from everything of interest.... more

Location was good, rooms were a good size, very clean although a little sparse. The bathroom was luxurious and very modern. The lobby was dark at commented in other reviews but this didn't detract from the ambiance of the hotel. Saying that however, the prices at the lobby bar did which clearly put other customers off as it always appeared... more

I'v ebeen staying at this hotel since it opened and I'm biased because I like it. Having said that this is my first visit since the refurbishment so I thought it worth a review. First a general description. This is a hip happening boutique hotel in mid-town. It's not a stunning location for the new Tribeca, Chelsea, south Manhattan revival.... more
