Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I just completed an overnight stay at the MVC Pulse NYC and had a pleasant experience. The hotel is located in an excellent location, steps from Broadway, cafes, bars, restaurants, and shops. The room was cozy with modern amenities. Highly recommended!

"This is my new go-to stay in New York. The hotel staff at this location is bringing customer service back. We had a lovely time at this ideal location in the heart of Midtown New York City, despite it being the coldest weekend in January. The entire team was very gracious and accommodating, making our stay completely amazing. I want to give a shoutout to the whole team, including Jhon, William, Carlos, Nikita, Michela, Sharif, Nicolas, and my favorite, Carter. I could go on and on, but I'll do one better. We will be back next year and will definitely stay at your hotel again. I can't wait to see all my new friends in January 2025. See you soon, friends!"

Great stay in good location - perfect for a short Christmas shopping break. Cute and cosy hotel with some lovely complimentary touches that are unique to NY, such as the daily guided walking tours around different areas (Greenwich, Financial, Chinatown, Central Park areas, etc) as well as the daily “tastes of NY” offering free slices of pizza (from Joe’s), hot chocolate (from Angelina’s) or cheesecake (from Junior’s). Friendly reception staff, concierge and door staff. The rooms are compact, but clean, with a good hot shower. The highlight is the rooftop bar with stunning view of the Empire State Building day or night! This hotel is missing the guest laundry that is present in other Pulse locations (SF and San Diego), but local laundry cleaning was recommended by staff - charged by weight, washed and folded within a few hours. All in all a great place for a short stay!

Thank you for sharing your delightful experience! It sounds like you had a fantastic stay at our hotel, enjoying the perfect location for a Christmas shopping break. We're thrilled to hear you appreciated the cute and cozy atmosphere, along with the unique complimentary touches like daily guided walking tours and the "tastes of NY" offerings. We're glad our staff, from reception to concierge and door staff, made your stay friendly and welcoming. While the rooms are compact, we're pleased they were clean, and the hot shower added to your comfort. The rooftop bar with its stunning view of the Empire State Building seems to have left a lasting impression. We apologize for the absence of a guest laundry, but it's great to know our staff assisted with local laundry recommendations. Thank you for choosing us for your short stay—we look forward to welcoming you back!

Great location, just next to Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade route which we managed to catch the tail end of. Friendly staff. Rooms were smaller than what the pictures suggest. Major drawback was no laundry facilities. Ice Machine is on Lower Level rather than on the same floor. Walls not very soundproof and we had noisy screaming kids in the next room who were very loud. Thank goodness they quietened down when it got late.

Beware of the sales pitch at this place. They will try hard to get you in their vacation club ownership. Once you bought it, they would not respond to your email and concerns. The sales manager, Chet, promised me 0% interest with credit card but I'm still being charged. When I raised this issue with the Sales person, Esther, she assured me after I complete signing all the documents, it will automatically take care of it. However, that's not the case. Both Esther and Chet have gone MIA. Chet used his referral/invite for this credit card. I'm sure he gets a lot of points/rewards from this scam. I've emailed them and called them, left voicemails. No response. I feel this is a scam and they do whatever it takes to convince you to buy in.

This place is amazing! What makes it so good? The staff, location, amenities. I am not going to mention names because I didn't catch them all, but everyone ... desk, bell men, tour guides. They were all very nice and professional. They offer free guided tours daily!! Smiles are Free! We will be back.

If your looking for NYC hotel with tiny rooms, few amenities, uncomfortable beds and unfriendly staff, this is the place for you! The rooms are so small that sitting room is limited to one person. Unlike other Marriott locations in NYC or vacation clubs in metro areas, there are no restaurants in the facility nor kitchenettes in the rooms. In fact, there isn't even a microwave! Each day for three days we asked the front desk for bottled water and was told they ran out. We were instead directed to the vending machine to buy bottled water. Our disappointment was shared with the front desk personnel who couldn't be bothered and turned a deaf ear. Even more frustrating, they couldn't even look me in the eye. What does that tell you... My advice is to use Bonvoy hotel points rather than vacation club points when visiting NYC. Marriott, you can do much better than this in the city that never sleeps!

We stayed three days at this hotel. We live in NJ and never did tourist in NYC. Because of this visit we will be coming back. We were greeted warmly as soon as we were at the front door. Check in was easy and the concierge crew was exceptional. We were put in an upper floor with a street view, right across from the Empire State Building. Prior we were called by Carlos to go over our reservation. He put us on an upper floor and asked if we were there for an event. We indicated the we had an anniversary. We found a bottle of wine and a tin of chocolates with a Happy Anniversary note. The hotel is located close enough to the action but far enough away from the noise. We got good tips about Broadway and got to see “Hamilton”. The give various free waking tours. We took the 9/11 tour with Hector which was fabulous. We traveled Downtown by subway. It’s a small thing, but we got instruction how to navigate the city by subway. It made travel, on our own, the next day, to The Met, very easy. The hotel has a sky lighted rooftop bar where we got a nightcap. All and all it was a very good experience and we will come back. Living in NJ, we took the train to Penn Station and a short walk to the hotel. We found that being “tourists” in NYC fun and easy at this hotel.

We stayed 3 nights at this lovely hotel!!! Check in was easy however the front staff weren't the friendliest. However we quickly forgot about that once we met Hector and Jocelyn ( tour guides). They were both absolutely fabulous!!!! We did tours with both of those beautiful people. They are both so knowledgeable, friendly and great sense of humour!!!! I can't write this review without mentioning Mark... such an awesome and friendly guy.. He met us once and did not forget our names!! Security guy at front( forget name) who was working many hours bc had to cover for another worker always had a smile and quite friendly. Bell boy who greeted us coming and going was also helpful. The hotel offered wine pairing, sandwich and wine sampling, free tours and much more which impressed us. Our room was quite clean with all amenities one may need! The only downside was an elevator out of service the entire 3 days and the last night we were there both of them were out.
