    Great location! Just a few blocks from the theatres on the upper side of Times Square and a few blocks from Central Park. Several good restaurants nearby. Free breakfast. Excellent staff. Rooms were very well appointed and spacious enough. Immaculately clean. Free breakfast was nice but there was also an evening wine reception included. Luggage could be stored during the day. Really great shower. Fridge in room. Easy access to subway. I probably can’t afford to stay there again but sure would like to.

    At breakfast on May 28, I took one bite of a packaged bagel and discovered it had mold. I then checked the expiration date printed on the plastic bag, and it appeared to be expired. I shared this only as helpful feedback for quality control. Overall, we appreciated the care we received and would be happy to return in the future.

    I stayed here with my young daughter so we could explore Central Park for a couple days. We only stayed one night but it was very clean and very close to Central Park. We rented bikes right downstairs at Fancy Apple and it was convenient. The staff at the hotel were so helpful and professional. The snacks, water and coffee station and the afternoon wine and cheese were very useful as I was traveling with a child and food and drinks are so pricey in the city. There were to go boxes at the breakfast station so we packed up some breakfast items and picnicked at the park. When we checked out we were able to leave our bags with the hotel while we went to the MoMA which is only a few blocks away. When we returned we were able to use the hotel's guest bathroom and lounge area to rest for a few minutes before we headed back to the train station. We were very happy with the hotel and it's location. The only cons were the view (we looked out at scaffolding so pay extra for a view if it's important to you) and the mini fridge didn't really stay cool. We'll stay here again on future Central Park trips for sure!

    We were put in “the only room they had” and it was terrible. Sliding doors which couldn’t be opened anyway, faced an enclosed wooden deck and roof. No daylight coming in from any direction. Ridiculous. Nothing like this was disclosed at the front desk. Teeny tiny sitting area for continental breakfast, and also dark.

    Great location, clean rooms and helpful staff. Rooms are very small, slightly larger than a cruise ship cabin, but it is New York. The bathrooms are also very tiny and tight. The bathrooms also have opaque glass on the sliding door that opens right onto the King Bed, which woke my wife up when I would get up to run in the morning. I would stay here again and the location is excellent but would opt for a little larger room with a larger bathroom offset from the room itself. It was very central to Carnegie Hall, Central Park, the Theatre District and Times Square.

    It was my first time to NYC. I felt warmly welcomed by the professional staff who struck the right balance of efficiency and friendliness. The room was perfectly designed. Everything was easy. The breakfast was varied and included a very tasty omelette. The evening wine hour was welcome respite and I enjoyed a fine Malbec (it tasted Chilean but I forgot to ask). Proximity to Carnegie Hall was the initial attraction for me, but this charming hotel stands on its own merits. I look forward to staying at Carnegie Hotel again.

    This place is top notch. Everything is well maintained. The rooms are a little small but that’s par for the course in NYC. The elevators were fast, the staff was very friendly and the breakfast was good. The only trade off was having a very quiet room facing the back with no view or facing the street with more street noise. It’s just personal preference. The location is perfect — close enough to walk to the theater district and Central Park.

    We had a lovely stay at the Carnegie Hotel. The hotel is perfectly located to explore the city. The rooms are clean and spacious for NYC. However the stand-out is the staff friendliness and the little touches that make such a difference to a stay. Wine and cheese hour in the evenings is so wonderful. We met other guests and enjoyed some treats before gathering our remaining energy to explore evenings in New York. The hot chocolate bar was a wonderful festive touch. Thanks so much to Yolanda, Alessandra, Delia and more for making our stay so fantastic!

    The location is great and accessible to everything. I went during Christmas time and for a solo traveller this is great because my room was very small. The happy hour each night is decent but the wine is not have great quality, but nonetheless it was nice. Their eating area is very small and crowded but they are doing the best they can. Beware of the gym access. Online they make it sound like it is complementary but it is not. It is off premises, which is fine but they did not tell me so that was disappointing. In each room there is a cool refrigerator and that was very helpful. At breakfast, they have an egg dish that is hot but the quality is not that good. Their yoghurts are good and they have way too many danishes and carbs. Their coffee is decent but not great. The hotel is close to all of the subways and very safe to walk around.

    This is NOT a luxury hotel, nor does it charge luxury hotel rates. But the STAFF is FABULOUS and the facilities perfectly adequate, if not bette rthan that. They say you get what you pay for, but the staff were a pleasant surprise. I came down to the lobby for two complimentary glasses of wine (a nice malbec, by the way) and light snacks, and as I struggled to get them back to the room the attendant brought me a tray, then accompanied me to and called the elevator, then reached in and pressed my floor. Front desk staff were equally welcoming, inquiring (based on a correct surmise) how we'd enjoyed the show as we returned at about the right time for that surmise. Everything was clean and comfortable. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

    Both rooms were excellent. I changed rooms on the last night due to the Expedia site error regarding the category and availability of the Superior Double room I originally requested. As soon as the room I booked on the Expedia site was actually available they were able to accommodate me. Would have liked to have had that room the entire visit, oh well. The rooms themselves super clean, the mattresses, bedding pristine. The bath and fixtures modern, impeccable. Additionally, the staff excellent, the free breakfast generous and nutritious, sustaining for the better part of the day hiking Manhattan. No shortcomings, nothing to apologize for, the Carnegie Hotel was perfect, I could not have been more pleased.

    Our rooms mini fridge and AC wasn’t working, we eventually got moved to another room which was good. The shower floor felt greasy like it hadn’t been cleaned well but it looked fine. They keep the hallways pretty hot upstairs but it’s such a short walk it isn’t too bad. Overall not bad, I would stay again as so many other hotels in NYC have issues with bed bugs. However, it’s definitely pricey, which is not reflected in luxury, but location.

    Great location! Staff was pleasant. Room was clean. Free lattes/espresso, not just the basic drip coffe you get at most places. Room was very small. My air conditioner did not work. Room was very warm, like 75-80 all night l which made sleeping more difficult.

    I really don’t recommend staying here. The rooms are much smaller than you’d expect, but the biggest issue is the hidden facility fee—$29 per night. Supposedly, it covers “food,” but in reality, it’s just chips and poor-quality coffee. To make matters worse, the management was unhelpful. A friend I was traveling with couldn’t eat the snacks because of health concerns (high cholesterol), and there were no real alternatives offered. The vibe overall felt cheap and poorly managed. You end up paying extra for almost nothing. Definitely not worth it.

    Location and service is excellent. The rooms are solid +, my complaint is the elevators make a lot of noise at all hours of the day and night. To me it sounded like someone was banging on the pipes intermittently all day. When I complained I was told they were sold out and that I was “noise sensitive”. Idk, maybe I am, but I’ve stayed at hundreds of hotels around the world and never had this issue before.

    Our stay was ok. Only stayed one night and not there during the days so I cannot really give a full review. The bedrooms are small, not much space for the price. The rooms were clean. Dining area for continental breakfast is small as well. Continental breakfast was average. They did offer snacks throughout the day and wine and cheese in the evenings for those who like that. Location was good,

Snacks, and coffee maker 24 hours. Ice machine, and filtered cold water also, so bring your water bottle. Front door is across the street from the performer entrance of Carnegie Hall. You might miss the entrance if you blink though.

    This hotel for me was perfect - one of the most important things for me at a hotel is that the climate control is good. I like a very cool room at night and i was able to control the air and it was great and it worked. I liked that there was a breakfast to get me out the door each morning and not look around or need to go find a breakfast when I was walking 8-10 miles to begin with. and the happy hour was convenient to grab a snack after a long day and before a long night out.

My husband thought the breakfast was really good for an included continental, he loved the omelettes. It was also nice always having coffee, tea, juice and snacks in the lobby. We would definitely stay here again for a Broadway show or another opera. I’d highly recommend here!

It's not fancy, but the fact that they don't try make $30 extra on me from breakfast and/or a mini bar is really nice. Only slight downside was outside noise even though they have soundproof windows (I think). It's hard to avoid in NYC if your rooms is facing the street. But I'd come back any time.

    Five-day, four-night NY trip to visit museums. The room, though unexpectedly very small, was clean and up-to-date. Excellent bathroom and shower, Elderly guests would benefit from a higher sitting toilet. Queen bed was comfortable with good pillows, mini-fridge did not work. Maid service was good and unobtrusive. The free breakfast was very good; no need to buy breakfast out. Late afternoon free wine and snack offerings very good, also.The room was very quiet from outside noise, but was offset by elevator noise.This is my only big complaint. Got use to it after one day and used earplugs while sleeping, but usually quiet between 9:30pm to 7:00 am. All staff were very helpful and pleasant. Subway and bus access literally around the corner.
