Top Hotels Near Juilliard School in New York from NZ$335

"There was 1 elevator working for 15 floors. Undisclosed madatory "resort" and "food and beverage fees" that we were not expecting. No wifi. Staff at hotel seemed to think we should be grateful to them for the privilege of staying there. This was a Best Western disguised as a high end hotel."

"The elevator situation was so inconvenient. They kept glitching and sending everyone to the wrong floors, and one of the elevators didn't work the whole time! Also did not tell us that there was construction occurring on the property, definitely overpriced for what it was, they didn't even give us water. Our room also was not properly cleaned, we found someone's glasses in our room. Do not stay here!!!"

"We have stayed many times and can see how the hotel has gotten a bit rough at the edges. Wall mirror had a broken corner, bathroom door wouldn’t close and the a/c was subpar. Your location is great but we are thinking about staying elsewhere, especially because of the A/c. Room 1103 "

"Room was very comfortable and clean and quiet and staff were great!"

"Stayed at the New Yorker Hotel and it was honestly not worth the price. The hallways are outdated and the “city view” room we were given was basically a corner wall with barely any view of MSG. You’re mainly paying for the location in the heart of NYC. What really ruined the experience was how we were treated regarding their smoking policy. I asked a worker if there was any balcony or smoking area available and was told no, to just smoke outside. Cool, no problem. The next morning at 9AM security knocked on our door claiming they smelled marijuana. We told them they had the wrong room. The security guard even explained that if someone was actually smoking in a room, their desk would get notified by the smoke detector system. He made it sound like they were generally searching for who was smoking — not that our room specifically triggered anything. Then the very next day we received a letter saying we were being charged a smoking fee anyway. I even tested the so-called “smoke detector” afterward and it clearly was not functioning, which makes the whole situation feel questionable and discriminatory. Overall, definitely not worth what they charge. Location is the only real positive."

"Greta location"

"The room was EXTREMELY small and definitely could not fit 4 adults like advertised. No closet for clothing, no luggage racks We lived out of our suitcases and had to stack them on the only seat other than the beds. No room to walk past each other without squeezing through. No in room coffee maker, ice bucket etc. "

"My room was on the first floor. Directly outside my window, looking out onto a small airshaft, was a collection of HVAC turbines constantly roaring. Like, mere feet away. I instantly asked to be moved, but the hotel was full. Was up til 4am the first night, got earplugs for the second night. Seriously, this should not be a hotel room at all, let alone in a supposed four star hotel. It should be an office or storage. And the staff were stone faced. Yes the hotel was full but there are still things you can do--a comped cocktail or discount in the restaurant, a reduced fee, anything to acknowledge that this was a ludicrous room to be paying 800 dollars for two nights in. The room itself was bare and bleak--and of course there was no sunlight at all, just that airshaft and the roar of the turbines. Left feeling totally snookered."

"Held over $1,100 in four random charges despite having a prepaid reservation. No staff could explain why their “new system” would do this. Charged $69 for an early check in (fine) but the room was a SIGNIFICANT downgrade from what I had reserved. There was barely any room to walk in the room, no dresser/drawers, a desk so small I had to put the coffee machine on the floor to use my laptop. Ideal location but would absolutely never stay again."
