NEW YORKER BY LOTTE HOTELS

8/10 Good
"Our family of 3 stayed for 5 nights in a Metro View Room, 2 Double Beds on the 35th Floor. The view was incredible overlooking the Empire State Building. We were warmly welcomed by the Reception who were quick, helpful and knowledgeable. We were in our room within ten minutes of arriving. The room was clean and spacious and although the beds were a little smaller than an average double they were very comfortable with plenty of pillows and there was plenty of space for the three of us. The rooms were cleaned daily and there were several sets of towels, soaps, lotions, shampoo and conditioner, hair dryer, iron and ironing board. The location of the hotel was perfect, with only a two minute walk to Penn Station giving access to all trains and subways right on our doorstep making the journey from JFK airport an absolute doddle (even with a 9 year old in tow!). So many attractions were an easy 10 to 20 minutes walking distance in any direction or the short hop onto the subway to travel further. The only thing I would say is that the hotel did look a little tired, carpets were worn and it could probably do with a fresh lick of paint but all in all we had a really enjoyable stay and would recommend this hotel to others looking for a functional hotel which is comfortable, clean and in a great location."
