    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    The rooftop set up steals the show at the Empire Hotel – it’s got a plunge pool surrounded by cabanas, a cocktail bar, and sweeping views across the city.

    This hotel’s on the Upper West Side, so there are plenty of museums and cultural hotspots nearby – the Lincoln Center is two minutes’ walk away. Plus, it’s in a great spot for exploring Central Park – a two-minute walk will find you on its south-western corner.

    There’s a first-rate dining scene at this place. The seafood restaurant comes with top reviews, while the lobby bar rolls out a Gossip Girl-themed cocktail menu.

    Amazing Location

    The hotel is in a really good area and with amazing price. The room is small, but very comfortable. The shower is amazing. Despite the area, the hotel is very quite, what is essential to sleep after long walks in NY. The hotel is few minutes from Central Park and a small walk to Times Square.
    A chaotic fiasco
    16 Jan , 2019 PHD4
    We arrived at 13.30. They said we would have to wait until 3pm (check-in time) as they had no idea whether any rooms were already available. Their computer systems were down and had been for 2 days so everything had to be done manually. We waited and then tried to check in. What a fiasco. The line got longer and longer as it was taking so long to check everyone in. We finally got a room. It was under construction when we got to it so we had to request another. Evans (thank you!) was very helpful. We got another room - but when we opened the door discovered it was already occupied! So, back to reception. Unfortunately Evans was now off shift. We asked for a manager - I think 4 times and over 15 minutes (he never came). Eventually we were allocated to a suite and all went well after that. It was not a pleasant experience to arrive tired after a long flight, wanting a sleep before an evening of opera and not even seeing the room until a few minutes before we needed to go out again. Also, I find it hard to stomach that they charge $9.95 + tax for a day of wifi (they even charge $5 for an hour in the business centre!). Only in America - where else in the world do you have to pay for wifi?
    Weekend visit to NYC and Julliard

    The Empire Hotel was was a wonderful place to stay while visiting NYC. It was easy to get to the metro, or to go for a morning run in Central Park. The rooms were excellent. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. We were very pleased and would definitely stay at the Empire Hotel whenever we are in NYC.
    Money stolen by staff.

    My family and I stayed at this older hotel in May 2018. Our experience was not a good one. We had $500 stolen by the staff. We had decided to pay for one of the tooms with cash on the last day. The hotel said this did nit happen. They have CCTV at the front desk, but they said it had been erased. We tried Multiple times to duscuss the matter, but were ignored. I will never stay here again. Totally unprofessional establishment. Gary W

    Had surgery scheduled at Mount Sinai West and needed a place to stay that was close the night before! Everyone was helpful, room was comfortable, location was great! Couldn’t have asked for a better stay!
