Gershwin Hotel

Great deal. Good location. Cool, funky hotel. When i come back to NYC I'll probably stay here again.

The location and value for money was excellent. Good deli around the corner which makes up for lack of restaurant, hotel however, does have a small coffee shop. Rooms were very warm, had to turn heat off, even in November! Good size shower and bathroom. Would have no problem recommending hotel for city shopping break.

No kettle facility in bedrooms

it's quirkiness and it's central position

TV remote did not work!

I liked the lobby, very artistic and the position

A. The room was not renovated. B. the room was not warm, had moisture and a non definable smell.

Convenient location, good price, clean and functional

Rooms basic, bathroom needs updating.

Room on 12th floor (KS-bed) was perfect. Hotel is near Empire State Building and subway station. Breakfast restaurant with natural food ca. 100m (corner 5th av and 27th street).

unusual facade and lobby, nice room furnishings, perfect location for our purposes

keep up with maintenance of little things, such as grout lines in shower, leaking shower head...

The hotel was situated just off 5th Avenue so close to sightseeing and shops. Beds were quite comfortable if we had been able to sleep! Room was an okay size, just bathroom that was minute. Staff generally polite and tried to help when asked.

Very tatty, needs major redecorating. Tiles cracked in tiny bathroom, window didn't shut, no double glazing so very cold. Old cranky radiator that made loud noises all night long so interrupted sleep unless it was turned off. Boiler broke down so no hot water. Cold water tap wouldn't turn off so dripped all the time. Gaps around air conditioner in window so draught blowing through all night long. Generally very run down and not worth the amount charged for a room. Was annoyed to have another $300 added to bill when I arrived as 'taxes' not shown on initial booking so be aware of that.

The location was very good and the room was clean.

Don't ask the concierge to book a car to the airport. Rip-off.

The location

An update of the bed linens would be a great improvement. It could add a more fresh and somewhat comfortable look to the small dated rooms.

The interior design was cool and the location was good.

I wasn't pleased with the fact that you have to pay a rather high price for the use of wireless internet. Also the beds were too hard and the pillow could have been made of stone for all the softness it had. The TV remote in our room broke down two times and they told they'd send a maintenance guy to check it out. It did work after his visit, but only for a short while. Second time we didn't bother. A thing that displeased all the other guests that I spoke to was that there was only one elevator in the entire hotel an that was very slow and very small. It didn't help that the staff, such as the cleaning ladies used the same elevator. It took ages to get up or down.

excellent location.

the shower had a drip.

It was close to what we wanted to do in the city.

The bathroom was filthy and the room was a joke. For another few bucks I could have stayed at a real hotel. The web description of the hotel was not was it was. I felt like it was a seedy motel room with hidden cameras everywhere. It was very uncomfortable. But the bathroom was the worst. Moldy tub and dirty floors. I told them to try to Tilex nextime.
