When our day could not be busier, we checked in at Empire and a gentleman name Pasquale welcomed us with his bright smile. He was very helpful, funny and accommodating. He also gave us wealth of Information on where to go. I will definitely come back again. This hotel is a gem and for the price we paid.

Nothing. Small rooms, uncomfortable bed, no conceriege etc...

Kay, United States of America

Great hotel. Great service. Great location and great price :)

Nutthapon, United Kingdom

Starting with the staff upon entering the building, they were willing to go over and above! Very friendly and welcoming, smiles abound! The ambiance of the entrance was great. They are constantly updating and beautifying the building. Rooms were NY cozy. Can’t say enough about the Empire Hotel! Going back again!

Steven, United States of America

We loved the location and the service from front desk to the housekeeping servers. Everyone was very welcoming and genuine. We absolutely loved the view from our room. We even stayed in our room one evening to spend quality time just to stare at the view.

Cynthia, United States of America

Helpful staff. Good atmosphere. Good location. Room prices were reasonable, in particular for the location. Easy to move around on foot or by metro. Good size room, recently refreshed, with a safe and frigo. I was satisfied with the experience and plan on returning. Good quality toiletries.

Simao, Switzerland

This hotel is a great value. I compared prices with other UWS hotels, and the Empire is a comparative bargain. The location (right across the street from Lincoln Center) can’t be beat.

Its an old hotel, so I don't fault them, but noisy (clanking radiators, service elevators, street noise). We asked to be assigned a different room after our first one had faulty heater. The showers are poorly designed and get water all over the place, but otherwise nice bathrooms.
Location is great, adequate gym, rooftop bar, nice lobby bar, staff is friendly. Coffee right next door.
