Perhaps more iconic than the hotel itself is its sign. The Art Deco hotel opened in 1931, and the sign was put up the following year. Guests include composer Igor Stavinsky and author Herman Wouk. Read more

The absolute best hotel in New York (and I've probably stayed in at least a two dozen). But get ready to pay a fortune for everything ... including wi-fi and room service .

Nadia IssaBella

Exceptional hotel but they over charge for everything from wifi to just using their coffee machines .

Mike Kalen

Perfectly located in Central Park south between Columbus circle and the Plaza Hotel . Service is great and the concierge lounge is top rate. Celebrity watch!!

Ahmed Alakeel احمد العقيل

If you have seen other JW Marriott hotels . This one is lower level than the others. And extensive.

Travis Mac

In a land of great hotel bars , this one is terrible. I hope Marriott takes notes from the ritz, st Regis, and the plaza (all nearby) and steps it up!

Tim

Some awesome views from a thousand usd per night room.

Scott Kleinberg

Nice views here. Great conference facilities too.

Jake Spencer Hammel

Get the Central Park view it’s worth it!

Alex Ravenel

One of the better Marriott properties in the city . If you have status, the concierge lounge is particularly nice.

Andrew Brackin

The Beds are so nice and unlike most hotels the items in rooms aren't cheap . The TV is HD and is really nice along with other items in room. Food is pricey but amazing. Wifi in rooms but costs.

If you have multiple devices you want to connect to the internet hook up a mac via ethernet, pay for that and share its internet over wifi !

David Cobb

Sarabeth 's, just down the road towards 5th, is a great place for breakfast . Try the Papa Bear porridge !

Kerem Dereli

There's not a whole bunch to choose from delicacies for brunch . The price was hefty as well . Go to Sarabeth 's nearby instead

John Maine

Outstanding. Highly recommended for your next visit to NYC

Awesome hotel with great views of the park

فهد عبدالله الربيعه

Nice hotel if you wanna take a rest before you start the olympics around the avenues :)

Rachel Lodin

Beautiful views of the park from this hotel !

Cindy Salmins

Had a box overnight mailed and they lost it for several hours. $400/night for service like that? I know it's NYC, but $25.00 for continental breakfast ?

Rim Karoui

Staff is friendly and helpful. But the rooms could be better. disappointing quality for the reputation and pricr of the hotel

Daniel Stawasen

2500 points per night until lounge is ready for Platinum members.

Really disappointed. Over $500 a night booked well in advance. Elite member. Asked for high floor and got 3rd floor overlooking generators, dreary room, old; nothing like the photos.
