Roosevelt Hotel New York - New York

This is a well presented hotel right in the heart of mid town Manhattan. It boasts a splendid and quite opulent foyer with staff on hand to assist when needed. It has a bar/restaurant on site and seems to be popular for the convention circuit. Our room was very spacious, clean and comfortable although the bathroom looked a little tired it was still clean. I would be happy to return to this hotel at a future date. Whilst a complimentary shuttle service to JFK was not included they do have an arrangements in hand and you'll need to speak to the concierge about this and a 1 way trip cost approx $40 for 2 but it drops you to the terminal from the hotel.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The hotel was close to all the main attractions - only about a fifteen minute walk to Macy's, Central Park, and Times Square, with Fifth and Madison Avenues practically on the doorstep. The hotel itself is very beautiful inside, with opulent marble and chandeliers. The room was comfortable and very clean, though there was noise outside one night that made it difficult to sleep. This was due to roadworks, though, so nothing to do with the hotel. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Food and drink in the hotel itself is expensive, though, and you can find cheaper places to eat down the street. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back.

Hotel lobby was fantastic - very grand. Location is very good, 15mins from the Empire State Building and 10 mins from Times Sq. The room we stayed in seemed pleasent at first but soon discovered that the bathrroom was very pokey as it was hard to get into between opeening the door and the edge of the shower. Shower ddoor wouldn't close properly and the shower head didn't seem to get much pressure and so the water didn't comee at as fast as we would like.

Great hotel with a convenient location--close to many major attractions and easy walk to the metro.

I was a very nice lookiin hotel which was very close the Grand Central Station fr the subway and right down from Times Square and could walk to all great places.

we had a small problem with our room when the headboard came loose from the wall. When I notified the front desk they were very understanding and upgraded our room. We ended getting an amazing room and could not have been more pleased with our stay.

The hotel lobby is very nice and inviting. The staff at this hotel is not friendly. The front desk employee's don't look up from their computers nor do they greet you or smile at all. I find it very strange that when having your bags held by the hotel that the bellhop looks at your and says "follow me" and makes you carry your own bags up stairs and to a room where he then grabs them from you hands you a ticket and walks away. Very strange.

Dependable as always. The condition of the room was fine. Quiet as i requested. They upgraded me to a King at no extra cost.

Extremely satisfied with the Roosevelt. The location was great - very close to a lot of NYC attractions. Our room was small, but that was expected. It was clean and in pretty good condition. The only problem we encountered was very rusty/dirty water coming from the shower faucet. It only happened once though. when we called the front desk, they said it was due to the age of the hotel and to just let the water run for a bit. We were on the 17th floor - the nightclub is on the 19th or 20th. We could hear the music on Satudray night, so if you want quiet, request a lower floor.

The room was very comfortable and clean. The airconditioning was great! The location, especially so close to Grand Central Station made getting around town a breeze. The hotel was completely sold out but there was never any noise from the hallway or other rooms.

The Roosevelt is like a hotel from another era; a classic New York style hotel. The doorman, who seemingly never slept, was exceptionally kind and helpful. The entire staff made us feel at ease, and the decor of the hotel felt like a travel back to the 20's. The restaurants and bars on site made this a convenient and romantic getaway. Thanks, we will se you again!

A very elegant hotel with friendly staff. We really enjoyed staying at this luxurious hotel and the roof garden bar was magical at night. It is in a very good location close to Central Station, ideal for travelling on public transport or just enjoying the architecture of the building and about 5 minutes walk to Times Square. We had two rooms, one room was good and the other room was fantastic, we all enjoyed this fabulous hotel. I booked a weekend special offer which also made it good value!

For the price, I expected another old hotel that comes off stuffy, harboring odors from days gone by. That was not the case at all. There is a bit of history tied to the place that made it more enjoyable. The place is huge. The 6 elevator banks are a bit slow, but sufficient. Rooms are on the contemporary side. Large lobby is majestic and comfortable at once. The large European contingency that chooses to stay here often requires you to push through a wall of cigarette smoke outside with folks sating their addictions, but New York is no stranger to smokers. I'd stay here again.

...what else do you need to know? I wish I lived at the Roosevelt.

I feel for the cost of the room that internet service should be included. I stayed at another hotel in NYC with did include internet for the same cost!

We had a wonderful time in NYC and the Roosevelt was a big part of it. You cannot do better for midtown. Broadway, Times Square are a short walk and Grand Central Station is half a block. The price was reasonable and the room, although small, was exactly what we needed. The bed was comfortable, the furnishings clean, and the service excellent. The negatives. There was no coffee maker in the room (a mostly standard feature in the hinterlands). Internet service is $15 per night. It was rather nice being out of touch and when we wanted to connect, Barnes and Noble had free internet, 8AM to 9PM, one block away. Still it was irritating. As others have noted here, the front desk staff can be brusk, although for our stay that behavior was one out of three and the service staff was uniformly helpful. The positives far outweigh the negatives. The public areas are awesome. The room was delightful. Did I mention Location?

This was a best location for our activities in the city. Within walking distance to everything. The room was super comfortable, I will definitely be back!

Location was great! Less than 1 block to Central Station. Hotel is nice; lobby is beautiful!. Employees were very courteous and helpful. Positive: Room was clean; Bed was comfortable. Restroom was clean - although small. Negative: Toiletries were rationed! The room we were in I believe is moldy. My husband's allergies would flare during our stay in the hotel. Overall, our experience was pleasant.

1st impression is great with a fantastic lobby (but you don't sleep there) we were upgraded to a bigger room (with 2 teenage girls); this room was fairly big with plenty of room, however the air con was very noisy and the bathroom was very shabby and needs a complete overhaul even the door didn't completely shut. we didn't mind that much as we only slept here rather than used it as a living quarters. the drinks in the bar were expensive ($15 for 2 beers) and bar staff were misrable. the location was good with deli's etc within 5 mins and times sq etc within 20 mins for walking. I wouldn't say it was bad but it definitely needs a refurb.

I stayed here while on vacation, 8/17-8/21/09, with my children who are 10 and 7 yrs old. This hotel is central to most tourist attractions. We walked everywhere except for when we went to staten island. I had the superior room with 2 double beds. The size wasn't bad at all, I had been afraid it would be too small based on some reviews I'd read before my arrival. The purpose of our visit was to tour the city so we barely spent any time in the hotel other than sleeping. I didn't have to ask for anything extra. An iron and ironing board in one of the closets. Plenty of closet space and hangers and dresser drawers for all our clothes. The bathroom had a tub and shower. Plenty of towels every day. I have to say that the bathtub wasn't attractive at all, it was pretty old and discolored in some spots. I wish it looked better so I could have soaked in it after those long days of walking. There's also a business room with computers and printers. I was disappointed that you have to pay to access the internet. You'd think they could afford to provide this as a courtesy to the guests.

Fine location.Good ammenities

This hotel rocks. Middle of everything. Rooms are small but for the price you can't go wrong. Great location. I would recommend.

Who goes to NYC to stay inside a hotel the whole time?! Roosevelt was about two blocks from Grand Central, the staff was ready and eager to help, and the facilities such as bar, lounge, and elevators were satisfactory. Those are the positives, the downside was how TINY our room was- two double beds stuffed into a room a little bigger than my walk-in closet. It was sufficient for our purpose in visiting NYC, just a little disappointing. Nonetheless, a very enjoyable experience.

Rather old fashioned but well located. Chaotic checkin

The hotel's location is only a few minutes walk from American Girl Place, Build A Bear, World of Disney, Times Square, NBC Studios, Grand Central Station and Central Park. The only problem we had was the vending and ice machines on our floor did not work, but a trip up the stairs to the next floor was better than the elevator as the stairwell was located near the vending room.

The Roosevelt is a Hotel that makes New York City proud. The rooms were great and the beds even greater, very easy to sleep on. The location of the hotel is in very good location and easy access to other areas.

The rooms were quite large (though I did pay extra for the superior room after reading everyone's commments about how tiny the rooms were), very comfortable, and the location perfect for us. Check out was easy and we were able to leave our bags with the hotel until we were ready to leave the city.

A comfortable hotel near to all of the main attractions. Our room was quiet and away from the main roads however the air conditioning was noisy and we had to switch it off at night.

Outstanding location for my needs - was very impressed with the hotel and servics. Will definitely use it again.

Small room but perfectly adequate for time i was staying. Bed and bedding very clean and comfortable. Nice Bar/lounge area.

I was extremly satisfied with the Roosevelt. Anything you needed, they were there for you. The staff was one of the best I have ever come across. The location...WOW..walking distance to everything. I am definately staying at the Roosevelt next time im in NY..no doubt!!!The whole feel of the hotel was nice. The Bathrooms were outdated, but they were clean. SUPER LOCATION!!!! Great stay...DEFINATELY WOULD RECOMMEND THE ROOSEVELT!!!!!!!!!!!

The hotel was in a great location and very grand, but showing its age. Rooms were a little musty and elevators were slow. Otherwise it was a lovely place.

I almost don't want to tell everyone how great this hotel was. We loved it! The price was great it was a couple blocks from Grand Central and a short walk to Times Square and Rockefeller Center. The rooms were older but very clean. We have nothing bad to say about it. We are going to book there again when we go back to NY.

First of all I received upgrade on my room as soon as I checked in which was very nice. I was very pleased with that. Staff was super nice and friendly with smiles on their faces. The room was clean, big, comfortable. Flat screen TV and all that. The bed is super comfortable. In my opinion, my friends opinion the hotel was great. I got good deal in price on hotels.com (the cheapest out of all websites) :) The location is amazing (like walking distance from the center) no need to use subways.... I am very happy and next time I go to New York I am 100% staying again at the Roosevelt Hotel ... Oh one thing they can work on is the BATHROOM ( its kind of outdated) but its ok! It was clean !!!

The hotel is really lovely and the rooms were clean and nice. The only problem was that even though I requested "non smoking" at the website, when I got to the hotel, they said that the website small print says they can't guarantee preferences and they had no non smoking rooms available. So, the room smelled like smokers had been there, although they do a good job of cleaning and fumigating - if you're a non smoker, you can really tell and my clothes smelled like cigarettes when I opened my suitcase back home. But honestly, other than that glitch, it's a beautiful hotel in a good location for a great price and I would stay there again - I'll just try to make sure that I get a non smoking room!

The lobby is really nice but since no one sleeps at the lobby I would say this hotel needs urgent renovation. The rooms are small and clean but they give you that impression you are still in the 80's except for the LCD TV. The Roosevelt can be a great hotel specially because of its location, but the owners need to make some serious investments. It's worth if you get a very good rate.
