The Blakely by LuxUrban

I had a awesome day in the hotel. It was clean and friendly environment and employees were friendly.

Hotel is very nice and clean, has a very homey feeling, amazing service by the staff, great location.

The lsiz of the room was exceptionally large for New York City and especially for this older building.

Hotel is definitely in need of updating. Location was excellent, room size was very good by NYC standards. Shower had plenty of hot water and pressure. In room refrigerator, microwave and mini sink was a nice bonus.

There was no hair dryer no tissue box. They placed me in an adjoining room where the next guests kept trying to open the door. This happened several times and the receptionist didn’t do anything but make a call. Later raised to management who said I hope the rest of your stay was fine.

Good location, easy to get around, plenty of places to eat, lots to see. Get what you pay for as this was cheaper than other nearby hotels, rooms were good size but what looked nice in pics certainly needed updating. TVs could have used access to streaming apps. A bit noisy we were on second floor. We were happy with great water pressure. Convenient parking garage next door not affiliated with hotel and no discount. If you are not going to spend a lot of time in room and be out seeing many sites, not a bad choice.

The best part of this hotel is the location. Easy to walk to Rockefeller Center, Times Sq, Central Park, etc. The room having a separate lounge area was great too. But this hotel is in desperate need of a renovation! The heat was either on or off with little inbetween. You’re hot or cold. The windows must be single pane and you can hear all street noise. The TV system is from 2000 at best. The cover on the daybed was so dirty looking that I didn’t want to sit on it nevermind the idea of sleeping on it. There was no extra blanket for that anyway. And the bathroom was so dark. I hope they update the hotel soon. It is great for families with lots of space which is amazing in NYC.

Loved the old feel and location. Staff very nice. Definitely needs to be updated. Broken mirror in bathroom, no hair dryer. Big room! The hide a bed was unusable as it was old and all the bars could be felt. Would we stay again? Yes. :-)

Brilliant find - just around the corner from the nearest sub and a 10minute walk from Times square. Room was beautiful and massive with a separate lounge area with another TV. Heating so easy to use though not remote control but wasnt an issue. Staff were great and although they said kettles were included, all you have to do is ask. Cleaner lady so friendly and nothing is too much hassle. Stayed 6 nights and WILL definately be back again. Luggage was left on last day for only 2$ - a lot less than other hotels nearby. No onsite dinner but plenty of snacks to buy if hungry.
