The pillows are special and the bed is comfortable. The bathroom is always clean and the shower is always clean. The team is helpful, cheerful, and friendly, and the luggage service is excellent. You really feel at home. Thanks Hard Rock Read less

overall stay was nice, only downside was I had to request a knife 3 days in a row and escalate it to a manager to receive it. Did not receive an apology or anything for the inconvenience.

We stayed here a few weeks ago for 5 nights and it was in a great location right on Time Square, clean, friendly staff, nice room although a bit on the small side so definitely not for a longer stay, comfortable bed, and the best shower I've had in ages! I absolutely loved that shower with its adjustable head that created a fluffy stream that was so relaxing after all the walking we did. When we went down for breakfast on our first day, we were shocked at how small the orange juice was and how expensive it was! I had avocado on toast, which tasted odd so ended up having just the orange juice, my partner had scrambled egg on toast and said it was just ok. The toast was more like warm bread, so as we both didn't like what we had, we didn't eat here again. I'd recommend eating anywhere else actually as it's way too expensive for what you get. UT47 down the road was delicious so went there instead. The room was nicely decorated and clean. There was a sliding door to separate the bedroom which was great in reducing noise from the other guests. Nice touch 👌 Overall the stay was good, and the staff were all lovely. We would stay here again but in a larger room. Read less
