Customer Reviews for Excelsior Hotel New York Area - Ny
Our Customer stayed here in August 2008
Despite certain doubts that I might have had regarding this hotel from comments on other web sites I can only report favourably.
We were originally given a twin bedded small rooom having requested a double and within 10 minutes were upgraded to a much superior larger room.
Position is excellent as very near 2 subway statiosn and with subway pass $25 for whole week an absolute steal!.
Away from the hustle and bustle of hotels Downtown and a lot quieter.
Breakfast is served in he library and continental $16.50 full American $ 19.00 (a no brainer which one to take?) and very nicely presented. However, with so many diners literally 1/2 blocks away in either Amsterdam or Columbus you cna easily eat for $ 10 per head.
With the exception of the front reception staff who were a bit surly every one else was very pleasant and I would heartily ecommend this hotel- only 1 caveat - air conditioning system in romm is rather antiquated and very noisy.
Hotel is showing its age and could do with a good lick of paint but beds very comfortable and with quite location and position a very good value for money property.
4 out of 5
