Gravesend Hotels, New York

"Room was clean but shower was terrible, draining issues( were sorted next day up to a limit), using shower was tricky, all three the tap, hand held shower and rain shower work together or only hand held, we found setting pretty unfriendly. For Brits: no tea facilities in the room. Staff was good, a separate fridge was provided so if you don’t want to use mini bar then still have a chance to keep your drinks nice and cooler."

"The best thing about the St. James is the location!!! Can’t beat being in the center of Manhattan and so close to everything! The staff was wonderful and kind. The hotel itself is older but somewhat updated. The worst part were the beds that were hard as concrete and the window ac that was broken and rattling constantly. We only stayed in the hotel for sleeping but it was not restful inn any way. If the price was this good in this location, we kinda figured there would be a catch, sleeplessness was the catch. However, we would stay again because of all of the other positives! :)"

"Great staff. Clean room with tv, a bed, a closet, a chair, a bathtub - a great price but few amenities. I had to ask for paper cups ( no glasses) or coffee or chargers. The lobby was striking art deco and there was a café in the hotel where you could get coffee. Also a great location if you want to enjoy Broadway shows and Times Square."

"Great"

"We recently stayed at The New Yorker for a quick two-day, one-night trip, and overall had a pleasant experience. The hotel itself is nice and centrally located right off 8th Avenue, making it very convenient for exploring the heart of New York. Although there was construction happening outside, it did not impact our stay. Check-in was a highlight. The front desk associate was welcoming, allowed us an early check-in, and even provided an upgraded room, which we truly appreciated. There were a few small touches that could have made the stay even better. For a hotel of this size and location, it would have been nice to have complimentary coffee or water available in the lobby. While the room included a Keurig, it only had coffee and no tea options. Additionally, there was no microwave in the room or accessible anywhere in the hotel. After ordering in-room dining, which was quite expensive, it would have been helpful to reheat leftovers rather than having to go back out. Bathroom amenities were also very basic. Items like lotion or makeup remover wipes would have been a nice addition, especially compared to other hotels at a similar or even lower price point. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, especially the location and customer service, but a few added conveniences and amenities would elevate the experience even more. "

"It was a NYC hotel room. Very small but good quality."

"Best part of this place is the location. Room was okay. Little dirty in the corners. But bedding was crisp and clean. Staff made our beds daily and was friendly. Descent value for the hustle and bustle of NYC."
