a pleasant experience but not what we paid for
I don't mean to sound nasty because I don't want to. The New Yorker is a decent 4-star hotel, very clean, in a great location but..there are things people should know. First of all, it took them ages to answer our email before we went to NY concerning some requests we had. Moreover, all the receptionists seemed to be utterly busy to pay any notice to us so we had to ask for help twice. They would not smile either, I don't know if it is in their mentality, after all. There are 40 floors in the hotel and we stayed on the 36th floor which was great because we had a room with a view (The Empire State Building on one side and the Hudson River on the other). We asked for a room with a view and they gave it to us so that went well. However, the cleaning ladies kept making so much noise, especially at 7 o'clock in the morning! We repeatedly complained about it but nobody did anything. It was constant noise coming from the cleaning ladies. Morever, we stayed there for 16 nights (believe me, a 16-night accommodation in NY is very expensive) so the least they could do was to upgrade us to a suite, at least for one night!!! I know, they did not have to do it but we have stayed in many hotels around the world and that happened many times. We have noticed that, in general, decent hotel chains that want to keep the customer satisfied and that want to see the customer come back are in the habit of upgrading a room at least for one night. That is why we will not stay there when we visit New York next time. In general, the hotel was very nice and clean. I just wish they could smile more and definitely be more polite because it seems that generally rudeness in New York is abundant. All in all, we paid for more than we actually got.
Unique Quality: The view from the 36th floor was breathtaking!

Great Hotel
We recommend this Hotel, Clean and tidy rooms ( a common moan from many VT'ers are about room sizes in Hotels in NY), whilst not being enormous were spacious enough, shower was powerful and room was made up every day, staff were helpful and friendly and Hotel is handy enough for many of the attractions.

Great Hotel on perfect Location
This was my fist trip to New York for a business meeting with my client. I stay there for a 3 nights with my business partner. The hotel is on perfect location and this is the one thing I must see before book any hotel. The New Yorker hotel is located in Midtown Manhattan and very close to Macys, Empire State Building and New York City Amtrak. The hotel is only 10 Kilometers from New York Airport. In one words hotel is easily accessible from major part of the New York city.
I was in the 25 floor of New Yorker hotel with a great view of city. The room was well decorated and meet luxurious requirement. The hotel service was excellent especially the hotel staffs are very friendly and egger to help. The restaurants in hotel are another great asset and serve amazing food. Overall this was a very nice experience and everything ws fine there including pickup to departure. I recommended this hotel for their excellent services and must visit again. I had booked New Yorker hotel through http://www.southalltravel.co.uk/newoffer/usa/newyorker.aspx

Ramada New Yorker Hotel
http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/66ac0/cd624/ this might help a bit, you can get the citypass which will cut down on expenditure and we found a hot dog stand with hot dogs for 75 cents. The Ramada New Yorker was the hotel we stayed in, please see the review. You can also show your passport at Macy's and get a discount card for shopping there. Have fun Michelle!

Great location, newly renovated
I have been staying at this hotel for the last 6 years as every November I go on an annual shopping trip to NYC. I have to say that in previous years the hotel was outdated and some rooms were quite grotty but a visit to reception meant they moved you straight away and we were then happy with the rooms we were moved to (often upgraded). Over the last couple of years they have been renovating the rooms and they are now really nice and modern. I have to say as well the deluxe rooms have space and are not crammed at all (I'm not sure if the Metro rooms are as spacious). The hotel is a great location and easy to walk back from Macy's after a long day out, laiden with shopping bags..hence why we return there year after year! I would thoroughly recommend this hotel. Also Tip Top (restarant in the hotel) does a great breakfast to start the day off with and is open all hours so can always grab a cup of tea and they deliver to your room!
Unique Quality: Great views over the city if you have city view! Very central and great location.

Nice location
Stayed in room 2712. It was a suite (one bedroom, one sitting room, 2 bathrooms and 3 closets).
Apart from the renovation it needs (it is in progress)it is a nice hotel, very big room and very clean.
Godd value for money as it is very centrally located
Advantage the Tic-Toc 24 hours restaurant in the lobby.

Too small and expensive for what you get
The lobby looks grand and full of splendour, but when we got up to our floor, we weren't that impressed. Why you may ask? Well for one the carpets in the hallway looked like they had been there for donkeys years, they weren't clean and which kind of dashed our expectations of the the glamour and style of a hotel in the heart of Manhattan.
We were shocked to find an incredibly tiny room with very boring interior decor, brown and grey. I guessed that this place wasn't really for long stays and especially being New York, they figured that you'd spend more time out than in! The view from our window was of the hustle and bustle of airconditioners packed to the sides of tall office blocks all of the vicinity. No it wasn't what I would call a room with a view!
Unique Quality: The best thing about this hotel was it's location, you can walk around the city from here and I guess the neighbourhood isn't too bad for tourists strollign around after dark. There are plenty of diners and restaurants within a 20 minute walk if you don't want to eat at the hotel restaurants in the lobby area.

Fairly low priced hotel in Midtown Manhattan
The New Yorker Hotel offers rooms at a quite reasonable price compared to other hotels in Manhattan. We paid about $220.- a night, which was incl. tax and over the weekend. Of course you don't get a luxury hotel for that price. The rooms are rather small and old, but everything was clean and kept in order.
In the hotel's lobby they advertise a major renovation. Probably prices will go up after the renovation work is done....
Unique Quality: What is special about the New Yorker is that all rooms are between the 19th and 40th floor, which means that you always get the view (even though the window may be rather small). We had a room on the 32nd and you can see the great view we had in the pic.
Another plus is the location of the hotel. Being practically next to Penn Station, you can choose from several underground lines and get to any point in Manhattan in no time.

Skanky place to stay
ugggghhh! The foyer was promising, but despite booking a double room for our first night in the states, the concierge insisted we could only have a twin as no doubles were available, did not have energy to argue as been up 24hrs. got lift to room, doors opened onto grubby corridor with badly fitting carpets. room equally as grubby and view of other hotel rooms not what I had in mind. only stayed one night, would never go there again. I wrote to complain, and they never even had the courtesy to reply.
Unique Quality: grubbiness

Good location, small rooms
Good thing is the location. It's close to everything. The rooms are very small though, but as there is so much to do in New York, one isn't expected to stay in his hotelroom for long. The view is probably very nice if you have a room on the outside. All we coud see was a wall. But hey, who cares when you're in New York!
We never dined there, so I couldn't say anything about the food. Staff was friendly.
I have no idea about the price, as it was a package deal with flight and hotel.
Unique Quality: Location.

Ramada New Yorker Hotel
Has anyone stayed in the Ramada New Yorker?
I foolishly booked 5 nights there before I discovered Trip Advisor!
I'm not expecting anything grand - clean, safe and somewhere to sleep and shower is enough for me as don't plan on spending much time in there!
Trip Advisor's giving me nightmares though! :)
Any feedback appreciated.

Re: Ramada New Yorker Hotel
hi.
i dont have any experience with this hotel.
but i have found tripadvisor to be pretty much full of negative people. several hotels i have stayed in this year were trashed by it. maybe there are better hotels out there. but for the money i pay i am happy or thrilled with the places that ta trashes.
good luck with the search
Re: Re: Ramada New Yorker Hotel
I find tripadvisor.com to be very reliable. I disregard the very best and very worst reviews because I cynically believe they're written by the owners and their competitors. Somewhere in the middle is the truth.
The good news is that it's incredibly easy to get around Manhattan, so as long as you have a clean place to sleep, don't worry. Hopefully you won't be spending too much time in your hotel, anyway.
Re: Ramada New Yorker Hotel
I stayed there a few years ago, and unless it's changed drastically, the comments on tripadvisor would seem to be appropriate. I personally would not stay there again.
