Gayot "A location alone... is enough of a selling point for travelers wishing to be in the center of New York City. But the hotel offers far more appeal than just its address."
BlackBook "Rooms are gorgeous, spacious, comfortably modern and quiet, many with treetop park views."
Zagat3.5
"Tucked in a near-"perfect" location close to Grand Central, this Midtowner puts you "awfully close to where you need to be" and provides "great" views."
