Liked: The staff was truly amazing. From front desk to the service and conversation during the complimentary wine and cheese. The room was clean and the bathroom was particularly lovely with great products.

Liked: It was in a great location. Surrounded by many restaurants and souvenir shops. It was just two blocks from Central Park! Everything we wanted to see was within walking distance. The main woman at the reception desk was so great, also. Made us feel very welcome! I wish I could remember her name. She was awesome.
Disliked: The hotel sent me a text stating I had been downgraded to a Queen Room due to HVAC issues. I was disappointed to have been given a smaller room when I paid for a King room. Upon check-in I was still under the impression I would be receiving a Queen Room but was happy it was a King once we entered the room.

Not sure we could have...

Liked: Great mid-town location! Walking distance to the Park, Times. Sq, St Patrick's, Rock Center et al. (Patsy's was a block and a half away! Molto bene!) We were on the eighth floor directly across from Carnegie Hall - we were able to open a window slightly to capture some fresh air - some street noise with window open but total silence just by closing the window and turning on AC. Very comfortable bed and large walk- in shower. We were a little off-put at first by having no coffee machine in the room but it turned out to be totally unnecessary with the availability of 24/7 (free) beverages in lobby. I believe there's only 4 rooms to a floor (that I saw) so the elevator was just steps from the room. Took literally 5 minutes to go to the lobby and get multiple cups of coffee and place on a tray and return to the room. Hotel also offers breakfast in the morning and snacks with wine in the evening. When I was traveling for work - this hotel would have been very near the top of my list of great places to stay. Staff was very welcoming and helpful! Rating 9.9. Well done, Carnegie Hotel! (PS: also loved the lobby mural with past Carnegie Hall performers)
Disliked: We didn't see a luggage rack in the closet (?) so we had to place our luggage bags on the floor- not a big deal- but it does take up some floor space in the room.
