Unfortunately the room we had was the most noisiest hotel room we have ever had in our life. The constant beeping of cars, trucks, sirens was ridiculous. Our bathroom door didn’t slide easy, shower head was broken, toilet only had one flush mode working, heating was broken. This was not cheap accommodation either. So when you are planning a trip to New York and actually want good accommodation please don’t make our mistake, make sure you get sound proof rooms.

Disappointing
I was honestly disappointed with this hotel. It was extremely run down & didn’t really look like the photos. The staff were rude & not willing to really help too much. There wasn’t many restaurants nearby to choose from for family dining. The bathroom was tiny & shower took forever to heat up & then when it did the water wasn’t very warm. It was loud & just heard sirens all night. Lobby was tiny so constantly congested. Overall disappointing & not worth $550 per night

Won’t return or recommend Sonesta hotels
We stayed in a family room. Right next to the elevators. From check in to sleeping, we were extremely disappointed. Upon check in I waited a bit for someone to come to the front desk. Not a huge deal, but no "thank you for your wait." No smile or welcoming vibe. The only plus was upon getting to our room the pullout couch was made up and ready for sleeping. Which we did really appreciate. The room smelled all night of steak being cooked. We walked in and smelled steak, went to sleep and could smell steak. I love steak, but do not want to smell it for hours on end. Our room was near the elevators. And we could hear the ding of the elevator bells routinely all night. The room windows were also not very sound proof and we could hear outside noises all night - especially sirens. The bathroom was musty and run down. And not particularly clean. And before heading to dinner we asked the bellman if we could please have an umbrella and he just pointed to the desk and said ask them. Perhaps he was upset at us because we did not have cash for a tip earlier and we had every intention of making it right - but for the rest of our stay he was curt. Before check out we brought up all issues with the manager. But because we had pre-paid we were told there was nothing they could do but take off the incidentals and allow each member of our family to select some snacks for the ride home. That’s a kind gesture. However when paying almost $700 for a stinky, not great room, it is inadequate.
