The Hotel at Fifth Avenue

I stayed at this hotel in room 906, from Aug 15th -25th, and it is a great hotel to stay solo or with family. Located in the heart of Korea Town and within walking distance to shopping areas on 34th street, pharmacies, gift shops, all types of Korean dishes. I was even able to walk to Time Square (42nd Street) and also walked to my Dr's appointment on East 36th Street. I had my Metro card from previous visits to NY, but I had no need to use it even once.||I was on the 9th floor and got a room at the back with a view of roofing equipment (as always), but I must say I was very impressed with this hotel. From check-in, the gentlemen was so friendly and even made a joke, which lighened my droopy jet-lagged mood. Surprisingly, the security deposit was minimal compared to the previous hotels I've stayed.||For safety, there are security stationed in the lobby area. The hallways are very well lit and clean, and the room was very big (compared to previous hotels where I stayed), it was beautiful, clean, well lit, and had all the amenities as listed in the hotel ad. There is also a small gym in the basement, which I got to use once.||Most of the staff had a great attitude toward guests. There was an African American young man (may be a security) who held an umbrella over me and my friend's head and individually walked us to our Lyft waiting outside in the pouring rain. We were so grateful. Thank you, sir. The housekeeping staff did a superb job with the daily cleaning, organizing, and restocking the room with toiletries and coffee packages, and although I didn't have much cash to leave them a tip, they kept on cleaning the room faithfully and beautifully every day.||The AC in the room stopped working by the 3rd day into my stay, so the room became very hot. However, I never reported it until the day before I checked out, so it was my fault for enduring the prolonged discomfort, because when I eventually reported it, it was sorted in less than 5 minutes.||I took away 1 star for service due to the lengthy wait times for the elevator, and also, when I called down to the front desk to get stuff sent to my room.||Normally, I don't do hotel pics, but just because I was so impressed with this hotel, I took some pics to show. I know everyone experiences might be different, but I hope this review helps you guys when choosing a hotel to stay in NY.

My husband and I stayed over Christmas. We expected the smaller sized rooms given it’s a hotel in the city and considering the price of other hotels with larger rooms- was one of the nicer cheaper options. We stayed for 5 nights. The room was clean and was perfect for travellers like us who don’t spend much time apart from sleeping and showering in our hotel room when on an overseas trip. The room had the option of temperature control which was nice. The location was perfect, close by to most popular touristy places but also not so in the hustle and bustle. Great places to eat close by. Staff were friendly and helped when needed. Good lobby. The wifi was quite slow in our room but the lobby has plenty of seating so we sat down there when needing to use the internet.

Absolutely banger of a deal for the location. The rooms are dated and tiny but clean. When I say tiny I mean it. Service is phenomenal! and they have a place to store your bags even after you check out. Location is prime just a 5 min walk from MSG and the Empire State Building.

We arrived early on a Sunday and Tom who checked us in was very personable. He even allowed us early check-in without a fee so that we wouldn’t have to store our bags. Our room was nice, comfortable and well-kept, especially for an older property. Although we didn’t request service, the maid(?) asked when I passed her in the hall if we were sure we didn’t want our room service. Every staff member from the bellman to the maintenance man was especially friendly. I only discovered after we had checked out that there was complimentary fresh ground coffee in the mornings if you went down to the lower level below the lobby. My biggest issue was the noise at night. Our room was on the fifth floor overlooking the front of the hotel. Every night of the three nights we were there, there was an almost constant noise of either trucks unloading or trash being picked up. Fortunately, I had my AirPods to block out the sound. Otherwise, I might have gotten so little sleep that I might have requested to change to a room on the back side of the hotel. There is a really nice rooftop bar literally in the shadow of the Empire State Building. I’m also not sure that this hotel is ADA compatible as you have to climb 3-4 steps to get in and there is no ramp or even railing. This was somewhat of an issue for my visually impaired wife. Also, this street is so busy that you sometimes have to wait for an opening in the sidewalk to step out. This hotel is in a good, but very busy location just down the block from the 34th Street and Herald Square subway stop. The street itself is also filled with shops and restaurants, some of which are so popular that there’s a line on the sidewalk. While I liked the facility itself, I would prefer a quieter place a little further from so much tourist activity.

We stayed here for a mom’s getaway this past weekend. Four of us shared a room and we had plenty of space and the beds were comfy. The lobby is nice with lounge area and gas fireplace. Front desk person was friendly as were the housekeepers. Morning staff super chipper! The hotel is perfectly located with restaurants, bars, Penn station, Madison square garden, Times Square and theaters all just steps away. We will definitely be back!

We stayed here for a quick Christmas gift trip for my kids and had the best time. Beautiful hotel, clean, quiet, kind staff, vending machine that sold ginger ale. Haha! The beds were incredibly comfy and we could see the Empire State Building from our window. Great location in walking distance to yummy food and sightseeing!

The location is fabulous but that is where it ended! During our 5 night stay we were moved 3 times due to issues with the bedrooms. I have emailed both the hotel and manager Eric for a copy of our room bill on multiple occasions as there was no one to check us out but none have been responded to. I would avoid this hotel at all costs.

Great location for the hotel. Handy for subway and getting anywhere. Hotel is really nice. No issues except it would have been nice to have a view out the window not just onto a wall. Luggage was able to be left til we needed to collect.

I honestly had a good time here. There are cons but the price point and decent amenities were nice. Pros - close to subway entrance! - close to Penn Station! - in koreatown! - they can store luggage after you check out at 11am! Cons - - small towels, do note if you are packin lmao - a little out dated but it's clean - slow elevators Overall housekeeping and checking in/out was a breeze. Decently sized for the price I paid. Regular amenities like shampoo, body wash, towels, full size hair dryer, ironing board/iron. There's tons of food options that are open late next to the hotel, super plus!! The lobby has 2 areas to chill with a tv and table in one section. Trash cans which is nice and a small gym next to the elevators on ground level.

Clean, walking distance from Madison Square Garden and surrounded with food options being in the heart of Koreatown.

This hotel at best was very marginal very basic false advertisement shows are very clean neat tidy room but the room we stayed in 1406 was on the 14th floor. There were no amenities no microwave no refrigerator without an additional cost of the bathroom toilet was making a very irritating noise. The windows were very dirty. The couch was very old. The furniture in fact was very old, next to the last day, they did not clean our room. We had to go from the 14th floor to the first floor two or three times get towels and washcloths and water. I spoke with the manager Arturo who did offer to take off the taxes and some other charges, but then they added charges back on the sales tax and then they try to recharge my card after I left the hotel thank God it was locked otherwise they would've been able to add those charges back after they agreed to take them off.

Booked through AAA.COM .. on arrival The Hotel at 5th Avenue tacked on an additional $23.00 as a resort fee .. Was told AAA.COM can book at whatever rate they want, their final rate is the only one that matters. I will never stay here again.

The hotel is old but I like that fact that it is in Korean town. Lots of place to eat, very close the the Harold's . The subways very close , I think there was 3 entrys/exits. I arrive to the hotel early I wasn't able to check in to my room but I was able to check in my luggage. check in at 3pm. Check out for the hotel is at noon. The staff there are friendly . I enjoy the waiting room, there's a cute fire place . There is plenty of outlets to charge your phone .

Nice location close to everything in midtown. The rooms are decent size by city standards, a little dated but clean and comfortable. The door man was extremely helpful and friendly holding my bags

I booked this hotel for a NYC vacation with me and my bf. The room is small which is to be expected for NYC but unfortunately there are other things that bothered me about this hotel. -The elevators are small and slow AF. Our room was on the 3rd floor so we often used the stairs. I also noticed the staff using these elevators too and often taking up space in it with their large bins; why do they not have a service elevator specifically for them so they don't take up space when guests need to go up to their rooms?! -The mattress is incredibly uncomfortable; I can tell it's a cheap foam mattress and when I sleep on my side I can feel the hard bed base below it. It's been impossible for me to sleep without waking up at least once or twice throughout the night. The pillows aren't the best eithe -There was a dead cockroach in the stairwell. We told somebody at the front desk about it and they never cleaned it up throughout our entire stay. -There's two chair's in the hotel room (one desk chair one regular chair) which normally I wouldn't mind but considering this room is incredibly cramped and tiny I had to shove the chairs to the side so we could walk around the bed. I wish they could simply take the chair out. -For some reason the dresser and desk draws WOULD NOT STAY SHUT. They kept floating open slowly over the course of a few minutes and it was annoying as hell to keep closing them The best thing about this hotel was its location; it's smack dab in midtown manhattan near the subway and Penn station which is incredibly convenient. Our room was pretty quiet at night too despite loud music being played below on the street. I'm guessing that was because our room faced another building further back and barely any light came in in the morning; the only light I see then is the hallway lights. Overall I probably wouldn't stay here again, I'd also try and find a hotel with a fridge and microwave so I could save my leftovers too.

Location is very convenient (near Times Square, and there is a subway station with 8 lines at the corner), hotel is kinda old and the rooms are small but comfortable and clean, with good AC. Personnel is courteous. If you arrive early, they will keep your luggage until check-in time (3 pm). The street outside is often crowded and full of Korean restaurants, but there are plenty of other options to eat all around.

Let me start off by saying that some of the inconveniences were beyond the Hotel's control like their system malfunctioning, the broken elevator, etc. Overall, the hotel was at a great spot. Lots of excellent restauraunts that are walking distant. Subway stations are nearby. Good for tourists. Room was pretty clean and cozy. The only issue I have were minor inconveniences, but we didn't let it ruin our trip. A week before my reservation I wanted to upgrade my room and was willing to pay the price but the representative on the phone was not able to book it. They were able to see the deluxe superior family room available on their system, but it wasn't working to complete the booking. So, there was a technical issue that caused an inconvenience. Also, the phone was not working so I was not able to call the front desk for towels or where to get ice. They also charged the room to the wrong card. I called a week prior to let them know I have a different card to use and that I will use the card when I check in. But they already processed the payment to the wrong card, so they had to refund, and it takes several days for that to complete. One out of two elevators during our weekend did not work so we had to wait an average 3 minutes for the next available elevator because there were a lot of people going to different floors. The highlight was how kind the staff was letting us store our luggage after our checkout. The room was clean. And the location for its price was unbeatable.

It's got to be difficult finding good people and operating a hotel these days so I'm hesitant to write anything bad. But this experience was so God awful I feel it's my duty to warn anyone that might stay here. I booked this room (at the very creatively named "The Hotel" on Hotels Tonight because it was less expensive (my mistake) the reviews were mid-range reviews so I figured I'd give it a shot. First, I asked for a quiet room and was given a dingy backroom facing an alley it reminded me of the movie "Seve" it was that dark and depressing. The carpeting was original from the 70s and looked like something from Liberace's wardrobe circa 1970. But I was exhausted and went to bed. I noticed id been charged an extra $15 so when I went to the receptionist the next morning to ask why the concierge would not even greet me and I had to say hello 3 times before she even looked up. and rolled her eyes. It felt as if I had asked her if she "came here often". She clearly did not want to be working here and was absolutely miserable. She then told me it was a guest fee and moved right on to the customer behind me. She proceeded to ignore any other questions. I'm pretty sure I would have had a better stay at Rikers and have been treated better by the guards there.

Enjoyed my stay. Great amenities, location, and staff. Appreciate that I could request a microwave and refrigerator for my week long stay.

I dont wanna make my review very long because this hotel cost me a lot of expenses & trouble. And bad feeling towards people. Yet i cant help it because i am hella pissed! FIRST - their hotel HAS A LOT OF HIDDEN FEES.- literally! Dont book thru booking.com & etc. You will get the fees once ur in front of them confirming your booking. 2ND- the size, looks, smell , service of their hotel was not even worth it to their price. It is NYC i understand the spaces was small! But come on?!? No toothbrush?, no toothpaste, no breakfast? the windows are open and cant be close so you can hear the entire street (korean town)getting wild with drunk people ... 3rd- the manager who cancelled our booking w/o noticed & the lady on front desk with shoulder length black hair was so rude and didn't even bother to pay attention when I said i have a concern and I need to talk to the manager. (In a nice way, i dont wanna attack first because i really want resolution). She said wait because the manager was with someone. I was in line waiting but she did not even bother to call me- NEXT ! but instead she called the newly lined up guy. SO RUDE so i forced myself to talk to the other guy who seems busy but had time to set aside and addressed my concerns. We ended up staying 1 night due to they cancel our booking w/o noticed and it was late 1am (late check-in) due to our chicago flight. We purchased the hotel booking 4months prior in a lesser price then after cancelling they want us to pay $275 in one night (all taxes inclusive). If that's the price i should've booked marriott & hilton for that price. We decided to just suck it up so we could at least have small time to sleep and deal with the messed they gave us. They next day we checked out & booked with marriott instead for the price they're asking us to pay! MORAL LESSON- NEVER SETTLE FOR LESS! You will end up paying more because they're only 2stars like a quick travelling motel.

This is the 4th time we've stayed at this hotel (2010, 2017, 2019, 2022). Each time we've flown in on a red eye, come straight to the hotel, dropped off our bags, then headed out for the morning before returning later in the day to check in. In the past, hotel staff was friendly and gracious, storing our bags in a utility room next to the check in counter. This morning, we arrived to an extremely unfriendly staff member who told us the hotel would not store our bags for us (despite the utility room still being right where it's always been), and told us our only option was to pay $120 for "early check in". We will not be back- there are too many other similarly priced hotels with equivalent or better amenities in Manhattan. Why stay where the staff is rude for no reason?

Absolutely disgusting service. Lieing, thieving and Absolutely rude. We were charged extra for no apparent reason. More money took without knowledge. Security deposits never been returned as promised. DO NOT STAY HERE. AVOID AT ALL COSTS We stayed with you from Tuesday 14th February to Tuesday 21st February. 2 Rooms, UNDER 2 Booking references We originally were booked in the hotel opposite. However, when we checked in, was told we had to stay with you as the owner owned both. Upon checking in, we were charged extra for security deposit. Since coming home you have charged our cards even more money with our knowledge. This is fraud and theft. Not to mention, upon checking out we were told we would be refunded the security deposits. This has not been done and we have been home 5 weeks now. Absolutely disgusted, your reviews online mention the same by others. Can we please at least have our security deposits refunded? BUT NO.. I don't want to have to get my attorney involved and proceed legal action. THIS HOW I FEEL WHAT IVE BEEN REDUCED TO. Can someone please get in touch, I have asked so many times and been ignored. I have called and no one has ever dealt with this. I am given excuses of needing to talk to someone else. NO ONE EVER DOES. This has ruined my holiday which was my wedding too. What should have been a happy time has been ruined. PLEASR AVOID AT ALL COSTSShow less Date of stay: February 2023

Right in the heart of Korea Town is a hidden hotel called the La Quinta Inn & Suites Manhattan. You probably walked by it and not even notice it. This former Aberdeen Hotel was the first hotels in 1920's to allow women to stay by themselves. Yes, the rooms are small, but perfect for a minimalist and tourists who just want a room to sleep overnight. Too much to do right outside of the hotel and in the heart of Herald Square with Madison Square Garden as well as Penn Station too. Lobby area is very contemporary and nice. Table with a computer and comfy chair where you can unwind and get some work done. Walk further down and see fire place and more areas to sit. Very quiet at this hotel when we checked in. Check in area is on the far left hand side when you enter and you will walk pass the Concierge table. Only $15 dollars for an upgrade to a King. The Queen was kind of small. What I enjoyed the most was the roof top bar on the 14th floor and they open at 4 PM. Get there early to grab a table. Check out the beautiful views of Empire State Building. Will be back again.

As a budget hotel in the heart of Koreatown, and just 10 blocks from the train station - this hotel is definitely worth 4 stars. Here's a run down from my stay... PROS * CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN. This hotel clearly prides itself on its cleanliness. The cleaning lady even double checked with me on my afternoon return to make sure I didn't need my room cleaned. (I had put the do not disturb card in because I didn't need anything cleaned, refilled, etc for the two nights I was there as a solo traveler). She was so sweet about it! * PRICE - I think that $200 for two nights in Manhattan is exceptional for a hotel. You're really not going to get anything less than that unless you're staying in a hostel, have reward points, or want to stay in a flop house. * LOCATION - one block south of the Empire State Building, this hotel is close to a number of things. The Morgan museum is only a few blocks away, you're 10 blocks from the bus station and Times Square. And you're smack in the midst of Koreatown. You're going to smell Korean barbeque if you stay here - so as long as you do not mind the smell of beef cooking you'll be pleased. * COMFORT - The bed and pillows (except for one which I pushed aside) were really comfortable. I slept well. And even being in "the back" of the hotel, I had plenty of light and view of the street (as much as you can have from the back of a hotel on the 10th floor) * WIFI - free and really reliable! CONS * SIZE - space anywhere in Manhattan is at a premium, so I can't really fault the hotel. My room was tiny. I was traveling solo, so it wasn't a problem, but room 1002 would be really uncomfortable for two adults with large luggage. Me with my one tiny roller bag and book bag - it was fine. * BREAKFAST - It was included free, but it really wasn't worth it. I checked it out and was not impressed. There was the basics: toasts, cereals, some fruit (bananas were browning) and the scrambled eggs were cold. The hard boiled eggs were really hard and rubbery. I opted for a banana on the second morning, but I recommend going out for something more tasty if breakfast is your favorite part of the day. Overall, I was pleased with my stay. I would definitely stay here again, and I probably will!

Standard hotel room but thankful the rooms weren't too small! Stayed here for 3 nights. The room in general was clean, so no complaints. Our family wanted to stay in KTown, and this is smack dab in the middle so location was perfect. Breakfast is included but wasn't anything worth eating. Would pass. Like everyone else said, the elevators and WiFi are slow.

Service is mediocre, cleanliness is intermediate. The quality generally is 3 stars. It is more expensive than it's neighooring hotels for what its worth. Location is great, but you could probably pay much less for a couple minutes of walking.

Assured me my deposit would be refunded, it was not. Left messages and never got through or called back. Terrible.

I forgot my room key and when I tried to ask the front desk person to open the door to explain my story, she was busy talking on the phone and laughing for about 5 minutes (i'm assuming with her friend) and was being extremely rude and was being talking on her phone.

I really enjoyed this hotel in the middle of KTown!! So beautiful inside and the front desk was kind and accommodating. The room was nicely sized and the bed was so comfy. The facilities fee ($40 for a half sized gym and a Folgers coffee machine) is a little bit much. I definitely recommend checking out the FAQ page of ANY hotel before booking because we were not aware of the facilities fee and state tax until arrival (as it is thrust upon at check in.)

I stayed at this La Quinta over New Year's weekend as well as the holiday itself and I gotta say... I was pretty impressed with this hotel! Going to New York City for New Year's seems like a daunting task, but with enough planning and decent accommodations, it can go off without a hitch. My friends and I booked 4 nights at this hotel FAR FAR in advance... like 8 or 9 months ahead of time... and it was well worth it. For about $125/night, we got an upper floor, 2 Queen bed room. This hotel is located in Korea Town and feels a bit hidden. If I hadn't been looking for it specifically , I probably would have walked right on by. The automatic sliding doors open up to a somewhat spacious main lobby with the front desk area to your left and plenty of seating with electric fireplaces straight ahead. The place was still decorated for Christmas, which gave it a warm, homey feel (except for the obvious construction going on towards the back of the building). Gazing just past this area we saw large plastic hanging up, plywood boards, ladders, paint cans, etc. Obviously they were going through some growing pains on our arrival, but it was clear each day as the landscape changed that they were actively working to finish their remodeling as quickly and as unobtrusively as possible. The room itself was great. Decent amount of space for a NYC hotel and featured amenities such as an iHome dock, flat-screen television, free wireless internet, coffeemaker, hair dryer, ironing board, alarm clock, and programmable safe. There was plenty of space for a working desk and even the bathroom was of good size. The mattresses resembled memory foam and I loved melting into it after long days and nights roaming the city. Our view was not the best, though we enjoyed seeing what kind of crappy day-time tv the businessman across from our window liked to watch on the job instead of doing real work. For the most part, the staff were on point in their service. Our housekeeper was very nice and super efficient when it came to turning our room around. The front desk could be hit or miss... check in/out went quite smoothly but when approached with things like suggestions for late night dining, faltered in providing us a viable option (which we found odd after discovering a restaurant open 24 hrs just steps from the front door and a pizza place that delivers very late around the corner). There is a rooftop bar on the "14th" floor with fantastic views of the Empire State Building. The location of the hotel is very convenient... close to much public transportation and within easy walking distance of Madison Square Garden, etc. I would definitely stay here again if in the city!

You'll get what you paid for. I stayed here for two nights; I did not book through them, and when I checked in, the price was different than advertised. Thank goodness, the person at the desk showed me my bill before I signed anything. He saw my confirmation email, and he said he could edit it right away to reflect the email. He asked me to send him that email so that his manager would not get mad, and I gladly did. The elevators are incredibly slow; they take forever to come. When I got to my room, the tv had lines in it, but who cares when the price is affordable and it's in a good location. Make sure to check your towels to make sure they're clean--mine still had a lipstick? stain on it.

Found this hotel last minute on HotelTonight. Was inexpensive and had good reviews, so thought I would give it a try. You get what you pay for. Room is adequate. 3-star property. Pros: Good location. If you need an inexpensive room and want to be in KoreaTown, it's perfect. Overall it was clean. Cons: Needs update. Carpet not the cleanest. Bed not the most comfortable. Not all of the outlets in the room worked. Service was mediocre. Front desk person forgot to activate my key, so had to go back to front desk to activate it. I asked to use a restroom to change when I was picking up my luggage. Man who had gotten my luggage (not a bellman, maybe a repairman?) told me I needed a key, but didn't offer to get it. The concierge was on his personal cell phone and uninterested and told me to talk to the front desk. Front desk worker who was working with another guest and could not multitask and answer a question while working on a reservation question had me waiting for almost 10 minutes (was trying to catch a train so watching time). Eventually I gave up and changed at train station.

Double charged me and would not refund. Awful money-grubbing service. STAY AWAY FROM HERE!

Room windows leak water, receptionist phone didn't work, one of the two elevators in the building doesn't work and the one that does work takes over 10 minutes to go up and down 10 floors. Avoid at all costs.

I have not stayed here but highly recommend the rooftop for an amazing view. Even if you don't drink, there are nonalcoholic options available. And that view! The service is nice enough and the vibe is very laid back and relaxed. Like someone's backyard except for the Empire States building.

Stayed here for 2 nights and 3 days. Over all good experience. Extremely small room but I guess that's New York. Free WiFi AND breakfast bar ; both quality. Parking garage is also about a 2 min walk from the hotel and located right in Koreatown. Some great food spots nearby and also a good distance to Times Square. All workers were kind too, from cleaning service to front desk. Heater in the room is loud but works really well. My only thing is we did find a condom wrapper on the floor... besides this fact I would totally stay here again.

The rooms are very small,but clean. The breakfast was not so good although it was free. The location was great, and there are many resturants in the area. I must mention that the best part was the ladies that clean the room. They were so polite, and very personable. People often over look them, but honestly they are the heart of the hotel, and work very hard to accommodate.

I came into town to visit in New York City for a couple weeks and decided to stay at the La Quinta since I'm rewards member with them.. However my couple of stays that we're book there I was overcharged twice. The manager tried to say my room smell like weed and I asked him how did he indicate my room smelled like weed.. I don't even smoke. The lady at the front desk proceeded to tell me that the man walked into my room and seen someone smoking in my bathroom and then switched her story saying that he came to the room and it smelled like weed. right away I told her her story did not sound right and they were out of line for double charging my card.. I understand that a lot of hotel rooms in New York City are non-smoking but at the end of the day for me to feel like the manager and staff at this hotel violated my privacy, came into my room when I was not in my room and snooped around makes me feel uncomfortable and I will never stay here again.. How do I know he wasn't digging around in my panty bag or sniffing my shoes?? Just completely creepy never again!!

I recently stayed at this hotel for 4 nights and while there were a few contra, I still think that it is worth a 4-stars rating. First of all, our room on the 12th floor was impeccably clean. It is true that the rooms are very small but this is NYC and larger hotel rooms come with a much higher price. Unfortunately we stayed there during the graduation week when most of the hotels are booked to capacity so the room rate was higher than expected and we ended up paying circa $1,300 for our entire stay of four nights. The elevator is incredibly slow and the room did not even have a complimentary bottle of water- something that most hotels do nowadays. Furthermore, the VU bar located on the 14th floor was closed- something that should have been disclosed upon booking. This hotel is also very stingy with the bath amenities. On the first night we felt that only one set of soap, shampoo and conditioner was too little for two people but luckily we had some travel-sized shampoo in our luggage. When our room was made the following day, the amenities kit was not replaced and we had to go downstairs to ask for it- a pattern that repeated itself over the following days of our stay. The complimentary WiFi was so slow that it took a while to check our work-related emails or even do a simple restaurant search online. The hotel is located in a very central area not far from the metro station and the Empire State Building. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Right in the heart of Koreatown. You could blink and totally miss this place. Pleasant stay here, only one night but It was comfortable, room clean and spacious. Good deal through booking.com. Arrived really late but received excellent service from front desk. Got what I paid for, breakfast was included and pretty basic but fine. Lift is really slow so best to leave your room early if you are taking the lift down. Location is great as really close to the Empire State Building and good walking distance to other tourist attractions. Would stay again.

Hotel was OK. It's a more affordable option in a decent location. Room was clean but limited amenities. No coffee available at hotel despite website stating coffee in room. Elevator is very slow. Hotel was quiet though and the bed was decent. Overall the stay was fine, but next time I'm in the area, I'll look for something different.

We followed a lot of advice including that of ny yelpers and really enjoyed our 3 nights here. We walked to everything (or hopped the nearby subway) and the while the rooms were small and somewhat outdated (maybe on purpose) we were glad to put our money elsewhere. For our purposes it was great. The rooftop bar is great, as is the bartender Julian.

So, unfortunately, when my husband makes hotel arrangements, I've learned to be a bit skeptical. However, I was pleasantly surprised by his selection of La Quinta Inn & Suites. Our main goal for this New York trip was to see Phish for two nights at Madison Square Garden. This hotel is a very easy less than 10 minute walk from The Garden, so if you're int he city for the sole purpose of seeing a show (or game), this is a great choice. Not only is it a short walk, there's one direction "Just turn right, and you'll hit it!" (True.) I have stayed at another nearby hotel (Hotel Pennsylvania) and was disgusted...not so here. La Quinta Inn & Suites was clean and comfortable, but yes-- the rooms are tiny. Then again, this is NYC -- you shouldn't be spending too much time in your room! It hit all the marks I cared about: -Check in was easy, and the person helping us, Tom, was delightful and extra-friendly. Shout out to him. -The lobby is small but cozy. It was winter and they had the fire roaring and free hot chocolate. There is free wifi that was very reliable and fast and there are also computers in the lobby you can use. All of the passwords you need are provided at check-in. -Elevators were nice enough, but it is quicker to take the stairs -Breakfast is just eh- it's good for a bite to hold you over (some cereal, waffles, donuts, bagels) before you head out for the day. If you're like me and wake up super early, it's a good hold-over snack until the rest of your crew is ready for real breakfast! -The room was small and the most notable flaw was no refrigerator. That made it tricky when we returned from dinner with leftovers and realized we didn't have one....so we just ate it again. Perhaps if we had asked at the desk, they would have stored them in the fridge for us. The bed was memory foam and quite heavenly. The TV was large and swiveled towards the bed. The shower was clean (I'm quite picky!) and had plentiful hot water and good pressure. There was a closet with safe, iron, hairdryer, etc, the basis (minus fridge) -The cool part of the location is that even though it's so close to everything touristy (Herald Square, etc), it is located in Koreatown. If you haven't explored it, you should. There are lots of cool little Korean beauty shops and interesting food galore! -There is a rooftop bar that is supposed to have a nice view of the Empire State Building but unfortunately it was closed when we went up to it. Housekeeping was respectful and left us alone (we left the do not disturb on the door the whole time.) It was really cute, one time I came out and saw one of the cleaning women and she was so concerned that we didn't have enough towels and gave us more (We were fine, but it was still nice.) When we checked out, they immediately called us to let us know we had left a sweater. Overall, this place is not big and glamorous, but it is clean, friendly, efficient, and convenient. If you are on a budget and need to stay near midtown, I recommend it!

I really like this hotel because it's cheap and clean especially in New York. We stayed here March 2010, it's located in Korea town. We thought it would be located in a bad area since it was cheap but actually It was safe. The location was close to many things, walking distance. We stayed up most the nights and most places were 24/7. crazy! I'm surprised that there were no bugs or anything, the hotel was a good size for two people. The best part is the complimentary breakfast, I think it goes from 7 to 10am. Their roof bar is not the greatest, so don't go there ;) Enjoy New York!

This was my second time staying at La Quinta Manhattan. The first time it was for me and my boyfriend, a couple the room was VERY small but the price was ok considering the great location and convenience. The second time I stayed with my family the room was decent size for a double room in NYC. The room wasn't so clean. So spiderweb on the lights and ceiling l, in addition the door wasn't closing properly and I could continuously hear the neighbors with he very thin walls. Also, they charge me extra $15 per night per person for having three guests in a DOUBLE room. I stay in a lot of hotels and is common knowledge to know the maximum allowed people perk double bed room is FOUR. The breakfast is getting simpler every time. I don't believe I will be staying again, there are plenty of of other hotels in the area with similar offerings with lower rates. Last, I don't see the big deal with the rooftop bar is VERY simple and the Happy Hour drinks are a mix of very cheap alcohol that taste like gasoline. Don't spend your money or time there. Way better rooftop bars around the area. TRUST me!

I love this hotel! My boyfriend & I stay here for New York Comic Con every year. It's only two blocks from Penn Station and a 20 minute walk from the Javitz Center. There's also a subway station on the corner. The rooms are small, but that's expected in NYC. Besides, if you're in NYC, you won't be spending all that much time in the hotel anyway, right? The beds are SO COMFORTABLE. I actually looked up to see if the memory foam mattresses they use are for purchase. Especially considering how much our bodies ache from walking around the convention floor all day, I wake up feeling so refreshed. There's free breakfast every morning which is very convenient. There's a large seating area for eating. They have both hot & cold breakfast items. There's also a roof top bar. I've only been once. It's a small space, but it's got a pretty cool view of the Empire State Building. Relaxed setting. The employees are VERY nice. Since the first time we stayed here, I was so impressed with how friendly the staff were. There was only one time we went & the woman checking us in was very short with us - caught me off guard since I wasn't expecting it from all the other good experiences we had. My only complaint is that there are only two small, slow elevators. With that said, I would try to time your arrival/departure around the typical check-in/check-out times. With all that said - this is my first choice for a hotel when staying in mid-town Manhattan. I'm hoping the rates continue to be affordable (under 240/night Columbus Day weekend) so we won't have to stay anywhere else.

Horrible place to stay. The rooms are small and the breakfast was bread and juice. The fitness center didn't have attachments for the equipment.

Eh. Like the reviews say, you get what you pay for. It is very coNveniently located but is nothing fancy and has really no amenities. We were soaked from the rain and I asked to use a dryer for our clothes and was promptly told "no" with zero empathy for the situation. Receptionist seemed super moody. The cleaning staff however was super friendly so we made sure we tipped.

*This review is for the rooftop bar only* Smack in the middle of K-town, I would never have expected there'd be a rooftop bar on top of a La Quinta. Went here late on a Thursday night and it was really casual with a nice view of the Empire State Building. Really low key, the perfect nightcap after a night of debauchery.

Hotel staff are all friendly and I feel comfortable and safe the moment I walk into my room. The location is great if you love Asian food. Hot pot and barbecue Korean grill is just steps away from the hotel. Few minutes walk to Penn station and port authority. The day you check out they offer that you can leave your bags/luggage for the whole day free of charge if you want to explore NYC.

This hotel, located in the heart of Korea Town, presents itself as high-end but sadly isn't all that good. The rooms are small, but nice and clean. We didn't have shampoo in our room so we had ask for that. "Complimentary" breakfast was terrible. The space is too small to have all guests sit and eat. Trying to get something to eat was a challenge. The quality of the food was low. The coffee was ok. The vending machines seemed permanently out-of-order.

Love love loves this place. Very friendly staff and it was in the perfect location for site seeing. Wish the roof top bar was still open.

Based on some of the reviews that are on here, we weren't exactly sure what to expect. Here is my take on it: 1. It is located in the heart of everything. We were able to walk to Central Park and down to Battery Park with no issues and the places in between. 2. The room is very small compared to the other La Quintas that we have been to in the Midwest. However, it was very clean and tidy. The view from our room was non-existent unless you like staring at an alley and the backside of other buildings. 3. We were upcharged an extra $15 dollars a day for an extra person. But, based on the location, the $105 a night including the upcharge was acceptable for us. 4. The staff was friendly towards us and never felt as if we bothering them. 5. There are several eating places as soon as you walk out of the door from different parts of the world. We tried them all. In closing, I would stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay that's very convenient to everything.

Automatic 1 star for the hidden resort fee. I always book hotels on priceline so I know how much a resort fee will be (if any.) I purposely booked this hotel because it was close to Penn and had no resort fee. When I checked in I was charged a 20$ resort fee. I told the guy this was not my Priceline itinerary. He said the price is in the policy section which I checked and it was NOT. I had somewhere to be so I didn't have time to argue. There was nothing extra included with this hotel to charge such a fee. No water in the room. The condiments package for coffee was already open. The room was okay but I would never stay here again.

Hotel is located in the heart of Koreatown right next to the Empire State Building - excellent location. Short walk to Times Sq., 5th Ave, Rockefeller Center, etc. Hundreds of food and drink options right outside the door, along with very cute asian cosmetic and skin care shops. Subway station to the red & yellow line on the same block which is super convenient. The hotel itself was great. We stayed in a 2 queen bed/non smoking room for 6 nights and had no complaints. Clean, fresh sheets and towels, clean restroom, and overall clean room. Beds were comfortable, room equipped with free wifi, and TV's had lots of channels to watch after a long, tiring day in the city. Front desk cleaning crew, and bellhop were all very nice, welcoming, and hospitable. The lady at concierge however, was not. Came to her twice for help. First time to ask where to stand to wait for bellhop, second time to get more information about their laundry service. Both times, she inaudibly mumbled something under her breath, waved her hand around and pointed at front desk. My apologies for interrupting her in the middle of her selfie session on her phone, but we were aimlessly wandering around the lobby looking for the little room to store our luggage - and thought she would know...being the concierge and all. Anyways, I took my questions to the lady at front desk and she was very kind and helpful. Overall, La Quinta Inn is a great hotel in a great location and I would stay again. Just avoid the lady with big, brown, curly hair sitting at the concierge table.

Located in Korea town , staff pleasant , clean room, $30 parking for each day , free continental breakfast , rooftop bar, 20min walk from Times Square, small room but still pretty comfortable , ice machine on every even number floor , bed was very comfortable as were the pillows.

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL!!! UNSAFE AND HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE These people are extremely shady. I reserved a Non-Smoking room with a King, confirmed it, but when I arrived for my trip, they tried to give me a Queen room hoping I wouldn't notice. When I inquired 15 minutes later, I was treated very rudely and told they would only charge me the Queen room price as if that was doing me a favor. If I don't show up for the reservation or do not cancel within their 24 hour policy, I would get charged because they were holding the room. Yet, when I reserve a room, they couldn't hold it for me. Why doesn't that work both ways? Also, housekeeping left our door open after their cleaning. Not sure how long it was open/unlocked, but our belongings were left vulnerable to the entire hotel for hours. The staff could care less about the guests or their safety. Tried to file a concern with management and was told that not everyone gets what they request - meaning Non-smoking and a KING. And they would give me a free upgrade the next time I stayed? How does that make ANY sense. I was FORCED to downgrade, but they will offer me a free upgrade "next time." They couldn't give me the room I "reserved" but next time they will give me a better room at no additional charge. And here I thought that was the point of a reservation. I don't think it was too much to ask. I didn't ask for a specific floor or room placement. I simply reserved a NON-SMOKING room with a KING bed. PLENTY of other hotels in NYC, I highly recommend looking elsewhere for a room if you are wanting honesty and SAFETY.
