Wolcott Hotel

Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit dem Hotel. Sauber und gefplegt. Sehr nahe am Times Square. Metro auch direkt vor Ort.

This hotel is ideally situated for all the attractions, Hotel was fine - clean and lovely coffee and muffins for breakfast. Room wasn't very big but as we only slept there it was not a problem. Only downside it was too hot. Would definitely stay here again.

Room was smaller than in the photos on the hotel web site. No view from window as there was an air conditioner placed in it. Overall room was clean but next time would request a room change.

This is a perfect 3 star hotel. It's very traditional with lots of gold around the hotel. It was a stones throw away from the Empire State Building. It was so close that we had to make sure our curtains were closed at night as the glow from the top shone through. The view from our window was incredible with the Empire State in all it's glory. It was also very close by to Madison square garden which is handy if your going to see the Knicks, GO KNICKS!! If you look at a map I would say the Wolcott is pretty much central in downtown manhattan. It is right in the middle between Central Park and say ground zero. We walked every day up as far as central and yes it's a lot of walking but you do want to see everything on the way. The hotel rooms were perfect with a big flat screen tv on the wall. The rooms were always heated and never once cold. The were always tidy and never saw any dirt around. The bathroom was also clean and fairly standard although it did take a long time for the hot water to warm up. Wifi was cheap although signal in the room wasent great but down stairs in the lobby it was perfect and we used Skype for back home a lot and worked with no issues. In summary the Wolcott hotel is not a five star hotel however we did not want a five star hotel. The only time we spent in the hotel was when we went to sleep. With that in mind we decided to choose this over a more expensive hotel and spend the money we saved else where. The Wolcott is similar to a premier in but much fancier, it does exactly what it says on the tin. It is lovely accommodation, great value for money and ideally located. Book with confidence you won't be dissapointed. The attached photo is the view from our window with no zoom. What you see is what you get!!! Breath taking

Das Hotel hat ein sehr gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis, ist zentral gelegen, ideal um die Stadt zu erkunden, die Zimmer waren eher klein aber zweckmässig. Genau wie wir es erwartet haben. Wir waren schon das zweite mal da und werden wiederkommen!

Das Hotel ist nur wenige Meter entfernt vom Empire State Building und somit perfekt gelegen. Wir hatten eine Junior Suite, die zwar nicht sehr stylisch war, dafür grosszügig mit zwei Zimmer. Das Bett war erstaunlich bequem. Das Zimmer wurde sehr gut geheizt. Das Thekenpersonal war sehr zuvorkommend.

Got a great rate in a great location just a few walkable blocks from Penn Station. Small but clean room. Only two complaints -- really bad tv picture, barely watchable, and the room was VERY hot -- the heating definietly works (was an unusually mild December night). But the windows do open, and with the help of staff I did figure out how to reduce the heat (old style circulating water heat), so just an hour or two of mild discomfort. Well worth it!

Lage bestens: je knapp 5 Minuten zur U-Bahn und zum Empire State Building, Alles war okay!

Everything ok, - Sehr günstiges Preis/Leistungsverhältnis - Sauber - Freundliches Personal - Doppelzimmer sind 2 Zimmer (aber ohne Trenntür, trotzdem gut für Schnarcher :-)) - Es gibt auch Raucher-Zimmer. Die sind aber so gut gelüftet, dass man meint, man hätte ein Nichtraucher-Zimmer - Morgens Kuchen und Kaffee in der Lobby (besser das Tablett aus dem Zimmer mit nach unten nehmen und oben frühstücken, weil in der Lobby nur sehr wenige Plätze) - Wir werden unsern nächsten NY-Aufenthalt defenitiv wieder dort buchen.

We reserved a non-smoking room, however, upon checkin were told that "non-smoking" was merely a REQUEST and not a given. We were placed in a smoking room and the lingering stale tobacco got to be just too much. We were then placed in another smoking room (they didn't have any non-smoking rooms available) which didn't smell as bad. Unfortunately at 6 am we smelled aweful, ethnic food odors wafting up the central air shaft and permeating our room. I went down to the front desk and was informed that not only were about half the floors in the hotel dedicated to smokers, but they also had permanent residents and it was likely one of them cooking. They did eventually change our room to a non-smoking room, facing 31st. Despite the significant street noise (we slept with the TV on) and the difficulty regulating the temperature in the room, we were so elated to have a room which was palatable. I would be hard pressed to stay there again tho.
