Beware the bar ... they whack on a non-optional 20 percent service charge on drinks, and then also leave the tip box open and hope you won't notice. A sneaky habit.

Excellent location. Our room had a view overlooking Lincoln Center...ideal as we merely walked across the street to see our daughter perform with American Ballet Theatre at the Metropolitan Opera House. Would have enjoyed a coffee-maker in the room. Far and away better than the hotels we stayed at on previous visits. In evening bedding turned down and cookie treat left on night stand. Terry cloth robes, umbrella available for use. More space would be available in room if chose room with one bed rather than two (this 2-bed room was available to occupy on our early arrival).

Great location, nice lobby, rooftop garden. Shower was bad. It was confusing and did not have a door over the whole shower. When I turned it onit sprayed all over the bathroom.

Lovely decor, good location, good choice of bars, we stayed in a junior suite which was very nice. Overall I'd recommend this hotel.

Interiors are recently renovated, very modern and stylish, although I'm personally not a great friend of the dark brown color scheme. Rooms are very nice but small. You can't find the floorspace to do some push-ups in either their one-queenbed or even a two-queenbed room. You can't get breakfast at the hotel, but there are plenty of options within a block. The rooftop pool not warm and very small, though the views are nice there. The nightclub crowd is going to like this hotel 'cause as a guest you get in the VIP line into the pretty cool bar/nightclub with a retractable roof on top. Thu-Sat nights there's a long line of non-guests waiting to get in.

Great, cool high-design hotel and super location. Nice old style New York Hotel, upgraded to new cool design, fabulous beds, super sheets, great ambiance of the hotel and an outstanding location for leisure travelers and business.

I was shocked to see a 20% service charge for drinks for 4 people. 10-15% is standard. Wine glasses were not changed in the rooms. Had to call several times(we were there 5 days) for new wash clothes and bath mat. Tiny rooms, no storage space, bathroom tiny as well. Much prefered the Chambers Hotel, but this was more convenient to where our son lived. We would not recommend at the price we paid.

Nice public space. Good location. Small room. It was generally a nice place to stay but the room and especially the bathroom were small. The cleaning staff kept knocking on the door despite our having a don't disturb sign up. Toiletries were not replaced one of the days.

The rooms are small but roomy, spotlessly clean. The staff is helpful, polite, and a real joy to interact with. You can't beat this location for restaurants, transportation, or entertainbment (Lincoln Center is acccross the street). Outstanding!

The Empire Hotel was inviting and chic. The staff was helpful, the lounge area was stunning and the ambiance was great. Although the room was a bit small, the furniture was very comfortable. The location was excellent as it was near restaurants, the subway and the Lincoln Center!

Great location, helpful staff, very nicely decorated. The room was a little small. It was very nice for the price (vermin and a shared bathroom.) I thought it was decorated very nicely and was happy to bring my friends up to show them the room when they came to get me. They had lemon verbena L'Occitane toiletries. I did not like the lounge upstairs, not our kind of place, but we had one drink, checked out the views, and left.

I stayed at the Empire New York while in the city on business and it was very close to my destination. It's easy to get to and it's not a high rise (which I prefer if possible). Lincoln Center is literally across the street. The room was very clean and modern. It seemed bigger than some of the other hotels I've stayed at in NYC. The bed was super comfortable. The shower was a bit small, but it did the job. The bar looked nice and there were lots of tables if you wanted a quieter place to talk. I'd definitely go back again.

We found this hotel to be perfect for our first New York stay. It is centrally located near Central Park, Lincoln Center and is only a short cab ride to the theater district. The staff was great and accomodated our every wish. The room was comfortable and the bed was great. The bath was a little cramped but given that this hotel was first built in the '20s it was fine. My only complaint was that the AC didn't keep the room cool enough at night. Often I slept on top of the bed instead of in it. There is no real in hotel food services but PJ Clarke's next door was a real plus. Room service could be had however.

The restaurants and bars on site were amazing. The rooms were a bit small. The hotel is a wonderful and charming accommodation. The staff was always friendly and incredibly helpful. The restaurants, bars, and room service options almost entirely eliminate any need or desire for outside dining. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable, if a bit small.

The Empire was at Lincoln Center which was centrally located in Manhatten Our room was small but had a desk and sitting area. The King size bed was very comfortable with first class bedding. Only dining was breakfast buffet on the top floor . Fortunately PJ Clarks was next door. We appreciated having an umbrella provided since it rained all weekend.We would definitely stay here again. Housekeeping did a great job and the bedtime cookies were a great treat.

Great location & funky. Very small rooms. Very funky and cool hotel. Small rooms with very limited space. Not good for business travel.

This hotel's location is what sold us but the property and staff. I would recommend a Junior Suite as the standard room is a bit small.

Food was impeccable. Check in was a bit rude. No detail has been overlooked in this decadently beautiful hotel. The rooms are small as would be expected in a New York hotel but beautifully done and the food at The Center Cut is not to be missed.
