| This small hotel gets top marks for comfortable beds and pillows! It is a great place to relax after a long day of travel. Good location downtown; an easy walk to the subway station. Close to South Street Seaport and the discount ticket booth. Front desk was helpful and the (included) breakfast was tasty with fresh breads and rolls. Bathroom was spotless and the room was tastefully decorated. Will consider this my new hotel of choice for trips to NYC> |

| The rooms are great but the hotel location is not really good. Is far from the center (is in the south, skyscrapers and bussines area). You always have to take the metro and it takes at least 1 or 2 days to understand how to use it. Very good breakfast, mainly in weekends (croisants, baggels, cereals, fruit, american coffee, tea, butter, cheese cream ...) |

| This was one of the most enjoyable experiences I have ever had in a hotel. Given the location, I assume that the hotel caters to a business clientele. I was there on a weekend in part because of the reduced weekend rate, but I believe that the hotel gives good value even at a higher rate. |

| We often visit our daughter in NYC and usually stay at her place. She as well as her two roomates were graduating from law school and couldn't accommodate everyone who was coming from out of town. After some research we found The Wall Street Inn. Our daughter went and checked it out and loved it. It is very quaint and comfortable. It has a European atmosphere and reminded us of the hotel we stayed in when we were in Paris. The front desk personnel was very friendly. The room was clean and nicely decorated. We enjoyed our stay and exploring the Wall Street area. Lots of good restaurants and interesting sites in the area. It was very close to the metro subway station. We certainly recommend it and will stay there again! |

| My girlfriend and I (as a Christmas gift from my husband) spent the weekend in NYC and stayed at the Wall Street Inn. I had read reviews prior to placing my reservation, and the experience was even better than we had hoped. The front desk staff was helpful and friendly. The room was beautiful with a lovely bathroom. There was plenty of room with a king bed and a small table with two comfortable chairs by the window. No view to speak of but we were not there for a view. The mattress and sheets were high quality and the color scheme very nice. And it was all spotless! Breakfast was excellent-pastries, bagels, toast, eggs, and cereal. They left the uneaten breakfast pastries out on the sideboard (covered) and it was nice to come back late both nights to a cup of tea and a sweet snack! There were several subway stations nearby and the Whitehall station-can't remember the line now-carried us straight to a bus station close to Laguardia. We shopped at the nearby Century 21 and bought our discount play tickets at the downtown TKTS location. Very convenient. Overall, it was a great hotel and a great value. We would definitely stay there again! |

| We stayed on a weekend arriving Sat. afternoon and checking out on Sun. AM. We did not take advantage of the included continental breakfast that is offered off the lobby, but it looked fine. The surrounding area is very quiet on weekends, so if you are looking for night life you need to travel a short distance by subway to other areas. Subway stops are conveniently located, as is a parking garage which is directly across the street. South Street Seaport is a few short blocks away. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again. The room was spacious, clean and elegantly appointed; the staff helpful and courteous. |

| It may look a little scary from the outside (it's in an alleyway), but once you get inside it is so beautiful and ellegant! I recommend this hotel 100%! |

| Great hotel - extremely clean, good value, and close to all the lower Manhattan tourist attractions, like the Statue of Liberty and the Museum of the American Indian. Very safe neighborhood. One tip: take a printout of the map showing its location, since taxi drivers have trouble finding this small street. |

| Having stayed @ NY hotels previously my expectation levels weren't too high. I have to say how pleasantly surprised I was. The standard of the hotel and rooms was both very high and the location was fantastic. I had seen other reviews mention the noise in the hotel, but I can't imagine how this would ever be the case. The small parade of cafe/restaurants that were closest to the hotel weren't of that nature at all! Would definitely stay again and recommend to others! |

| My friend and I stayed one night at the Wall Street Inn and we loved it. It was very quiet and elegant and we enjoyed it very much. The room was clean and beautiful in fact I think the bed was about the most comfortable hotel bed I've ever slept in. Our window looked out over a small cobbled street with a little pedestrian traffic and a bakery, so unlike what you usually see in New York. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone going to the city and hope to stay there again. For the price it was perfect. |

| The hotel was fine for what I needed, room was clean and location was perfect but the staff are not friendly, breakfast is very basic, gym/sauna etc are all switched off and in more of a store room than a health facility but that said again the hotel met what I needed....nice bar just beside the hotel Ulysees, close to subway and close to battery park (cruises, nice park, statue of liberty view etc) |

| We enjoyed our stay in this hotel and the Financial district in general.The hotel is in a good position although our driver (Super Shuttle) really struggled to find it-My tip always use a Yellow cab!Our room was very nice the only problem being it was located at the back of the property which faced on to a street with a number of bars which were very noisy in to the night-ask for a front facing room. The free breakfast was v nice and totally unexpected. Staff very friendly and helpful. I would quibble with the free internet service though as we were charged for access to the Business room. My second tip- visit the South Seaport area (think that's what it's called)-very close and a lovely location for a drink, meal or a general wander. I would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone-it's a great base to explore lower Manhattan-9/11 site/Liberty Island/Battery Park/Walk the Brooklyn Bridge/Wall Street. In fact having later stayed in Upper Manhattan I think I would stay here again and commute up to Time Square area to see the main sights. You must do the Staten Island ferry-great view of Lady Liberty-and for free. However don't make the mistake we made and assume there is anything happening in the ferry area at Staten Island when you get off - there isn't-just get back on the ferry you came in on. |

| Lovely little hotel nestled in a quiet street just off Wall St and the Staten Island ferry. Very close to subway system. Hotel is sympthatically decorated in a colonial style, very homely. There is a lovely little cobbled street behind with a few bars/restaurants and Delmonicos is directly across the road. I would go back to this hotel. I know that it doesn't have glitzy views of Manhattan but after a very busy day it's a great enviroment to relax in. |

| This hotel is a true gem! The staff were super, the room very tastefully appointed, the public areas very comfortable and the business office very handy. This is a perfect place to stay in NYC on the weekends. |

| Good weekend price for an excellent Manhattan place. Price stated as "total price" still does not include taxes, which is always surprising for international travelers. AC probably has to be regarded as quiet with respect to the American standard level of noise. Otherwise very quiet. |

| This ist the best New York deal you can get - on a weekend, when rates drop to 170 Dollars. Question: What else would you get for 170 Dollars in Manhattan? It's a charming boutique hotel with all the amenities you'd expect from a four-star-hotel. It's a quiet, cozy place, close to the subway (Wall Street station, five minutes to Tribeca and Soho) with a perfect pub (Ulysses) on the other side of the street. Loved it and will definitely come back. Even in the week, when rates explode. |

| Front desk staff rude, not friendly or helpful. Did not know surrounding area (restaurants). The hotel was not busy at all, not willing to upgrade us when asked to be. Our room was on the noisy side of the hotel. |

| Stayed here for business and was very convenient. At night can get a little loud as it backs up to some restaurants, but overall a great hotel at a great price. Close to the Wall Street subway station as well. Would recommend! |
