    The spacious room, great bathroom, and central location made up for thin walls and minor issues. Perfect for theatre lovers exploring New York City. Sunday brunch was divine. I'd return for the memorable experience!

    Knickerbocker boasts an excellent location, spacious rooms, and friendly staff. the St Cloud rooftop bar offers great views and delicious cocktails. the hotel's cleanliness and service quality are outstanding, ensuring a relaxing stay in the city.

    Room was spacious with a killer view, big bathroom, and comfy bed, loved the location right by the subway. Appreciated the free water bottles in the room and the excellent wifi. Only bummer was a bit of black mold in the bathroom, but nothing too crazy - just need better ventilation 🗽.

    The hotel is in a prime location for Broadway shows and Times Square. Rooms are spacious and quiet, with large bathrooms. Some minor issues like window cleanliness and missing amenities, but the staff is friendly and attentive. The rooftop bar is a highlight. Great for a family visit.

    staying at Knickerbocker was a delight. the location in the heart of Times Square was perfect for exploring. the room was soundproof, with blackout blinds for a good night's sleep. the staff were incredibly helpful, and the in-room gadgets like mood lighting and a powerful shower added to the experience. i also loved the coffee shop in the lobby.

    Don’t have any issues at all 😊

    The location in the heart of Times Square. The quiet. Size of the room (suite). Very comfortable bedding. The bathroom (huge shower) and Dyptique products.

    Breakfast at Le Jack, really not worthy of a 5-star hotel, nor of a 4-star hotel: no buffet, just 1 drink (hot or cold), one bread (burger or bagel) and one dessert (fromage blanc or fruit) per person to be taken at the bar. Unpleasant staff, uncleaned tables, and above all few or no seats at all (café open to outsiders).

    The staff at The Knickerbocker were always polite and extremely helpful, making our stay pleasant. The breakfast package was good value with a variety of choices each morning, and the use of the hotel car was convenient. The sound-proof windows and blackout drapes were fantastic for relaxation. The hotel's proximity to landmarks like Times Square and the Empire State Building added to the experience, creating great family bonding moments exploring the city.

    Its location in Times Square

    Breakfast was included but it is a special breakfast called express breakfast which is not up to the standard of the hotel. There is no indication at the time of booking.

    Compared to my previous stays, the service at this hotel was exceptional. the staff was friendly and accommodating, offering assistance with tours and ticket arrangements. the spacious room had a fantastic view of Times Square, making it a perfect spot for a girls' trip. the location was ideal, being close to various attractions like Rockefeller Center and the Empire State Building. the customer service was top-notch, adding great value to the overall experience.

    One area for improvement could be the temperature regulation in the rooms, as it was a bit challenging to adjust to a comfortable level. Some guests might find the high pillows uncomfortable and struggle with the lighting setup in the room.

    Recently stayed at a luxe spot near Central Park and Empire State. Ate fab food by a top chef, tried a fitness class by a Knicks player, and chilled at a rooftop lounge with live jazz. Even got some cool Valentine's swag. Room was sleek, cozy, and had a sweet roll-in shower. Location was prime for exploring. The chic minimalist design was on point. Loved the family-friendly vibe and the convenient services offered. Can't wait to go back for more scuba diving adventures!

    My friends and I had the most epic time in NYC, staying at an awesome hotel. The place had luxurious surroundings with super chill vibes. The high-speed WiFi was clutch for those Insta-worthy posts. We explored Nolita, a neighborhood that was fresh and hella fun, feeling like we'd stumbled into a cool secret spot. And ice skating at Bryant Park was lit, owning those rink vibes like a boss!

    Yo, if there was one thing I'd ask for, it'd be an even bigger hangout spot for young party-goers. Like, picture a rooftop DJ or a dope club in the hotel - that would be off the charts!

    The posh atmosphere and luxurious amenities made me feel like a queen. The onsite dining by Chef Palmer and fitness program by Larry Johnson were top-notch, ensuring I didn't have to lift a finger.except to eat and exercise, of course.

    No tea or coffee maker in the room. how am I supposed to function without my morning caffeine fix?

    I chose this hotel for attending a convocation because it provides a convenient location, allowing guests to arrive at work meetings on time without worrying about transportation. The staff was attentive and provided helpful suggestions, ensuring a smooth business trip experience.

    I did encounter an issue with the electric shade in my room, which hindered my ability to create a completely dark environment for work purposes.

    During my recent business trip at The Knickerbocker in New York, I was thoroughly impressed with the hotel's services. The concierge services were exceptional, providing me with helpful recommendations and arranging my transportation seamlessly. The gym and health club usage were convenient and well-maintained, allowing me to stick to my fitness routine while away. Additionally, the restaurant and food/beverage services were top-notch, offering delicious meals and a pleasant dining experience. The gift shop also had a great selection of unique items to bring home as souvenirs. the variety and quality of the amenities made my stay comfortable and enjoyable.

    Roof terrace was rented out.

    The staff, especially the concierges, were incredibly helpful and friendly. The room was spacious and clean, and the maid service was top-notch. The hotel's location was very central, close to theaters, which was convenient for my work commitments. Despite the noise from the area, the hotel did a good job of blocking it out. The only downside was the high prices for breakfast, but overall, I had a comfortable and pleasant stay.

    The local eats near Knickerbocker are bangin', especially the freshly brewed coffee that's an absolute game-changer. The rooftop bar and spacious rooms hit different, with top-notch staff adding that extra flavor.

    Had a minor hiccup with the AC, swiftly fixed by the staff. Paying up could be smoother, but nothing a New Yorker can't handle.

    The location is fantastic, right next to a subway for easy access around Manhattan. The property is clean, albeit more like a solid four-star. Street noise is minimal. However, the lack of amenities, maintenance issues in the room, and surprise costly breakfast left a sour taste.

    In the heart of New York City, with its vibrant energy, lies a haven that offers an air of posh authenticity. The glamorous European luxury and welcoming American hospitality made it "the" place to be for glitterati and dignitaries. The hotel's refined elegance is a testament to its legendary history, embracing the past while looking towards the future.

    Located somewhere in between banks, this hotel offers a perfect location in the heart of the action, just off Times Square. The rooms and bathrooms are spotlessly clean and well-equipped. The staff is attentive, providing excellent service and serving tasty breakfast. Guests can enjoy a beautiful view of the city from their room, and take advantage of facilities such as a big TV and tablet.

    Only one minor negative aspect, some guests had issues with the noise level in the hotel.

    We recently stayed at The Knickerbocker for a week-long vacation. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, making us feel welcomed from the moment we arrived. Our junior suite was spacious and modern, with two big televisions and a remote control for the curtains. The overall master switch for the lights was a convenient feature. The location, with a subway stop right on the corner, made it easy for us to explore the city. one of the nicest hotels we've stayed in!

    We recently stayed at a hotel right on Times Square and near the main transportation hub in NY. the Knickerbocker exceeded our expectations with its well-equipped rooms down to the smallest details. the level of execution and service was outstanding. Our room was large, clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. the hotel provided water daily and the shower was amazing. the staff was friendly and even printed our boarding passes. We enjoyed a nice view from the top of the roof and the air conditioning kept us cool despite the hot weather outside. the location was excellent, with Times Square just around the corner and minimal street noise.

    Nothing to fault. 😊

    The location was unbeatable, right in the hustle and bustle of Times Square. Just steps away from the subway, making it super easy to get around the city. Our spacious suite was like a peaceful oasis in the middle of the lively city, and the breakfast spread was to die for! 🌆🍳 Despite the sleek modern design, the open bathroom layout could be a bit noisy at times, but nothing major to dampen the fantastic experience overall.

    The hotel's location is ideal for exploring Midtown, with easy access to two metro stations, and being right on Times Square. The rooms are comfortable with large bathrooms and automatic shades for privacy. The service from the concierge and front desk staff is excellent, providing great assistance during the stay. Additionally, the hotel offers a rooftop lounge and bar, as well as a fine dining restaurant, adding to the overall luxury experience.

    The hallway carpets seem worn off, presenting a potential tripping hazard for guests.

    Our stay at The Knickerbocker was incredible. We were in New York for a week to attend Broadway shows, and the hotel's location in Times Square was perfect for walking to the theaters. The room was spacious and the beds were amazingly comfortable. The separate bathroom was a nice touch, although we missed having a bathtub. The staff were exceptionally friendly, from the warm reception at check-in to the helpful concierge who assisted with printing theater tickets. The coffee shop in the lobby served the best cappuccinos. We loved our stay and will definitely be returning!

    Would recommend this hotel.

    The luxurious surroundings were complemented by breathtaking views of the city and an impeccable service. The warm and friendly staff made us feel like VIPs, and the delicious cocktails were the cherry on top of a perfect family outing.

    The hotel's décor and common areas exude an elegant charm that made me feel like I was staying in a grand, old-world mansion. As a senior visitor, I appreciated the accessibility of the hotel, with spacious hallways and easily navigable public spaces, making it comfortable for seniors to move around.

    I would only ask for a better vacation experience if the children of the staff were more proactive in offering assistance to senior guests.

    The room with two queen beds was so cozy and inviting. I felt like I was in a luxurious cocoon, with all the thoughtful amenities making me never want to leave. As a guest who appreciates comfort and convenience, this room was just perfect for me.

    I personally found the high-speed WiFi a bit slow at times. But hey, that's just my experience, and others might not even notice.
