Old furniture and fixtures (no USB port anywhere) but very clean. Front desk staff ought to be a little friendlier or less bored: on check in Jose never made eye contact but was intent of filing his nails. Good value and comfortable enough for an overnight.

Our room was near the elevator and it was very noisy. When I mentioned this to the front desk, they berated me for not calling them in the middle of the night to complain as it was happening. They did move my room, and I appreciated that, but the beds were smaller in the new room.

A dream of a room with a separate sitting area. And staff, housekeeping, front desk-- excellent. . But nothing tops the porters at the door, as elegant as any you'll find on Park Avenue. Elevating the entire experience. And that goes for the restaurant attached, as well, Nice Matin. Don't miss it for dinner. Beautiful setting, Fabulous meal. Great cocktails. Steak frites was yummy! As were the mussels. We skipped desert and went around the corner on Amsterdam for some phenomenal gelato. Missed lunch and their croque madame. next time! For breakfast you've got the perfect bagel shop catty corner. Grab a bagel and coffee and head to the park, right up 79th street. Which will immediately transport you to every NY movie scene that you love. At Columbus enter the park, continue on at CPW and 80th. Thank you Hotel Lucerne. We'll be back!
