We are upgraded to a suite! Clean hotel. Great location. Cognac resturant a plus. Negative- we were hit with $57 “resort fee”. Expedia claims all fees are included, but apparently they’re not.

Wonderful Stay

Overall wonderful stay! My husband and I go to NYC often and this time decided to switch up neighborhoods and stay at 48Lex. Front desk as wonderful. And it didn't hurt we got a nice upgrade. The room was one of the bigger rooms we've had in the city. Super comfortable and wonderful view. We had a voucher for the breakfast which was delicious. Overall wonderful stay and would definitely stay again.

The room was spacious, quiet and pretty clean. The room description is a bit misleading. I had a premium king and the listing stated there was a coffee maker and bathrobes. Neither were present in my room. I actually choose where I book based on a coffee maker so that was a let down. The kettle and steep coffee aren't the same. Overall I was content with my stay.

I was pleased with this hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. I was pleasantly surprised with the voucher that I used for breakfast at Cognac restaurant. The breakfast was freshly prepared and good portion size. The room/suite was spacious and had a small kitchen that came in handy. The only inconvenience was that only one elevator was working. A long wait for elevators. I would stay here again.

Not as pictured.

Not as pictured. The room was aged and worn. I had a larger room with a sitting area. The bathroom was not clean at all. Hairs on the toilet seat, and I did not want to take my shoes off to walk on the floors, which were so dirty. I was only there 2 nights and not spending much time in the room...Otherwise, I would have left.
