Courteous, friendly staff and efficient use of space mark this hotel. While there are very few frills at Aloft Harlem (take your own shower cap, etc.) and not a drawer in sight, all your major needs are well met. Our room was pleasant and lit by a large window. It was exceptionally quiet. A second chair would have been nice,... More

My husband & I had the pleasure of staying at the Aloft in Harlem, just around the corner from the Apollo. Not only are the prices much cheaper than downtown Manhattan the room was clean, modern and a decent size with a big desk and TV, and the staff were all fantastic. Every time we came back to the hotel... More

After several trips to New York, I wanted to change location from my normal stay. I chose the Aloft in Harlem. What a treat. I enjoyed the rich day to day culture of life in Harlem. The Hotel was clean and the service was nice. Transportation was accessible, although I was not in time square there was no problem moving... More

Really enjoyed the two times I stayed at the Aloft. The location, though a bit far from the Manhattan hotspots for tourism and shopping, is interesting with some good bars and restaurants around. Great thanks to the front office guys and the crew at the very lively inhouse bar. The rooms were spotless and modern.

If you can't afford Midtown (or, as was the case for me, it's sold out on short notice), the Aloft Harlem is far more convenient than staying Downtown. The 125th St. subway station is practically across the street and it's 10 minutes on the express train to Columbus Circle with no stops! The staff is unfailingly friendly, the selection of... More

The location of this hotel is perfect, half a block from most train lines at the 125th Street stop and close to many restaurants and stores. The lobby is well appointed and modern.
