The rooms are spacious by NY standards, every room has access to free water bottles and filtered water, and there were ironing boards and irons available in the hall. The only real complaint is that the beds were a bit hard and the shower had very little pressure. The location is right by the 30 Rock tower though which is... More

This hotel is in the center of tourist territory in safer midtown, a great choice for beginners and theatre goers alike where many sites are a short walk away. We got it through travel point redemption program and decided to give it a try. Masculine appointments and decor show it is catered to more the business traveler. Odd steel rod... More

I recently stayed one night at the Jewel and was not impressed. Although the hotel is perfectly located that's about all I liked about it. The room was dark, very small and the bed was rock hard. The room had everything you really need but to me is not a boutique hotel. There was one chair in the room but... More

The Jewel is a boutique hotel between 5th and 6th Avenues right across from Rockefeller Center, which puts you close to the theatre district, the 5th Avenue shopping scene, Central Park, and other historic sites. The hotel is small and rather informal; instead of a front desk, for instance, the staff greets you at the front door sitting on stools... More

Stayed here with my girlfriend for 5 nights mid May this year. The room was as in the pictures and the location was perfect for us, as this was our first stay in NYC and we wanted to live close to everything that we as tourists wanted to see and do. With 5th avenue, Rockefeller center, Times Square, Central Park,... More

My family stayed at The Jewel the second week of May, 2013. The location of this boutique hotel is what makes this a great place to see. When you walk out the front door you see Rockefeller Plaza and the set of the Today show. Right across the street is Radio City Music Hall. We were about 2 blocks away... More

My mom and I loved our stay at this very conveniently located, small, quiet hotel. I love the feel of small boutique hotels and this one didn't disappoint. It is smack dab in the middle if everything, so you can walk to everything! The best 5th/Madison Ave. shopping is right there, as are eateries and the metro, plus Times Square... More

I booked hoping for a relatively nice hotel. The whole appearance and feel is awful. There is no formal reception, two different buildings. Would not come back. I would never pay more than $230 a night to stay here.

Did a lot of thinking on hotel choices for this weekend (May 2013) and decided to go with a smaller one, the Jewel, based on the location. Positive surprise in almost all ways, the location is absolutely perfect (5 min from central park, between 5th and 6th avenue), had a view to the rockefeller center and 51st street. The room... More
