We've stayed at the Avalon from 11. - 18. May 2012 / Executive Suite ( Room 404 / 4th floor). It's not a modern stylish Chelsea or Tribeca place. But it's Laura Asley style is charming and for exploring the city it's perfectly located. Overall a very good New York experience. Room was spacious and very clean. Got fresh linen... More

We stayed here for a family holiday to New York, and apart from a few hiccups, found it to be great! There was a 'mix-up' (their words) when we arrived, and only one of the rooms was ready for our first night, which was slightly annoying. I managed to sort alternative accommodation for one night, so it wasn't the end... More

In NY we prefer to avoid the busy, unattractive area around Times Square and find a hotel which is still very close to all attractions, with subway and buses nearby. That´s why we choose the Avalon. We had an Executive Suite which was really big- big bathroom with Jacuzzi and shower , big bedroom with very comfortable bed and separate... More

Everything was great. We had a standard room with a double bed - the room was comfortably large which was great. Plenty of room for your stuff, suitcases etc., no need to jump over things. A nice change from the minuscule rooms we usually stay in when we travel around Europe. It is not at all uncomfortable if you need,... More

We stayed there for 4 nights and really enjoyed it...we stayed in deluxe queen size which was really large with 2 double beds....just a few steps to 5th Avenue and Empire State Building...the hotel staff at the reception were always helpful and friendly....So i can just recommend to everyone who wants to stay in the centre of the town....

I travel to NYC several times per year but had occasion to visit recently for a vacation w/ my family. As I usually stay (for business) in the high end 5 star hotels, my wife made the accommodations and thus I had no idea what to expect. Fortunately, I was pleasantly surprised. We had 2 queen beds plus a pull... More

I stayed here with a friend and although I had read the reviews before not all of them were favourable especially regarding the front of house staff. We arrrived and had asked that we have seperate beds but the room was far to small so they upgraded us to a junior suite with two Queen sized beds. The staff at... More

I booked this hotel through hotwire for a cultural trip for our 10th grade class. We booked five rooms for our class and chaperones and stayed five nights. Because our hotwire booking included complimentary breakfast, the hotel honored that commitment for our group even though their policy had changed. The breakfast was just right for us. We had the kids... More
