This hotel provided a luxurious stay with outstanding amenities such as the spa center and exquisite private facilities. The service was impeccable and the public terrace offered breathtaking views of the city. The location was perfect, being only minutes from multiple attractions.
A minor issue with the room, the air conditioning was quite loud. However, this minor issue did not detract from the overall luxury and comfort of the stay at this hotel.

I recently stayed at The Benjamin and absolutely loved it! My stay was for a week-long business trip and the hotel was perfect for my needs. The location was ideal, with everything within walking distance. The staff were incredibly attentive, ensuring all my needs were met. The bed was hands down the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in at a hotel. The decor was elegant and calming, creating a wonderful home away from home ambiance. I also appreciated the nearby subway station and 24-hour pharmacy. it was a fantastic experience.
Would recommend this hotel.

It was definitely 5 stars for me: location and staff were good. Just a 15-minute walk away there was 5th Avenue-53rd Street subway station.

I recently stayed at The Benjamin Hotel for a business trip. The staff, from the doormen to the front desk and housekeeping, were all incredibly friendly and helpful. The hotel is perfectly located and the cozy bedrooms and marble bathrooms with windows made for a comfortable stay. Don't miss the chance to experience The Benjamin Hotel.
Would recommend this hotel.

The property was very pet-friendly, with a dog bed provided in the room. The hotel had a unique "Pillow Menu" and a great bar serving good drinks. The location was convenient, with easy access to stores, coffee shops, attractions, and restaurants.
Felt welcomed into the family, nothing was too much trouble.

Noisy room especially early in the morning! Very unpleasant! And no underpants in the ''suite''!

The Classic bldg at The Benjamin Royal Sonesta is a hidden gem in midtown NYC. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, perfect for a women traveling alone. The staff is friendly, helpful, and make you feel right at home. The hotel's location is ideal for exploring the city, and being a native New Yorker, it truly embodies the essence of NYC. The connected National Restaurant is top-notch, although a bit pricey. a great choice for a New York hotel experience.
Felt relaxed, nothing to complain about.

very well located, subway next door
It's a shame the spa was not accessible, especially in winter.

Spacious room with plenty of storage space. Small equipped kitchen. Comfortable bedding.
Disappointing arrival. You have to pay an extra charge for a room on the first floor (from the 15th floor): account debited but it was necessary to claim because the allocated room was on the 8th floor. And forgot to give the Wifi code.

During my recent visit to NYC, I had the pleasure of staying at a hotel that truly exceeded my expectations. The Benjamin provided me with a comfortable and enjoyable experience, making me feel like a valued guest. The hotel's location, just two blocks from the subway, made it incredibly convenient for exploring the city. The highlight of my stay was the exceptional customer service I received from the staff. They were always friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure my needs were met. The Benjamin truly knows how to make their guests feel welcome and appreciated.
The only downside to my stay was the lack of late-night room service options. It would have been convenient to have a menu available directly from the hotel, rather than having to rely on external services.

Nice size rooms. Good location
Sanitary obsolete, as is often the case in the olden days. Small bathtub. No shower hose. No switch-controlled lighting

The hotel had a prime location in midtown with everything from great restaurants to Central Park conveniently located nearby. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the rooms were clean and comfortable with comfortable beds. Additionally, the automatic main doors made entering and exiting the hotel with full hands a breeze.

The one bedroom suite was spacious and comfortable. Although the bathroom was small, it had a nice marble finish. Our room had a lovely little balcony. The hotel's location was perfect for exploring the city. Overall I would recommend Royal Sonesta.

We had an amazing time exploring Manhattan from our base near Grand Central Station. The hotel's location was ideal, with easy access to Broadway shows and popular Midtown attractions. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, providing a cozy retreat after a long day of sightseeing. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable, and the breakfast options were delicious. We were also impressed by the facilities and room advantages, such as the attentive service and helpful recommendations from Elias.
There was some confusion regarding the room temperature during our stay. It took a while to get the temperature under control, but once we notified the staff, they were quick to remedy the situation.

Convenient location in Midtown, with a fantastic restaurant on the first floor. Enjoyed the large, well-appointed room and the friendly and engaging staff.
Expensive for the level of maintenance and service. The hotel management seemed unhelpful and not very accommodating, especially when it came to having a dog in the room.

Convenient location near midtown tourist attractions. The hotel facilities were great, and the cleanliness of the room impressed me. The staff was friendly and made me feel welcome in this city.
There was nothing I didn't like.

Great size suite for a family of three. Ample space to move about. Convenient "kitchen area" in the room for storing leftovers and snacks.
The constant noise from sirens due to the hotel's proximity to a police and fire department. However, this is to be expected in Midtown Manhattan.

Stayed in the room that needed to be cleaned.

Prime location, the staff was accommodating and the rooms were luxurious. The view from my room was marvellous! Beds were uncomfortable, nonetheless it was truly a fun stay. Also, the hotel had quick access to an Art Deco skyscraper.
