The hype
Travelers obsess over the location and the lobby smell, but many feel the room finishes are worn out for the $800+ price tag.
The New York Edition
$700-1100/ 박
다음의 경우 예약하세요 You want the Ian Schrager 'cool kid' vibe in a location that beats the pants off Times Square or SoHo.
사람들이 좋아하는 이유
- The Clocktower building architecture is genuinely iconic
- Madison Square Park is literally your front yard
- Le Labo signature scent hits you the second you walk in
한눈에 보기: A stunning visual masterpiece that's starting to show its age with scuffed floors and a destination fee that insults your intelligence.
@amandasparkles님의 리뷰: I checked into The New York Edition and honestly, the view of One World Trade Center from my room was surreal. The minimalist vibe is exactly what I needed to decompress. Highly recommend asking for a high floor!

Reality check
Service is polarizing—you either get the 'cool friend' treatment or the 'you're bothering me' stare from the front desk.
- You prioritize aesthetics and 'vibes' over traditional luxury service
- You want to be in the Flatiron/NoMad food scene
- You love a dark, moody lobby bar scene
청결 & 유지관리
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable twice-daily service, though recent reviews cite missed dust in corners.
- Bathroom hygiene: Clean surfaces, but the 'open' shower design leads to water spots and slippery floors.
- Maintenance: Showing age. Expect scuffed baseboards, scratched wood floors, and the occasional peeling paint.
- Linens & towels: Towels have been reported as 'scratchy' or worn in recent stays, not the plush fluff you expect.
- Odors & scents: Dominant Le Labo black tea scent throughout the lobby; rooms are generally fresh.

예약 전에
알아둘 사항
- There is NO pool, despite the price point.
- The 'Destination Fee' is mandatory and includes a daily laundry credit and F&B credit that expires nightly—use it or lose it.
- Valet parking is extortionate (~$95/night); use a SpotHero garage on 24th or 25th St instead.
준비물
- Slippers (the bathroom floors can be slippery and cold)
- A portable steamer (the laundry credit is a hassle to use for just one shirt)
객실 지니
최고의 선택
- Loft Rooms (higher floors) for the best Empire State Building views
- Superior King for a surprising amount of space by NYC standards
피해야 할 객실
- Rooms near the elevator bank (noisy destination dispatch system)
- Low-floor rooms facing Madison Ave (siren city)
객실 요청 지니 – 복사 & 붙여넣기
“I am requesting a room on a high floor (20+) away from the elevator bank. If available, a view of the Empire State Building would be preferred over the Park view. Please ensure the room does not have a connecting door to minimize noise.”
자주 묻는 질문 및 숨은 팁
예약하기 전에 실제로 알고 싶은 모든 것.
Is breakfast included?
No, and not even for Marriott Bonvoy Platinum/Titanium members. Expect to pay $40+ per person at The Clocktower or grab a bagel nearby.
Does the hotel have a pool?
No. If you need a swim, book the Equinox Hotel or the Mandarin Oriental instead.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, but with a steep $250 non-refundable fee per stay. They do provide a bed and bowl.
How is the gym?
Solid. 24-hour access, Peloton bikes, and decent weights. It's not a mega-club, but it gets the job done.
Can I use the spa?
Yes, located on the 39th floor. It's small, expensive, and requires booking well in advance.
Is the area safe?
Very. Flatiron is one of the safest, most walkable parts of Manhattan, bustling day and night.
내부자 팁
- ✨
The lobby bar is scene-y, but the bar *inside* The Clocktower restaurant upstairs is often quieter and feels more exclusive.
- ✨
Ask for a 'high floor' specifically to clear the tree line of Madison Square Park for better light.
- ✨
The elevators use a 'destination dispatch' system that can be slow and bumpy—allow extra time during morning rush.
가기 전에 알아야 할 5가지
💡The 'half-wall' shower design means you will almost certainly flood the bathroom floor every morning.
💡The hallways are intentionally kept very dark—moody for some, a tripping hazard for others.
💡The furniture is starting to show significant wear (scuffed wood, chipped paint) that doesn't match the luxury price tag.
💡The HVAC units in some rooms have a mechanical rattle that earplugs can't fix.
💡You might get a 'courtyard' view which is essentially a view of a brick wall—check your room type carefully.
