Nicole

Room was nice. It was boiling hot and without the ability to open a window or turn down the thermostat. It made for a very uncomfortable sleep, given the room was close to 1000 dollars for the night I would have expected it not to be 85 degrees.

We celebrated our son’s 13th birthday in NYC and booked a last minute room at the Benjamin. We were shocked by how grand the room was! It was an end room with a sleeper sofa, king bed in a separate room, kitchenette, large dining room table, and the best part? A huge terrace where we would sit and feel like we were living in a NYC movie set. It’s now our favorite hotel; the staff was accommodating and rooms were super clean. I wish we could have extended our stay! Perfect location to access Rockefeller Center, 5th Avenue shopping, Times Square, and the green subway line to get you anywhere relatively quickly. We discovered some new favorite restaurants within a few blocks of the hotel. The gym was super crowded when we were there but I’d say that’s a good thing! We will definitely be back!

The room key did not work when I returned late at night and a Master key was required to open the door. The phone in the room didn't work when I tried to call front desk, I had to use my mobile. The safe in the room was in operable and the cosmetic mirror didnt work. We expected these basic items to be functioning given the rate charged at this hotel. Staff was good though, but still. We mentioned all these shortcomings when we checked out but no reduction in the hotel rate was considered.
