Frommer's Review
There's a lot to like about this hotel -- from its enviable location overlooking Central Park to the impeccable and personable service -- but what I like best is that this undoubtedly luxury hotel manages to maintain a homey elegance and does not intimidate you with an overabundance of style.
Rooms are spacious and decorated in traditional, English-country style. Suites are larger than most New York apartments. Rooms facing Central Park come with telescopes, and all have flat-screen TVs with DVD players; the hotel even has a library of Academy Award-winning films available. The marble bathrooms are also oversize and feature a choice of bathrobes, terry or linen, and extravagant Frederic Fekkai bath amenities. For families who can afford the steep prices, the hotel is extremely kid-friendly. Suites have sofa beds, and cribs and rollaway beds can be brought in. Children are given in-room cookies and milk. You can even bring your dog (under 60 lb.); if it rains, the pooch gets to wear a Burberry trench coat. Now that's homey elegance. While the kids and dogs are entertained, the older folks can be pampered with facials or massages at the Switzerland-based La Prairie spa or dine at the hotel's restaurant, BLT Market.
