Frommer's Review

The Affinia Dumont is the perfect choice for fitness-focused guests: when you book a room, you can request a complimentary "Fit Kit" that will be prepared based on your needs for an in-room workout. The hotel also has a terrific fitness spa, complete with the weights, cardio equipment, and massage and skin treatments. But even if you don't want to break a sweat, the hotel features amenities that make it an attractive option. The suites range from studios to two-bedrooms, and all include full kitchens, at least one 27-inch TV, a large desk with an ergonomic chair, the "Affinia Bed," with a custom-designed mattress and four-selection "pillow menu," and a minibar stocked with unusual options, such as health elixirs with such names as Depth Recharger or Virtual Buddha. The hotel is a bit away from the center of Midtown, but still within easy walking distance of Herald Square shopping, the Empire State Building, Madison Square Garden, and Grand Central Station.

Facilities:
Restaurant; health club and spa; fitness concierge; concierge; limited room service; coin-operated laundry; grocery-shopping service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
