Great Hotel in very handy position.

Great Hotel in very handy position. Facilities good but could do with in room coffee/tea making facilities. Breakfast supplied was coffee/tea with muffins. Muffins a bit much when you are not used to them for breakfast. Only problem was crying baby in next room and thin walls.

The Wolcott is in an excellent

The Wolcott is in an excellent location, walking distance to many of New Yorks attractions. I found the staff helpful when e mailed for information - prompt and good information. The ticket/shuttle person in the lobby- not sure if hired by the hotel but found her not very helpful, tickets and transportation more expensive than found elsewhere (service charge of $30 for ticket for example). The rooms are small and some even smaller with little counter space to lay out items. The price was reasonable. Although each room has a window air conditioner I found the room amazingly quiet.
