The staff at HGU New York were all so lovely, they were very friendly and helpful, it is a pity the bar and cafe are so quiet, there wasn’t many people around but we still enjoyed our coffee in the morning without leaving the hotel! The location was also very handy, we walked everywhere! I would definitely stay at HGU New York in the future.

Thank you for the review! With the weather changing and the menu expanding we do believe the bar and cafe will fill up more. We hope to see you again!

After a 7 hour flight it can hinder anyones 1st impression but I was very happy when I arrived. It would have been a nice touch for someone to welcome guests at the door or to help with the suitcase. Otherwise I was very happy my room was available especially since I arrived a few hours early. Made my way to my room and was a tad dissappointed when I exited the elevator, carpet was oldish and not much light. But when I entered my room I was very happy, I agree with other reviews they are on the smaller side but the room overall makes up for it. Bed was great, bathroom too, private cloakroom with a mini fridge. Downstairs has a bar and lounge, all which seemed comfortable but didn't explore after all I came to spend my holiday in NY not on a sofa. It really is a lovely hotel, near K-Town, in the quieter area so you get a good nights sleep. Close to a subway station and pen state station a couple of blocks, I would definetly stay again and would like to thank the hotel staff for my stay. One recommendation: would be great to provide slippers especially in winter :)
