Came to NYC for a family wedding. The room was small but had a king bed and was comfortable. Loved the second floor library lounge with coffee and snacks. The rooftop bar was awesome. Dislike the added Resort fee as it is a Hotel and not a resort.
It is another home in New York for us. We always book this hotel. Great atmosphere of liberty, nice location and great staff. Especially the lounge in 2nd floor is very useful, we have coffee and soda anytime and it’s free. We love this place so much!
The staff at the front desk/lobby were so pleasant and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely consider the Library Hotel for our next trip to NYC!
Great place very attentive staff small rooms but that’s normal in the city- we enjoyed the 24/7 coffee and lounge option any the area is just great for exploring

Disappointed
Booked The Library as I had stopped in a sister hotel on last visit to NYC, and I knew they had a rooftop bar and a great complimentary cheese board. Was very disappointed to learn the rooftop bar was closed for a private event until 9pm and that’s where the cheeseboard was offered! Won’t book here again.
Short business trip. Location very convenient to grand central terminal and midtown. Petite room is fine unless you are planning on spending a lot of time in the room
I enjoyed my stay. Perfect little spot to come in to the city and stay. The room was small but sufficient as I spent most of my time out and about. Staff very friendly.
Excellent hotel from the minute we walked in the door. Friendly and helpful staff, very clean, a wonderful escape from the hustle and bustle outside the door.
