Our stay at the Knickerbocker was excellent! From the check-in process and friendly supportive staff to the amenities and room quality. The rooms are a great size with fabulous turn down/cleaning service making the stay much more relaxing when needing a recharge. We were a little skeptical of it being located in the heart of Times Square but you rarely hear any noise and the hotel feels like a mini oasis from the hustle just outside. The gym is new feeling and large with great machines and plenty of options, never stepping over anyone to get a workout in. The team is really friendly and helpful with any requests from calling a car to local recommendations. Would highly recommend and definitely return for future stays.

I loved the location! The property was clean. Service was good, except the lobby coffee was gone before 7:30 AM. The design of the rooms is terrible. There is no door to the bathroom. Glass separates the shower and the toilets, and the hallway door enters into the bathroom space. We stayed in a room with two queen beds, and if someone was in the shower, no one could leave the room without exposing the naked person showering to whoever might be in the hallway. People want real doors when they use the toilet. Is it really too expensive for nice hotels to afford walls and doors for bathrooms?

Fine but won’t be back

Hotel was fine. A little run down around the edges. Room had a view of a wall two feet away, a disappointment considering we were in Times Square.

I’ve stayed here a few times. I always receive two free drink coupons to use at the bar, per what Expedia tells me. I didn’t receive it this time. Kind of upset. The bell hop also lost my luggage and it took him a while to find it… on top of that, my keys didn’t work for my room… they did upgrade my room though, which I like the ambiance and the rooftop bar and location.

The rooms were good size compared with many NY hotels.They were very clean and well maintained.The location right on Times Square was perfect when seeing Broadway shows. Close to the subway and shopping. If you are wanting to bring in the New Year in NY, this is the location.The hotel has a private roof top patio with several parties to join in on the celebration. Now what makes this hotel special is the staff. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by the bellman, then the front desk staff were friendly and knew just what to say after a long day of traveling. The housekeeping staff were very good at keeping my room clean and comfortable. The room service was fast and the food good. I never waited more than 30 minutes to get a meal delivered. The kitchen obviously had a strong hand in the food quality and the fast delivery. One of the most important services for this hotel is the friendly and knowledgeable concierge staff. The large concierge desk is the first thing in the middle of the lobby that greets you. Although I had been to NY several times over the years, the concierge staff made life so much easier. The restaurant and brunch recommendations were spot on. A last minute lunch meeting was saved when the staff knew I was stressing and made directions simple for me to understand. They included return directions back to the hotel as well. Staying at the Knickerbocker, was like staying at a five star hotel without the fluff or expense. The staff makes the difference.
