Charming, small hotel in the middle of the big city. Bowl of Hersey minis on desk at check-in. :)
Room was bigger than expected and quiet (I was on top floor). The decor was a little shabby b/c they are working on renovations. The bathroom renovations seems to be complete already- the shower was great!
Free breakfast in the morning had many fresh, healthy options. Surprisingly well-done after I was expecting a soggy danish at best.
Elevators were slow, but part of that could be b/c of the renovations.
They promoted turn-down service, but I didn't see any evidence of it when I returned from dinner.
Overall I was really happy with my stay. There was just the right level of service for what I needed. I would definitely stay again. « less

Thank you very much for taking the time to write about your recent stay at the Park South Hotel. I’m very pleased you enjoyed your stay. Your observations are correct; we are in the process of a full refurbishment of our guest rooms which is being conducted in stages. It appears you were in one of our executive rooms with the slate bathroom tiles and rainfall showerhead. The refurbishment is not limited to just our guest rooms but also all of our public areas later in the year. I hope you like the many changes planned for the Park South and I look forward to welcoming you back soon. Please do not hesitate to contact me directly if I can assist with your next visit. Thanks again.
Warm Regards, Christiaan Aldoy General Manager Park South Hotel

We stayed at Park South for a week. Our room on level 6 was at the back and faced in towards the building next door. The room was really small (but we'd been warned accom in NY was pokey) and the only cons I have with the room was the air-con or heating machine which was right outside our window was really loud and humming non-stop and the room was always quite warm, so we had to sleep with the window open, and of course, put up with the humming. Didn't really bother us as we were beat from our day adventures. Also the elevators are super slow, so take the stairs if you can! The bathroom was lovely and clean and housekeeping was excellent. Every night, two house keepers would knock and offer more towels and chocolates, it was really lovely. Park South do the BEST breakfasts you could want while on holidays between 7am and 10am you can dig into amazing bagels, cold meats, eggs, toast, muffins, cereal, juice, coffee, tea, fruit, yoghurt, croissants etc etc... We are missing those breakfasts! The location of Park South is also great, right next to the green train and two blocks to Madison Square to catch the yellow train. Also, on the corner of Lexington and 29th, you can find a self-serve coin laundry... perfect for those who need to do a bit of washing during your trip! Park South Staff were really friendly and helpful. There is also a restaurant called Black Duck who do Happy Hour... check it out! I'd recommend staying at Park South, we'll be staying there again next year!! « less

Thank you so much for the great feedback, I’m very happy to learn that you enjoyed your stay at the Park South and found both our services and breakfast to your liking. My apologies however with the exterior noise in the courtyard, the HVAC units can be rather noisy when the windows are open. I am very happy to hear that you plan on visiting with us again next year. The ongoing guest room refurbishments will be completed by then so you should see a significant improvement overall. I hope you will reach out to me directly so I can assist with a more quite accommodation on your next trip. Thanks again and have a wonderful summer.

Description on their website tells a tale of a lovely old New York building however this is far from the truth nothing in the hotel appears 'restored'! Our room absolutely stank of stale perfume smelly feet and staleness and the stench from the pillows was revolting I had to wrap it with two towels to bear to sleep on it! The entire hotel smells odd as soon as you walk in the door. Our room was tiny furniture was appalling very worn and covered in chips as were the walls. Room was very stuffy with a small window which was filthy not at all as described on their website and for $800 for 3 nights thought it was blind robbery. Chose to eat at the nearby McDonald's father than utilise the included breakfast as the entire hotel felt unclean! Would not recommend this hotel to anyone as it ruined my trip to New York « less

Thank you so much for taking the time to write about your recent stay at the Park South. It’s always great to hear from our frequent guests and even nicer when they frequent our sister properties. You must have been in one of our model rooms which are real departure from our current design. I think you will be pleasantly surprised with all of the upgrades we have planned. I hope you will share with us your thoughts as we continue with the changes. I will be certain to share your wonderful comments with the team. We hope to welcome you back soon.

First time advisors have so let me down. Thought this hotel was so below par. The room, a superior, at nearly 300 dollars a night didn't even have a wardrobe! Evidently you had to pay 50 dollars more for an executive room to warrant somewhere to hang your clothes. And there was a patch of dried blood on the carpet, something that the hotel was extremely contrite about and gave us a small rebate. Obviously their cleaning staff isn't as vigilant as they said they were. The room was a wedged shape, small, dismal, resembling a Hopper pitting from the 1950s. The tiny window, at the pointed end of the room was useless and just looked out into an air shaft. We had to keep all the lights on, and it was still dark The bathroom however was really good, nice fluffy towels as was the breakfast room/ bar, but the bedroom so let it down. And the staff didn't care we were unhappy, and said we couldn't be moved to another room unless we paid 50 dollars more. Having come from the fabulous Kimberly hotel after one of our party left New York, this was such a let down, and not much cheeper. Will never stay there again and really can not understand why others recommended it. Must have had much better rooms. « less

Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to express your valuable concerns. I do apologize if the reserved guest room was not to your satisfaction. It is always our intent to accommodate guest requests and to work with you to ensure you are comfortable. I am certain there was likely an issue with limited availability at the time of your request for another room. I would genuinely welcome the opportunity to speak with you directly in an effort to make amends and change your opinion of us. Please feel free to contact me directly so we can speak further. Thanks again for your input, I look forward to speaking with you.
