The Peninsula is a beautiful hotel. Rooms are roomy, especially by NYC standards. The bed and linens are very comfortable and luxurious. Location is great if you prefer to be close to upscale shopping, a few blocks from Saks, and within walking distance to the theatre. Getting a cab is difficult at 5th and 55th so leave extra time when you're going to dinner or a show. We saw Motown (fantastic!) but had to walk to the theatre because the bellman couldn't find a cab. Café Europa is just across 5th avenue if you want to grab breakfast (eggs, bagels, wraps, etc.) or a snack (muffins, cake, fruit salads, yogurt). Prices are really cheap and the food is fresh and good. We ordered a salmon BLT room service and it was delicious. Hotel bar is inviting and relaxing place to kill an hour before going to the airport or to rest after a long day shopping. A couple of negatives.....elevators are either up or down a set of stairs from street level; housekeeping is good, but could be better (only one bathrobe, bath salts and Qtips not replenished). Finding the wall safe proved to be difficult. It's behind the mirror next to the desk. Large bathroom, really clean and lots of counter space for make up, etc. We got a deal with Expedia. Unfortunately, our great deal also came with a view of a brick wall and the gigantic heating/cooling system. If it matters to you, make sure you're not facing the interior courtyard (a.k.a. the brick wall) when booking a room. We would definitely stay at The Peninsula again. « less

From customer service, food quality, shockingly awesome rooms, to an atmosphere of opulence - the Peninsula is so far above any competitor that it's almost unfair. For those of us who have stayed in NYC before, we're used to paying a fortune for small crappy hotel rooms. Never more. Booked a Jr. Suite, and they triple-upgraded me to a Suite with 1 and a half baths, and a space bigger than your normal NY apartment - with a spectacular view of 5th Avenue from one of about 30 windows. The prices are expensive, but are comparative with other hotels in the area - and no matter how much you pay, it will be worth it - if only for the feeling you'll get when you walk past the front doorman and look around to see what a REAL hotel looks like. « less

even before we went, the hotel went above and beyond to assist us with baby equipments such as high chair, bottle warmer, sanitizer, crib, etc. we asked it, they had it. Elena was the one who assisted us with every request i made for our 13month old. traveling with a toddler is stressful but the Peninsula made it easier and worry free for us parents. we were so fortunate to have stayed here. the room service was great. our picky toddler enjoyed it. the location cannot be beat. we walked to central park and shopped on the fifth avenue without worrying about transportation. everyone greeted us genuinely and made us feel welcomed. when i went out with my son in stroller while husband was attending conferences, several staff even helped me carry the stroller down the stairs when the elevator wait was too long. overall, best hotel we stayed at in nyc and cannot wait to return (when our toddler is easier to fly with of course) « less

I stayed at the Peninsula for a couple of nights with my wife this month. This is going to be my first tripadvisor hotel review and I had decided to write a review for the hotel before checking in so, I was noting everything down and heres what I have to say:
Check in: We were checked in by Diggy and it was a pleasant experience. He informed us about the closed restaurant (renovations - they are coming up with a new concept - makes me want to go again) and also walked us to our room. The attention made us feel like celebrities and Diggy answered our questions efficiently about the hotel and New York. Once we were at our room he showed us all the room features and also noted our news paper requests. I offered him a tip but he refused to accept it saying that he is doing his job, this was the first time I saw someone at a hotel refuse to accept a tip and quite frankly it left me thinking. Our luggage was already placed in our room before we arrived.
Room: I must say the room was very nice. A few months prior, I was staying at The St. Regis and was told that the Peninsula is outdated but this clearly is not true. We had a interior facing room and it had everything we needed. The only negative I could pick out would be that it lacks natural light.
Housekeeping - The housekeeping in the hotel is decent and every evening after a long days in new york city we came back to fresh, crisp sheets.
Food: Since the restaurant was closed we tried room service the first night - the food was on time however it tasted bland much like airline food. We tried they're lounge food and it was much better but still not up to the standard I was expecting. Try eating out when you stay here. Luckas at the lounge was very professional and always had some good suggestions. Randy was a great host as well. We tried the rooftop bar and I must say it exceeded my expectations.
Richard at the concierge desk is very efficient and was fast in recommending places/restaurants, he would instantly offer to make reservations for us and he has a good knowledge about the city.
The hotel is very well located on 5 avenue in heart of Manhattan close to central park. The accommodation at this hotel is fantastic and the staff is always smiling and ready to help - Diggy would always enquire about how our stay is and if we needed anything. He knew that it was my wife's first trip to the city and was quick to send some magazines and maps to the room for her. The housekeeping staff on our floor would always greet us with a smile. I would say if you can afford it and are looking for luxury home away from home then look no further. « less

We enjoyed very pricey Kir Royale cocktails ($26 each) at this bar before dinner on a Wednesday after work. Very upscale and older crowd in attendance. Excellent, but small, non-smoking outdoor area looking north up Fifth Avenue towards Central Park. Much larger patio area with tables and permitted smoking on the south east side with room for at least 100+ guests. Good bar snacks and attentive service. One hour, four drinks and nearly $150.00 later we descended to street level to meet our car service for the ride to the Smoke Jazz Dinner Club on the upper west side. « less
