Staff is good, rooms are OK. Bathroom is small but shower is great. Hotel doesn't own rooftop bar but food and drinks are good. There's. Starbucks downstairs, PJ Clark's for good burgers and some tasty Gelato all conveniently located on street level of building.
The room was comfortable, the staff friendly and attentive. I loved being in the beautifully decorated lobby listening to cheerful Christmas music. Smiles were everywhere.
Sitting in the lobby the best old time New York City feeling! This hotel is old. Older heating and plumbing in rooms but very good service in the case of disrepair, etc! Excellent location, great restaurants all over. Went to mass on 71st St, bookstore nearby, lovely walk to Broadway and museums. Will stay again and again.
The room was spacious, clean and central to everything I needed to do. The catered event on the rooftop bar for my organization was handled professionally and enjoyed by all. I would highly recommend Empire to business and tourists alike. Great trip.
