Hotel 17

Zimmer und Gemeinschaftsbad sauber, gute Matratzen, freundliches Personal, ruhig, zentral

We had the police in two nights in a row because someone was making so much noice and screamed most of the night. The managers at the reception promissed us to refund us one night - two years later still nothing ! They had no control over the weird people living there, it was quite scary. The room was so small you could hardly turn around. So I would definetly NOT recommend to stay there!

The location in the Gramercy district is unbeatable, within walking distance of so much of the best of lower Manhattan. The hotel is quite old (it's a vintage hotel in NYC) but is fairly well kept and has its charms - some rooms have been updated more recently than others, but all are clean. There was never any wait for the shared bathrooms. There was an unfortunate incident with the gas supply to the building, which meant a cold shower was all that was available the day I was there. That was really the only issue from the stay, and the price can't be beat, especially for the location.

I came to New York for the 5 Boros Bike Tour this May. I didn't need a fancy hotel with a big lobby ,marble floors and staff running all over the place. What I did need was a hotel in a good location,that is clean,in a neighborhood that I feel safe in, and at a reasonable price. My room was spotless.The building is well kept and has character.The staff at Hotel 17 delivered all that for me.

It was unique. The hotel was unusual for me, as I had never stayed in a European style hotel before, with a shared bathroom. But it wasn't what I thought it would be. The shared, or I would sa ycommon, bathrooms on the hall were not like communal showers and bathrooms, like in a colllege dorm. That is what I was expecrting. They were like your own bathroom at home, so you could have complete privacy. Its location turned out to be really great for my needs. I was able to walk to a subway station within a few minutes. It also had a couple of rather nice local eateries on the same block. I will probably stay there on my next visit, whenever that might be.

the only thing that really bothered me was the service! they were rude and they didn't value you as a customer or a guest. the way the act is as they do not want you to be there and they are doing you a favor by having you stay at their old and ugly hotel !

It's a nice looking place. For what I paid in NYC, I'm completely satisfied. (I had only a shared bathroom, but this was not a problem.)

Good location, clean shared bathroom & room, friendly staff. Sure to book this hotel again if I am going back in NYC!!!

The best thing about this hotel is the excellent location in a nice neighborhood of historic rowhouses. It's within easy walking distance to an ecclectic variety of cafe's and good restaurants--especially Pete's Tavern and Bar Jamon. If you are taking the Bolt or MegaBus this is within walking distance or a short cab ride away. However, this is definitely not a fancy or trendy hotel--there are no high thread count sheets or modern decor. It's also an old building so the room configurations are peculiar and all different --I've stayed 3 times and never had the same looking room. There is also a dizzying array of mismatched patterned wallpaper and dark wood trim . However the rooms and shared bathrooms are clean and well maintained and the staff is competent. An excellent choice for a trip to NYC.
