Wolcott Hotel

Super zentral gelegenes Hotel in Manhatten - ideal für einen Kurzaufenthalt in New York.

Dieses Hotel ist absolut empfehlenswert. Zwar nicht mehr gerade neu, aber sauber und in einer TOP-Lage! Einziger Kritikpunkt: WLAN im Zimmer ist nur gegen Aufpreis (24 Std. für 9,95 $ z.B.) möglich und hat bei mir trotz aller Bemühungen des Hotelpersonals nicht funkioniert.

In Hotel Wolcott's favor, they did let us check in several hours early, free of charge. This was a lifesaver as my wife and I and just gotten into town on the redeye and felt terrible. However, everything else was either mediocre or just plain annoying. Reasonably close to the subway. Nothing in the bathroom worked well. The wifi was overpriced and only usable on one device and one location. The bed was extremely hard. No thermostat controls. Windows in our 12th floor room opened easily and had no screens. Only one nightstand. There were three electrical sockets in the bedroom, two of which were inaccessible and the other was as far from the nightstands/desk as it could get. We'll be trying someplace else next time.

The Hotel location is ideal for business people but the staff are not friendly/helpful and have very little time to listen to customers. I did not like the hotel as my room was not what I requested for and when I enquired, the response was not encouraging and I let it stay. Cannot be a repeat customer nor recommend the hotel to any one. No meals offered at the Hotel or at least we were not told of the existence of such facilities.

Be sure to read the interesting history of the hotel in the room information notebook.

Un hôtel agréable, très bien placé, à deux pas de Time Square de l'Empire State, du Flatiron, de la 5e Av, et des commerces (le grand magasin Macy's par exemple), etc. Le personnel est correct, petit déj simple (mais gratuit). Chambres un peu bruyantes, mais très supportable, très propres, bien équipées. Petit hic, la connexion internet est payante. C'est un hôtel que je recommande globalement.

Good location to access most local amenities with small walk.

The hotel was great! It had great charm to it and the staff was quick and ready to serve. The location was great too, only two blocks away from madison square garden, and walking distance to times square.

The Wolcott is a beautiful, historic hotel that is updated and well-kept. The lobby is beautiful. Our room was very clean and spacious for NYC. We liked the option of three twin sized beds for a group of 3. The check-in/out was very smooth and easy. Our luggage was stored on the last day at no cost. There were delicious muffins, coffee, and tea served each morning in the lobby. The hotel location is great....close to subway, Herald Square, Empire State Building. Our price was great especially for a holiday weekend. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Old style hotel. Nicely maintained. Impressive and beautiful lobby. Room was very small but had high ceiling. Clean. Room was too warm so we slept with windows open which meant sirens and honking horns all night. Morning coffee and muffins in the lobby. However, served skim milk only for coffee, which made it undrinkable for us. What makes this hotel is its location. In midtown, off 5th Avenue, between the Empire State and Flatiron buildings. Not a bad experience but not good enough to seek this hotel specifically next time.
