Most memorable hotel experience ever! We were upgraded to a spectacular room without asking, the staff was incredibly kind, it really exceeded every expectation. My tween girls will talk about this stay for years to come, you have no idea how special this was Fifty Sonesta, thank you!

Perfect location for my trip as my daughter lives in 2nd Avenue. 15 min walk to Central Park, Times Square, Rocafella, 5th Av.
Aircon could be improved but it did cool the room. Staff were fantastic.

Randy on reception from minute we arrived set the bar for great service. Our first room sadly wasn’t great, we changed next day to larger one. Hotel could do with bit of spruce up but, it is great value and very clean, comfortable beds too. The hotel is in great location, lots of bars and restaurants close by and subway too. Only 10 minute walk to Fifth avenue and Rockefeller centre.

Not a 4 star hotel. Room was fine. Issues with lack of heating during a cold snap. Was promised a heater 3 times and even got some blankets. Would've picked somewhere else had I know it was lacking in various areas

Loved the doormen they made our stay and the rooms while not upgraded entirely had new floors which was helpful and clean. The rooms were much larger than we normally see in NYC and the location is perfect for our family. Didn’t love the early checkin fee but that was my only complaint.
