THE EMPIRE HOTEL
Hôtel situé dans le chic Upper West Side et à quelques pas du Lincoln Center, proposant des chambres modernes et confortables
Si cet hôtel vous dit quelque chose, c'est certainement parce qu'il est apparu de nombreuses fois dans Gossip Girl. La luxueuse penthouse de Chuck Bass n'existe peut-être pas réellement, mais l'hôtel offre tout de même une atmosphère digne de la série, avec sa façade Art déco surmontée de son emblématique néon rouge et son hall d'entrée très années 20. Les chambres sont modernes et confortables et l'établissement est idéalement situé dans le chic Upper West Side, à deux pas du Lincoln Center et de son opéra, de Central Park et de Columbus Circle.

The AC didn’t work all night, the drapes in the room were unwashed and disgustingly dirty, the room was tiny and smelled terrible, the bed was rock hard and the bathroom was so awful that I left this morning without even showering there because that’s how dirty and old it looked! The bathroom doors were all chipped and dented from the inside, the sink and tap proximity is so close that you’ll end up dipping your hand in the water from the sink. It’s so not worth the price! There’s no pharmacies close by and none inside the hotel. The place is very dated and disgusting! ????
The gentlemen in the lobby were always super kind to us, holding doors, greeting us, etc. Every hotel staff member who I interacted with was friendly and helpful as well. We had a room with two beds and a pullout sofa, so our room may be bigger than others, but we thought it was a great size, especially since we thought it might be super small (as older buildings in cities can be). Nothing extravagant, but we could move around comfortably.
We felt safe in the hotel and my son was able to take advantage of the fitness center. The wifi worked well for us and the room was comfortable, too. Anytime we needed an extra pillow or towel, someone was up to our room quickly.
I saw other reviews about a warm room and we experienced this too. Fortunately it was late March and it wasn't a major issue for us. We did not talk to anyone about this while we were staying there so I'm not sure if there was an issue or if it was just that the hotel turns off the AC during winter months. We were also on the 11th floor, so that could have been part of it. Regardless, it was not a deal breaker.
We will recommend this hotel to other travelers and would definitely stay here again (pictured with my review is the view from our room).
But hold up – let’s chat about the drinks. Now, I’m all for adventure, but these concoctions? A bit like a jazz fusion band – unexpected notes, some hits, and a few head-scratchers. I mean, who knew you could mix elderflower with jalapeño? But hey, props for creativity. ????
