Murray Hill East Suites - New York

The room did not smell good. It's a completed outdated place.

Really nice hotel apartment. To have kitchen and separate bedroom in the absolute centre of New York is a great experience. It was a pleasure that we could cook some of our meals at home, not to mention a lot of money saved on that account. Living 3 blocks away from Grand Central and the subway meant that all of Manhattan could be reached within 20 […] minutes. The hotel is old and with no glitter and sparkles, but honestly simple, functional, nice and clean with a friendly and helpful staff. So in short, we found our preferred hotel when in New York.

First: I am a little reluctant to write a positive review of this hotel. I have stayed here several times and they have always been enjoyable stays. This is a hotel type that used to dot the East Side of Manhattan, but has become increasingly rare as these hotels have been "upgraded" to much more expensive accommodations. There are a few little things, […] like the towels probably show more wear than they should and the kitchen has no dish soap or scrubber to allow the guest to clean up (but the maid cleaned everything perfectly each morning). I am reluctant to write a positive review, because next time I may find that you have reservered "my room."!! Les mer

It has been a long time since I have stayed at a hotel with a proper metal key to the room! This rather sums up the place. The room was large and as advertised, and the beds perfectly ok but apart from the flat screen tv, the room and 'kitchen' were a time warp. The wall light by the table started smoking and sparking when trying to switch it on. The […] receptionist did not seem surprised when I reported this and did not apologise. They are under staffed and it usually took time to deal with anything. The paid for internet in the room stopped working and I was credited for this and the shower went cold during use. Maybe I have low expectations but if the price was right I would stay there again - the whole experience was quite nostalgic of years gone by. Les mer

I booked this hotel for a one night Valentine's Day get-away treat for my husband and myself. Since we were staying for just one night I booked the junior suite. To my pure amazement, the room was MUCH MORE than we bargained for. Since we love weekend getaways we know what to expect from a hotel room, but this room was much more than expected. We will […] DEFINITELY book with this hotel again! Les mer

I stay in NYC frequently for business, so I have stayed at many, many hotels covering a wide range of prices and amenities. I had actually booked this hotel in error believing it was another hotel I had stayed at previously. WOW -- for less than the price of a room at one of the big name hotels, I had a fully equiped 1-bedroom apartment. I want to live […] there!!!! Les mer

A great no thrills hotel 2 blocks from Grand Central Station. With 2 rooms, a full kitchen and average size bathroom you can't beat this place for the buck. This was my second stay in 2 months. I took my 17 year old son for college auditions and he really loved the space we had. My only complaint this time was the slow drainge in the bathtub while  […] showering Les mer

No maintenance on this hotel in over 20 years. Filthy dirty carpet (wear socks), paint peeling in the shower and bathroom. Just disgusting!

Great location in midtown Manhattan. Full kitchen let us enjoy our left overs from great restaurants. Lots of room. Love it more each time we stay.

Nice, clean, and comfortable.

I was with my wife and 2 kids. I stayed at a double bed suite. Very confortable. Bathroom was small. Personell very friendly and eager to help. Short walk to 5th avenue. Safe area.

Staff at the hotel was very nice and very accommodating. When I arrived they gave me a VERY nice upgrade for no reason whatsoever. The doormen were very respectful and friendly. The young man at the door doubled as the IT expert and, while he was not able to solve my internet connectivity issues, he was very kind and did his best to assist. Just a really […] nice, simple and easy place to stay. At a great price. Thanks guys! Les mer

nice spacious rooms at a great location at a even better price, I hope it remains a well kept secret. No bar but plenty of choices right across the street.

Always a great place to stay. They had trouble with the elevator, but the hotel can only contact the hotel company to repair this.

We were pleasently suprised by our suite as we had read reviews suggesting that this was a clean but very old style hotel, everything except the very functional dishwasher were up to date considering the cost and previous stays in NYC. One big hint to people not used to tipping (we are Irish and used to all inclusive) is the door man knows everything […] and with a few questions and tip will open up nyc to visitors. We all agreed that we would stay here again and enjoyed the nights in in the comfortable sitting room with a big fridge to cool our beers. Our rooms were cleaned and fresh towels and sheets every day. Les mer

Really liked hotel. Biggest problem-- not very good bed. You never know how important a bed is until you get a bad one

I was very disappointed with this hotel. I love the location but will not stay here again. It is in dire need of rennovation. The door to my room didn't lock from the outside. Dingy would be the best descriptor of decor. There is no sound insulation and I heard every door bang all night long.

The Hotel is convenient to GCT, many restaurants and an EZ walk to shopping. Hotel is clean and in good condition. It is a good value for the money.

What a strange hotel! Murray Hill East is a converted apartment building - which we loved. The suites are spacious and quiet and if the furnishings are a bit dated and funny (like, where did they GET some of this stuff?), who cares? It's clean, the staff is great, the beds are comfortable. We will definitely be back.

I was in the city on business and booked hotel last minute based on price. For the money, it was a great value. I would stay there again.

Made reservations only 2 days ahead because of a change in plans; arrived later in the evening and was upgraded to a one-bedroom: bigger than a lot of NYC 1 BR apartments! Flat screen TV, quiet street, friendly staff. Hard to beat for a central NYC location. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

In NYC, when there is an event or high season, and hotels are at a premium, you can't be too picky. This hotel is a reliable, clean and friendly older hotel in a good location that can be had at a reasonable price.

This hotel is in a good location. It is an older hotel with old style keys instead of the electronic keys found in newer hotels. It also had older style TVs (no flat screens). More important items such and beds and carpets seemed to be updated or at least well cared for. Customer service was excellent.

The good news first: Having a suite that feels like a one-bedroom apartment for less than the price of a hotel room is a no-brainer. Who could refuse? So what if it's not fancy? So what if the interior designer isn't Martha Stewart? So what if the silverware tray sits on top of the microwave? Hey, at least there's a full kitchen, right down to a dishwasher […] (for the housekeeper). The not-so-bad news: I didn't think the staff was all that accommodating - not only to my needs, but to other guests. I noticed that they were very friendly to some guests (who seemed to be repeat customers), not so friendly - though not outright rude - to me and others. Just a tad indifferent, especially, it seemed, to people who had trouble speaking English. .The bad-ish news: They charge $7.95 for in-room internet access, and although they claim it's free in the lobby, it seems to work intermittently and also seems to depend on where you sit in the lobby which I was only informed of by another guest - not by anyone behind the front desk who I had informed of the problem. Still, I'd go back in a New York heartbeat. Les mer

The hotel is a converted rental apartment building built in the 1950's or 1960's. Suites (former studios and 1 bedrooms) are spacious and reasonably quiet but other than updated bathroom and some kitchen appliances, there isn't anything fresh about the place. The furnishings and carpeting are adequate but hardly recent. The TV, telephones and elevators […] are old. Since there are kitchens in the units, the hotel doesn't offer breakfast. Staff is less than eager to please. Doorman is sometimes there, sometimes not. Internet went down while I was there and the staff seemed uninterested in helping get it fixed. Neighborhood is convenient. It's cheap and clean enough to consider staying there again but it's bear-bones and hardly impressive. No pay-per view. Cable TV only. Les mer

Convenient to Midtown tunnel. Parking nearby. Walking distance to Times Square and Rockefeller Center. Nice Bars and Restaurants in the area. The Junior suite was spacious and clean. Old furniture and rug but very clean. Great value, would definitely stay again.

It's a quick walk from Grand Central, a nice neighborhood. Once you have your luggage stored, you're off on a New York adventure. Staff was very friendly, room was extremely comfortable. For the price, we'd stay there again and recommend it to others.

This is the 2nd time we've had a last minute thing and needed to stay at Murray Suites. I picked it again because of the first stay. It's nice. They have a doorman, 24 hr front desk and the rooms are ample size for NYC. The only thing I really didnt like was that we had an EARLY morning appointment and requested an extra 30 minutes on check out and […] when we got back to the room after the appointment, they had already gone in and cleaned. I don't really care for the idea of anyone coming in to my room if I'm still checked in. We requested no service either. Other than that it's a great little place to stay, prices are fair for what you get, the location is pretty good, depending on where you're going and the front desk staff is great, unless you forgot your toothbrush, then they send you 4 blocks over and 5 blocks up to some store thats open 24 hours because they dont carry any amenties if anything was forgotten.

We loved staying at this hotel as the price was affordable and it is close to subway and eateries and on a good day it is a nice walk to empire state building and times square. We loved the location and enjoyed the stay. Only cons were that the room was not clean enough, the sheets were smelly and the couch was smelly. The carpets looked dirty and […] there was a moldy lived in smell in the room when we were expecting it to be fresh and inviting. Still I think it is a good option for people like us who just stayed at the hotel to shower and spent the rest of the time outdoors. Les mer

Great place to stay in Manhattan. Good neighborhood and comfortable room in traditional style.

The suite was well sized. Maid service was excellent. Cleanliness was excellent. My only complaint is that the heat register in the bedroom did not function very well, even after they reported that workmen were working on it that day. The one in the living room was fine.

Great location and very nice hotel--the room/suite is excellent. Only drawback is that the fitness center is not very interesting--old equipment and little variety.
