Hotel Helmsley Park Lane

The hotel was in a great location. Right on the Central Park and therefore relatively "quiet". A metro station is just a few steps away from the hotel. Fifth Avenue shopping and Times Square are just a short walk away. If you are lazy, a few metro stations Times Square are all within walking distance. In short, the hotel is reasonably quiet yet is best of both worlds!

Sad but true: We encountered only the staff at the hotel friendly, for its services a tip inciting companies. The welcome at the hotel: instead of a few true a disaster nice words to welcome was right our credit card may require a travel agent (even though we had booked and paid the trip was long). You were also in this hotel to be quite unfair and the staff are not particularly helpful.

This review is a object somewhere between rather bad and was good. The room was for in midtown Manhattan quite spacious and well appointed. The bed was very comfortable and clean. It had a small sitting area, desk, mini bar, safe, telephone, bathrobes and shoes, iron and ironing board and iron, and a fairly large flat screen TV. Every morning we got the daily newspaper at the door. The big drawback was the bathroom: it was just plain old and dirty, whereas the age of the furniture problem was the decline. It was very dusty throughout the bathroom. Hair on the floor when opening the toilet window in the toilet plumbing would still on the green bond of a tampons, on the upper edge of the sink looked black deposits. The wallpaper in the near the bathtub was loose and stand. The bathroom in general did clear impression when you take a closer look for an extended period, that it wasn't that must have been properly cleaned.
