The Royalton was adequate for our 3-night stay in New York in mid-September 2024. The hotel foyer is very lovely, but under-utilised since Covid times (as other Reviews have pointed out). The staff were very pleasant & attentive. The property was neat and clean. The elevators were quite small but there were several of them, and they moved quickly between floors. Our room 506 was clean, quiet and comfortable. The bed was very good, as was the bathroom. The shower was really nice, water pressure strong …and the water was nice & hot. Our room had a mini-fridge, but no jug/kettle or teas/coffee or cups in our room. However staff quickly provided us those when we asked for them. There was no TV in our room (but that didn’t bother us, as we were out most of the time). The hotel had good, free wifi. The hotel is a little dated, but that is to be expected in an older building in the centre of New York. The cost per night was reasonable when compared to the other hotels in inner-city New York and close to Times Square. The hotel is in a fabulous inner-city location…& it was for the excellent location and reasonableness of cost that we chose to stay there. It was an easy walk to Times Square & Broadway theatres, and there was an excellent choice of restaurants and cafes (and even a small supermarket) in close proximity. We absolutely loved the restaurant “Gatsby’s Landing”, about 150m away. The food was sensational and the staff outstanding! The owner, Emilio, really looked after us!
