Convenient Midtown location, very friendly staff
I enjoyed my stay at the New York Helmsley Hotel. Although the lobby construction was a little distracting, and we did have to check in on the third floor, it wasn’t enough of an inconvenience to affect my view of the overall stay. The location is phenomenal; steps away from Grand Central Station, the Chrysler building, Times Square, etc. The only drawback with this stellar location is the noise; even 23 floors up you hear honking at night, which you don’t get as much of in other neighborhoods like Soho or Chelsea, but it’s NYC-you get over it! The room was large by New York standards, and my friend and I each had our own double bed, which is always hard to come by in NYC. The price was very reasonable, the staff was beyond friendly, and the hotel was clean. I really couldn’t ask for anything more in a hotel stay. I would definitely recommend this hotel, and will stay there again.

Satisfied with reservations
The location and service from the concierge/front desk was excellent. However, the room, while comfortable and clean, needs some updating such as the shower. Our main complaint was the service from the doormen in getting a taxi. The hotel is undergoing some renovation which might explain some of the problem, but we had to wait 20 minutes at one point for a taxi. One of the doormen told us they had just laid off a person which resulted in him having to hail taxis and service baggage at the same time.
Learn the subway system. It’s easy and relatively cheap Taxis are expensive.
