Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

Chancellor Hotel on Union Square

10/10 Excellent
"The staff was unparalleled! Courteous and helpful in every way. Room was small but immaculate. Loved the “pillow menu”. Can’t beat the location and the complimentary coffee and cookies fueled us for a day of activities. Will definitely stay again!"
