Terrible 2 star hotel
I choose this hotel because it was mentioned its 4 star . I came all the way from dubai and this hotel doesnt even can be compared to our 2 star hotels. Not even complimentary water in room , bottle of water in room is 6.75$ . I asked for baby crib at time of booking , when i went to room i had to call front desk and request for Crib . Also i asked for handyman to fix lamp bulbs . Safebox in room wasnt working and ask handyman to fix it , it took him 30 minutes to fix the issue . View of room was roof of other buildings . When you arrive they say closest parking is ipark and they have discount if you say you are from hotel . So instead of 65$ you will be charged 50$ per night and thats only when you stamp parking ticket at front desk if not parking guy doesn't care . Dont park in there there are plenty of parkings around with rate of 40$ per night and i found out at second night . Hotel staff are nice and friendly . Coffee maker in room wasn't working properly , when you put capsule in it door of machine wouldn't close , so i had to push it down and hold it to until it finish's brewing . They charge 200$ for night , fair price of this hotel is less than 100$ . Overall rating is 2

Away from the hustle and bustle of Times Square.
We were a family of 4 (2 teenage daughters), visiting the week before Christmas, stayed in a room with 2 Queen beds in the main room, a middle room which we used for suitcases and dressing and a bathroom. We wanted to stay away from Times Square area as we knew it would be super busy at Christmas time and we liked the idea of being able to just visit that area, but then experience another area of the city. The location of Lucerne gave us the escape from the madness and noise of midtown, but meant we were still ideally located to walk downtown or catch the subway (2 min walk) and get where we wanted very easily. Additionally, the closeness to Central Park meant we coult fit in some early morning jogs and explore there too. The Upper West Side seems like a very nice part of the city, more residential and felt more authentic NY than other parts of the city. The room was cleaned every day and for the small amount of time we spent in it (mainly asleep), it provided us with what we needed..comfy clean beds, clean towels and a lovely hot shower. Any small requests were accommodated, not that we needed much as we are quite self-sufficient. Overall, we would recommended this hotel if you don't mind walking and enjoy being away from the central, touristy areas, but knowing you can get to everywhere you want simply enough. The staff were friendly and pleasant enough. We did arrange a taxi through the hotel to take us to the airport, however we were let down and got a yellow!

Perfect, wonderful hotel
Was a beautiful hotel in a great location. We were surprised to get a two room suite that was clean and comfortable. Our reservation included breakfast at an adjacent restaurant, which we enjoyed. Highly recommend and we will plan to return for another stay. So happy with our choice. No complaints! Only comment is to be aware that hotel doesn’t have parking.
