Everything was fantastic and consistent with our prior experience at the plaza. Check-in was fast, the room was spotless, room service was quick, turn Service down was nice to have. Food offerings are a little limited after 10:30 am, but you’re in Manhattan and can step outside and go 10 feet to any number of great restaurants.
Lovely stay with incredibly spacious rooms for Manhattan and very friendly staff. And of course the most wonderful location.
The most amazing touch was the hotel giving me Home Alone based gifts to take home to my daughter including a beautiful teddy which she adores.
The only down side was that the walls were thin and we could hear a noisy family constantly through the wall and the slamming doors from down the corridor a lot. Our room was also by the elevators which let off a very loud noise when one arrived. This had limited impact as the hotel just full of people coming and going through the night.
Overall a great stay - location, room size, staff all fantastic.
From check in to check out the plaza was unreal. The staff is lovely. The property is well maintained. I felt super fancy and would stay here again. 10/10
Ok so the location was ideal. However, the service was lacking. For over 2k per night I would hope that the service would match the bill. The bellman was annoyed that we needed assistance and had us push some of our own bags.
Hair in the bathroom and the bed on night one. Overall it was overhyped.
Absolutely AMAZING in every way. The Plaza exceeded my expectations and was central in making our engagement weekend a time that we will always remember! The STAFF are what truly sets the Plaza apart. Always helpful, humorous and posh without being stuffy, the staff truly are the soul of the institution.
Room service was awesome. I did not appreciate being asked if I was staying at the hotel or not each time I went out and returned. I observed that no other guest were being asked
What an amazing experience in an amazing place, the hotel is obviously iconic and it didn't disappoint in any way, the staff were so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be going back.
