Hôtel Plaza Athénée

First time using this lovely hotel but not my last. Small hotel with excellent rooms and service. Unfurtenatelly, restaurant was closed so we took a chance to eat at the bar. Not worth it, food was mediocre at best except the French fries.||Rooms were clean and spacious with plenty of amenities. Concierge and front desk people were friendly. A lovely place to come and stay.

I've been coming here for 20 years and it's sad to say but it's showing its age and not too well. The service has always been impeccable but this time it was average at best. Even the courtesy of asking how you enjoyed your stay was replaced with here's your bill. The curtains in my room were ragged and torn, the bar has gone from being active and vibrant to dull and dreary. And to add insult to injury the day before I arrived I saw on their website a special price of $250 for the night but because I made the reservation by phone I had to pay $420. I'll be back in the city again next month but at a different hotel.

The location on the upper west side is excellent (just off Madison Ave shopping and an easy walk to 5th Ave shopping). The staff is amazing. They really pay attention to each guest and all of the details. The decor is dated. The rooms are dated. The bathroom is hard to use (toilets and sinks way too low, too small, old showers). The room size is good for NY. The bar is stuffy. I felt old staying here.

As soon as we arrive in this wonderful hotel we got help from the doorman /bell boy . ||He open the door and right away he took care of our suitcases, it was such a relief we took the red eye so we were very tire. Checking in was so easy with Theo he was so consider he knew we had been flying Over night and checking in was so fast .||I love Our room was lovely nicely decorated, so much space for the two of us. We had breakfast in our room every morning and I was so impressed to see how professional the waiters were, he open the curtains served our coffee and tea, and so on . . Food at the restaurant was excellent, service was so professional we enjoy it very much ||This beautiful fancy hotel is an example of a how a five star hotel should be .||And you feel it as soon as you enter th

This is a classy hotel for sure. It is decorated very well and is very comfortable. the bed mattresses are very cozy and clean. I would definitely recommend the hotel for a stay but wouldn't recommend eating or drinking there as it is quite expensive...Drinks are around $25.00. Having said that.... IT IS NEW YORK CITY!
