Staff - very friendly and helpful Room - Very clean, tidy, classy and generally very nice. Location - Just far enough to be able to relax but close enough to walk straight into town. All in all, my wife and I loved this place. If you're looking for a hotel which boasts sheer class, this is deffinately the right place... more

The hotel is very conveniently located with easy walking distance to the theater district, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, the Museum of Modern Art and lots of restaurants. And, of course, it faces the south end of Central Park. I have stayed there twice, once before the renovation, and now after. Neither time did I feel that I was staying at... more

This was my first stay at the recently renovated Jumeirah Essex House. My room did not have a full park view but I was on a high floor and could just catch a view of the park from the corner of the room. The room was not large but adequate for New York and was modern and recently renovated. The... more

Stayed for one night at the Essex House after my stay at the Marriot could not be extended and what a relief!

We had him reserve a couple of tickets and restaurants with transportation and every single one was done efficiently, which is more than You could say... more

I put my father up at the Essex house when he came to visit. I booked about a month ahead and got a "Junior Suite" for about $400 a night on Hotels.com (They bulk buy bulk, we were told). The room was not a traditional suite with two rooms but it was most certainly as comfortable as any suite I... more
