    Nothing, we knew where and what we have booked and it was just great.

    Great room with more space than we expected and an amazing view. Lovely new hotel, that exceeded expectations. Nice facilities, enjoyed the roof top bar too.

    Stunning Views, Great Vibes and The Best Dang Home Fries.

    I booked my room through booking.com and upon check in, realized I did not have a city view room despite thinking I booked one online. The hotel, realizing the mistake and my disappointment, quickly offered me a second room with the view I was hoping for on my second night. I must have misunderstood the room I booked so my only advice would be to double check your view (because the city room is 100% worth it) and if you have any questions to call the hotel directly to confirm!

    The Arlo Midtown is the best hotel in New York. I stay here every chance I can and the hospitality, service and amenities blow me away every time. The staff is generous, accommodating, delightfully humorous and at risk of sounding creepy, all extremely good looking. I stayed here for my 30th birthday with my husband and the Arlo pulled out all the stops. It's a hotel that once you arrive you don't want to leave. Between the stunning city views, fabulous water pressure in the showers, good vibes of their upstairs patio and their newly renovated interior restaurant with some of the best cocktails I've ever had, it's a true gem. And if you think you've found the best home fries in NYC, you're incorrect. They're at the Arlo Midtown. I will take no notes.

    The only downside was the lack of a buffet breakfast, but the hotel still offered delicious breakfast options.

    Our stay at this hotel was simply fantastic! The central location near the subway and many nearby shops was perfect. The Times Square was just around the corner, making our exploration of the city very convenient. We could easily walk to many sights and had everything we needed right at our doorstep. The proximity to various restaurants and shopping options was also very convenient. Overall, it was a great stay and we would definitely recommend this hotel. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable. They provided me with great tips for restaurants and attractions in the area. All in all, I highly recommend the hotel and would gladly return at any time.

    This hotel was one of the best hotels I've ever been in. It gives you a feeling of high-end, updated and contemporary NYC vibe. It was so cool seeing an elevator operated by your room card. This room came with 2 complimentary canned water and fortune cookies which I very much enjoyed. The front desk staff was SO cool and nice. He told us about other Arlo hotels in Manhattan and in Europe somewhere. I'm planning on visiting other Arlo hotels in the future.

    We had an extended wait for the check in, which on a cold and wet day wasn’t appreciated even with a free coffee. The shower flooded the bathroom floor, even after asking for this to be looked at. There was no fridge in the room, the cooling box wasn’t connected and didn’t keep items cold. Small things that didn’t detract overall.

    We really liked the aesthetic and design of the interior of the hotel, a high end feel. We had a spacious and comfortable room, great bed. Very much enjoyed the gym, very clean and well maintained. Very close to Penn Station which was great for onward travel!

    Room quite snug but expected in manhattan. I would have appreciated some form of room guide (this may have been online and I missed it) as I didn’t find the safety deposit box until I was leaving (it was concealed in a drawer under the bed). Although I didn’t mind, some people may not like being able to hear noise from the rooftop bar if they are in a room on 26. Also if flying from JFK leave plenty of time. Took me nearly 2 hours to get back there in a taxi as the west side of midtown is incredibly congested. This was at 2:30pm.

    Clean, fresh and well located for the conference centre (15 mins walk), really enjoyed my stay. Thankfully had breakfast included in the room rate as this was of a very high standard. Would work out quite expensive if you paid daily. Loved the rooftop bar and cocktails (right next to my room on 26). Also good small shop and bar on ground floor. I particularly liked the bathroom products and the inclusion of a clothes steamer rather than an iron. Also mini fridge a great addition. All of the staff very friendly and helpful 😊.
