Great NYC trip

We had a great stay at the Lucerne. We booked a deluxe suite and expected a much smaller room in NYC. It had a full separate space, a large bathroom and a lot of space in the bedroom including a dresser and a desk with a chair. The front desk staff was super helpful and the doormen were friendly and accommodating. My one small complaint was that the room was not cleaned until 6 pm on our first day, so we needed to wait and then the cleaning staff must have felt rushed because the room was not super clean, but it was fine and the beds were made and fresh towels left. Overall, great hotel, amazing location, would absolutely stay again.

My room was very dark and the walls are too thin. I could hear kids talking loudly across the hall late at night.

I loved the hotel, the ambience was great. The only thing I would add to the room is a small fridge, so that water and other drinks can be kept cold.

This hotel is in a wonderful location - near subways, museums, Central Park, Zabars, etc. There are numerous restaurants in the area in addition to Nice Matin which is attached to the hotel. I love the neighborhood which is very walkable.

Perfect for families

Clean, spacious family suite in a great neighborhood. Just steps to AMNH and Central Park. Little bit of an older building but it was cosy and convenient to what we wanted to see. Service was good to passable depending on the staff member at the front desk , but an overall positive experience!

Liked: Staff & service
The staff was excellent however there is something you should know about this building is that it’s very old school… There is no exhaust in the bathroom. You have to physically open the window… The air condition doesn’t work great. We had to call several times even though they tried to fix it… This would not be a good place to stay in the summer or in the winter, since there is no heater in the bathroom for when it’s cold. That being said it’s in a great location and it’s a 24 hour concierge.

Great hotel and would stay here again!

Hotel staff were very friendly and professional! The place was also very clean and close to a lot of public transit options. I wish regular rooms also did come with a microwave/fridge and not just the suites, but that would be the only takeaway I had from my stay there. I would definitely stay there again if I'm in NYC and would also recommend it to friends. The rooms were clean, spacious, in a convenient location, and the staff were super friendly and professional.

Lucerne Hotel had wonderful staff, loved the 24/7 doorman; room was very nice and bed and bedding was very comfortable. Room was not spacious though. Otherwise, I would highly recommend this place and would stay there again. Location was excellent with so many places to eat and felt safe. The American Museum of Natural History and Central Park are a 5 minute walk.
