10/10 Exceptional

Lovely hotel with a library room with refreshments as well as a roof top bar. My room was one of the smaller ones, and therefore cheaper, but plenty big enough for what I needed. A very comfy bed and welcome aircon. Close enough to things but far enough away to be quiet inside. Would definitely stay again and would recommend it.

We had a wonderful stay at the Library Hotel. The room was perfectly located around the sites and major transportation locations. The temperature did mess up the ac two days but the staff was so accommodating to help get us through the nights. I would highly recommend the Library Hotel to my friends and anyone looking to travel to NYC to check out the sites!

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was extremely helpful, polite and went out of their way to help us. We were having trouble getting a cab, I believe his name was Oscar, went out into the pouring rain to hail us a cab. The library room on the second floor was a great spot to hang out and have some snacks and refreshments. The room was very quaint, clean and comfortable. We had a free breakfast in the restaurant, this was a nice sit down with wait staff and full menu, not a continental spread. They did offer fruit and other items in the library also. The entire experience was excellent. We will definitely stay there again.
