Beautiful hotel located right in the heart of the theatre district. For example if you're in town to see the hit Broadway show Hamilton, the Richard Rodgers Theatre is directly across the street. On a cost and location basis alone you won't find a better hotel than the Hotel Edison. The hotel is currently (as of Sept 2024) in the final stages of being remodeled. Our floor was done but you could smell fresh paint when the elevator doors would open up on other floors. The updated rooms are nicely decorated and everything is very clean and modern. We had a room with one king bed, a night table and a desk with a chair. We wished the room had a second chair because one person was always forced to sit on the bed. The bed itself was very comfortable but we did have to call housekeeping for several extra pillows. Also there is no sheet for the bed, just a duvet (comforter) which was comfortable but also heavy and very hot. We stayed there end of August and last thing you want covering you in the summer is thick, hot duvet. A light cotton sheet would've been nice so you could stil cover yourself at night without having to use the hot comforter. Also important to note that the duvet doubles as the bedspread so if you have issues with touching and using a hotel room bedspread (which I usually do) then you're gonna have a problem because, as stated above, there's no other blankets or sheets, just the duvet. The only reason I didn't call housekeeping for an extra sheet was because the duvet looked and felt like it was brand new and was very clean (as I said our room and floor had just been remodeled). I'd be far less inclined to use the duvet on a return visit because it'll no longer be new. Our one major gripe about the hotel room was the bathroom. The bathroom itself was nice (it too had been remodeled) and was very clean but was very small. It had a decent size shower with an all glass door and a trough bathroom sink. The sink was modern and nice looking but it was too wide for the size of the room and there was no counter space whatsoever to put anything like soap, toothpaste, hair supplies etc. Also the sink itself was far too shallow so you had to keep the water pressure from the tap very low or else water would splash all over you and the floor. The sink was a minor inconvenience though compared to the toilet situation which was a total nightmare. First off the toilet was way too low to the ground. It reminded me of the toilets at a kids preschool that's how low it was, like it was designed for 4yr olds to sit on. Also the toilet was wedged so tightly in-between the glass shower door and the sink that you couldn't spread your legs at all while you were sitting on the toilet. Now I know that sounds hilarious and believe me we had *a lot* of laughs about the ridiculousness of the situation but once the laughs subsided it quickly became a huge pain in the arse (no pun intended) for our whole stay. There was absolutely no way that a grown adult (or even young teen) of any size could sit on that toilet and open their legs even slightly to do their business. God forbid you're a woman and it's that time of the month cause you are totally screwed. I assure you this is no exaggeration either. You could be the size of a tiny runway model or heaven forbid a plus sized person and either way there's no way in hell your legs are spreading open even half an inch sitting on that too low toilet. It was a nightmare because you had to stand up to finish and the bathroom itself was so small it made for a lot of very uncomfortable moments every time you went in there to do your business. Hotel Pros: Beautiful hotel, gorgeous lobby, nice updated and very clean rooms, great price, prime location. Hotel Cons: Bathroom is awful, especially toilets (in rooms with king size bed). No bed sheets, just a hot duvet. Only one chair in room. No mini-fridge. Hotel service menu on tv didn't work and tv itself didn't always work properly either.

Rommel and team were amazing. Fantastic service all around; even to the point of coordinating elevators during busy times. Rooms are smaller but it’s NY so I expected that. They were clean and functional and the beds are comfy. Only suggestion would be a mini fridge in the room. We will definitely book again.
