Our stay at the Park Lane Hotel was truly unforgettable! The breathtaking views of Central Park from our suite were phenomenal and added a magical touch to our trip. The service provided by the staff was exceptional, with many going above and beyond to ensure our comfort. However, we did encounter some minor issues with room service and bathroom cleanliness that could be improved. Overall, this hotel remains a fantastic choice for anyone visiting New York City, especially for its prime location and spacious accommodations.

Overall, the hotel had a few ups and downs. The rooms were quite decent and offered a lovely side view of Central Park, which was an unexpected bonus. However, some amenities felt outdated, and the absence of basic facilities like tea or coffee was surprising. The location was fantastic, allowing easy access to major attractions, and the staff was friendly and helpful despite some inconsistencies in service. The added nightly tax was a little frustrating, but the overall experience was enjoyable, particularly given the vibrant atmosphere of New York City.

The hotel boasts a prime location conveniently situated across from Central Park, making it easy to explore nearby attractions. The rooms are spacious and offer a modern touch, though some aspects feel a bit outdated and require attention. While the staff is generally accommodating, there were some issues with service consistency. Additionally, the resort fees were a disappointment and felt excessive for what was provided.

My stay at the Park Lane Hotel was quite enjoyable overall. The highlight was definitely the phenomenal views of Central Park, which made every moment spent in my room so memorable. The service, while generally polite, had its moments of inconsistency, and the dining options left a bit to be desired considering the prices. Still, the location is unbeatable, right in the heart of Manhattan and close to all the subway stations. It’s a solid choice for anyone looking to be near the park, but some improvements in service and dining would enhance the experience even more.
Rooms

The room offered stunning views of Central Park from the 28th floor, but the bathroom was surprisingly small for the size of the room. I did notice a considerable amount of dust in some corners, which detracted from the cleanliness impression.

I found the hotel has some appealing views and the location is quite convenient right by Central Park. However, the overall experience is hindered by the outdated facilities and inconsistent service. While the room size was generous, it really did feel old and in need of modernization. It's not the best value for what I paid, considering the issues I faced during my stay.
