Allan
from Lincoln, GB stayed on December 10, 2003
"I have sent a e-mail complaining about the standard of service and the room we were given on arrival.One small bed for two people, in the rest of the world a twin room means two beds! We had to pay an extra 500 dollars to move to suite to enable us to sleep! We had other family members staying there and they had to check out and find another hotel as their room was so dirty they had to buy slippers to keep their feet clean! Not a great advert for your company. I do not know if i could risk using your company again. I would be pleased to receive your comments on this matter."

Situated on prestigious Club Row, 44th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, the Algonquin Hotel is located in the heart of Midtown Manhattan. Upon arrival guests find themselves within walking distance of the Broadway Theater, fashionable shopping on Fifth and Madison Avenues, The Empire State Building, Museum of Modern Art, Rockefeller Center, and Radio City Music Hall.
The Algonquin Hotel completed a multi-million-dollar historical restoration in July 2004. The newly appointed 165 guest rooms and suites have plush carpeting, new mattresses, bedspreads and drapery and hand selected antique furniture. Bathrooms have period wall coverings, fixtures and refinished soaking tubs. Plush carpeting and custom wallpaper, designed by New Yorker cartoonist Robert Mankoff, join antique light fixtures and prints in the hallways. Original marble stairs have been polished and layers of paint have been removed from the iron banisters to reveal beautifully detailed ironwork dating from 1902.
The Lobby, newly restored with writing desks, antique furniture in deep jewel tones of plum, mahogany caramel and olive, still retains the architectural properties, charm and ambiance long associated with this landmark hotel. Intimate arrangements of settees and chairs create the perfect environment for reading, writing, quiet contemplation or conversation and as a result, The Algonquin retains its position as a welcome oasis of civility amid the hectic pace of New York.
