Reviewed by Roy G. of Austin, TX on Feb-2008 Stayed at the Property - Feb-2008 My trip began with a horrible 9 hour layover in another city (due to weather), so I arrived at The Benjamin very road weary. The minute I stepped through the Benjamin's doors, I felt like I was treated like a dignitary. Then to come to a room with unbelievable comfort and amenities, I was floored for all that I got for what I paid. Plus the location was unbeatable.
Pros:	Staff, Rooms and Location
Cons:	Can

Reviewed by Angela S. of of NH on Jul-2007 Stayed at the Property - Jul-2007 My husband and I stayed at the Benjamin for our 5th wedding anniversary for a trip. When we checked in we were told that the hotel was slow so they would upgrade us. We told them that we were celebrating our fifth wedding anniversary so she gave us a 1 bedroom with a verandah. We were very happy with the room. It was very clean and housekeeping was wonderful. The only slight complaint I have is that the bathrooms were rather small. It was impossible for two people to be in there at one time. No counter space near the sink to place personal items. Had a very enjoyable stay at this hotel.
Pros:	staff
Cons:	size of bathrooms

Reviewed by Cocoa B. of Portland of ME USA on Feb-2007 Stayed at the Property - Feb-2007 I've stayed in several hotels in NYC and this is my new favorite. Entire hotel staff was friendly and helpful. Room was very clean and quite large by NY standards. It was also ready for us when we arrived at 10:30 AM. Only complaint would be the small bathroom, but how much time does one spend in the bathroom? I will be staying here again as soon as possible!

Reviewed by Marshall C. of CA USA on Jan-2007 Stayed at the Property - Jan-2007 This was one of many trips to NYC, but maybe the best ever hotel and I've stayed at the Waldorf (just across the street). The lobby is small and the elevators seem a little small, but once you're in your room, it's really a small slice of paradise. One of the most comfortable beds that I've slept in. With a selection of pillows that I've never even heard of - they let you choose whatever pillow you want and bring it to you. Just a short walk to Rockefeller. Have an apple at the front desk too. It's worth every cent!
Pros:	The beds are amazing!
Cons:	No plasma TV, if that's a problem.
