I would not go back here. Very stuffy and most of the staff need to be fired for lack of caring. The room (Deluxe One Bedroom Suite) was spacious but ancient in terms of amenities and furniture. The Dining Room was beautiful for dinner though, and the dinner staff were top notch. The bar was old but nice. It is... more

I stayed at the Carlyle over my 21st birthday last year, and it was an extremely beautiful, old NYC place to stay. Now, I've been to NYC 4 times and on no occasion have I ever expected huge rooms. The people who expect big rooms to go with their big prices shouldn't have such high expectations in NYC, unless you're... more

We just returned from a weekend at the Carlyle. I do not understand the negative reviews. This hotel is splendid in all categories. The service was perfectly polished and detailed, the best we ever received at any hotel. All the facilities were exceptionally clean. We got engaged over the weekend. When I made the reservation through Rosewood’s toll free reservations... more

Every hotel in the city was sold out that night and even was the Carlyle if you contacted them directly. I found a rate of 795+taxes on expedia and just booked it for a superior room. The first impression was a little weird because the outside in sunder contruction. You could tell it was a nice place though by the... more

For us, the Carlyle has been and still is the best hotel in NY, and in many cities. It is a traditional hotel, they always tried to keep the hotel's roots, even if it means you’ll not be staying in a modern, non-personal, 500 room hotel. This stay should be about enjoying the first quality service given by all the... more

We are members of the American Express Platinum Travel. We got a rate of $467 for a superior room with breakfast. Usually the room is about $800 a night so we took the deal. Checking in was very nice at around 10 pm. The clerk was helpful and friendly. When a celebrity checked in behind us we thought we had... more

Well, the Carlyle spends a lot of time telling you how exclusive it once was and showing pictures of all the famous people who have stayed there. Obviously it was another time before hotels became luxury properties and standards went up. When we checked in I asked that rollaways be put in the living room of our suite for my... more

I recently won a competition for a three night stay at the Carlyle in April. It is based on Madison avenue - perfect location with plenty of Taxi service nearby, central park literally a minutes walk away and the subway two blocks up on Lexington ave (a metro system that you can learn very quickly!) Ideal for people with alot... more

This is a fantastic hotel with consistently amazing service from every member of staff. I have stayed here twice and thoroughly enjoyed my stay and felt truly pampered, The style is traditional and rooms are very well equipped. The location in upper east is 1` block from Central Park and is away from the touristic hustle bustle in midtown. Highly... more
