This spring, my boyfriend traveled extensively for work up to NYC and stayed at a number of hotels, many of which he liked. However, after awhile he began to only book at 'On the Ave'. Reasons for this (and I can vouch, as I spent a week with him at this hotel) include: a) Location: 2 blocks from several subways;... more

Stayed at this hotel in a weekend last June. I was specifically looking for a place in the Upper West and it took a lot of online searches to find this one! I must say I was very pleased with my choice. I got a Superior Room with a view directly from the hotel website - there are good discounts... more

We just spent 4 days-3 nights at the hotel. We have stayed at various hotels in New York for years--from one-stars to the Plaza and everything in between. On the Ave is without a doubt the best value for money hotel. We stayed in one of the family suites (Rm 1910, I believe). This has a spacious bedroom with view... more

My husband and I stayed at On the Ave May 10-14. This was our first Upper West Side stay and what a great location in which to stay! This hotel was one of two that we stayed at on this trip. We booked a Penthouse Loft on the hotel's website using one of their specials and got a great price.... more

Assuming they don't raise their prices this will be our new home away from home in NYC. The good: location, location, location. Great walking neighborhood on a quiet street in the upper west side. This place is quasi hotel and quasi residence as you feel apart of the neighborhood staying here. Rooms are comfortable, spacious by NYC standards and a... more

On the Ave is the perfect location to stay in Manhattan. Easy access to subways on 72nd and 79th Streets. Great shops nearby. Fairways supermarket has lots of fresh fruit and vegetables too. On the Ave is classy, elegant, great decor, clean sheets and towels, comfortable beds. No complaints at all. We found a deal on hotels.com which made it... more

Short Review. Best experienced if you pay more for higher floor and private balcony. Wonderful neighbourhood – lots of cooked and uncooked food (restaurants, diners/delis, markets), very close to two subway stops, residential vs. touristy area. Rooms are clean, but cleaning staff uneven (some give you somewhat dirty towels and bath mats) and do strange things (e.g., leave balcony chairs... more

Thanks to other tripadvisor reviews, I booked 3 nights at On the Ave. First of all the location can't be beat! It's on 77th Street at Broadway, smack in the heart of the Upper West Side or as I like to call it, food heaven. Zabar's and H&H bagels are 3 blocks away. Right across Broadway is the Westside Market... more

For a stay on the Upper West Side, this hotel is wonderfully located (two blocks from the subway; short walk to Central Park). We had a nice room overlooking Broadway, and it was high up enough to be very quiet at night. The decor is lovely -- contemporary but not archly hip. I think the rooms are slightly larger than... more
