“Perfect Place to Stay in Midtown”

Omni Berkshire Place

Jul 17, 2008

There are not enough good things I can say about this hotel. My family and I checked in on July 4 and stayed for seven nights. The overall decor of the hotel is fresh and nicely updated. I joined Omni's Select Guest program before we traveled, and that entitled us to complimentary room service coffee or other breakfast beverages each morning, and turn down service every night, including Yohoo for the kids, as well as chocolate chip cookies and chocolates on the pillow. We also got a room upgrade to a larger room that what we would have otherwise been given. The room decor was very attractive, and the bathroom was luxuriously appointed and huge, especially for New York. The best thing the hotel has going for it, besides the price, is the location at 52nd and Madison, a block or two from Rockefeller Center, and three avenues from the theater district. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. The only negatives were minor--the air conditioner seemed to blow harder at times that others, requiring it to be "reset" by turning it off and on again. We were always plenty cool at night (we always buy a cheap fan to have in the room anyway because we're from Texas and used to the noise and air movement a fan provides). Also, there is a construction project (high rise) underway immediately adjacent to the hotel on the 53rd street side, but since we were facing the front of the hotel (52nd street), we never heard any noise from the construction. There are three sides of the hotel not facing the construction, so you simply need to request a room on one of those sides of the hotel. Finally, our room was furnished with a beautiful, oversized armoire that serves as closet, bureau, and entertainment center, but the TV that fits in the armoire is not large, so if you are going to New York City to sit in your room and watch TV, this hotel is not for you. We weren't there to watch TV, so it was never an issue. In summary, stay here.

“Great Location and Great Service”

Omni Berkshire Place

5 of 5 stars

1/1 found this review helpful

Great 4th of July package. Great for a quick Yankee getaway. The service was outstanding, including select guest delivery of beverages in the am with a newspaper. Upgraded to a suite, kids loved the plasma tv in the living room area. The bathroom was large with a huge shower, all marble.

The location was perfect for our activities. 1 block from St. Pats Cathedral, three blocks from Rockefeller Center. Shopping galore including the NBA store half a block away.

About six blocks from subway to Yankees game, take the 4 express. When you get on at 59th street and lexington, go down to the #4 express, less stops.

Burger Heaven, three of them right around the corner has great burgers and salads. Relish for the burgers is good. Quick fast service, at a NY reasonable price.

Overall we were able to walk to central Park, Times Square and Central Station from our hotel. Had children age 9 and 13, no problem, actually fun to walk and people watch. Safe area with a lot of people out and about.

The Omni is a quality hotel with great service.

I stayed at this hotel last July while on vacation. The staff is very nice and make sure you are happy while staying there. It was not too far from Times Square or Central Park. The rooms were very nice and clean. The view from our room was amazing at night! I would stay in this hotel again anytime! :]

“Incredible Service with a Smile!”

Omni Berkshire Place

5 of 5 stars
Millersville, MD
Jun 23, 2008

This was our first stay at an Omni property and this property far exceeded our expectations. Simply, this hotel is intimate, clean and served by the best in the hospitality business. We were greeted with smiles at all times and the staff made it their business to remember guest faces, for such simple and important greetings such as "welcome back" when walking through the front door. Housekeeping was amazing, with the turn down service being top notch. Front desk staff was courteous and helpful. Each member of the concierge staff was more than knowledgeable about the city and its offerings. Also, the building being centrally located would be an understatement. We plan on staying at the Omni Berkshire for all future trips to NYC. This hotel is well worth the money!

“Comfortable and convenient”

Omni Berkshire Place

5 of 5 stars
Derby, United Kingdom
Jun 7, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

We stayed here for a special anniversary weekend. From the moment we arrived the staff were friendly and helpful. We had asked for a quiet room for this special occasion. As it turned out this would have been overlooking a building site and we were given an upgraded room in a quieter part of the hotel. On returning from our first evening out we found chilled champagne in the room - an unexpected pleasure to start the weekend.

We chose this hotel because of the convenient location and were not disappointed. A lot of the sights were within walking distance and for those that were not the subway was only a few minutes walk away.

Our room was large and very comfortable. The staff were friendly and attentive. On returning from a particularly wet afternoon of sightseeing we were spied by a member of housekeeping who immediately bought extra towels to the room along with two large umbrellas for the further wet weather that was forecast.

The bed being turned down each evening (and the chocolates on the pillow) along with the bowl of 'help yourself' fruit in the foyer were nice touches.

We would definitely recommend this hotel to our friends.
