Alexandra B. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Staying at The Plaza had been a long-held dream of ours, so arriving felt incredibly special. It was a real pinch yourself moment for us. The hotel itself is beautiful, our room was elegant and spacious, and the location simply could not have been better for our five-night stay. The Valentine’s flower display in the foyer was stunning and really set the tone on arrival. That said, the experience didn’t quite meet expectations overall. I had booked through BA Holidays and had confirmed in advance that we would have a double room with a roll-out bed for our 16-year-old. At check-in, we were offered an alternative room for an additional $150 per night, which we declined. That was absolutely fine, however, when we arrived in our room at 10pm after 15 hours of travelling, there was no roll-out bed prepared. We had to call housekeeping to have it arranged. It was resolved within about 30 minutes and wasn’t difficult, but after a long journey, it wasn’t ideal. Had our daughter been younger, it would have been much more problematic, as we would have wanted her settled immediately. The initial setup also meant there weren’t enough towels or amenities for three guests on the first night. The room itself was beautiful, but there was no coffee machine or cups provided. I’m sure this could have been requested, but at this level and price point, I would have expected it as standard. The bathroom was impressive in design, though the toiletries felt somewhat underwhelming and limited in quantity. The storage is fairly lacking despite being a very spacious room. The staff were generally lovely and helpful throughout. I do appreciate that in such an iconic and busy property, it must be challenging to manage access between residents and visitors, but at this price level I expected a more seamless and consistently outstanding experience, something hotels like Claridge’s in London execute extremely well. Overall, The Plaza is undeniably iconic and wonderfully located, and we are glad we experienced it. However, while beautiful, the stay didn’t fully deliver the exceptional standard we had anticipated.

I stayed the night to celebrate my husky’s 13th birthday (she loves nyc and the balto statue in Central Park). What a treat! I will have to splurge for myself at the plaza more often. The special birthday doggie cookies were a lovely treat. Everyone was very kind to my dog and I connected with several staff members and guests to bond over our dogs. Room was exceptionally clean and just beautiful. I look forward to coming back!

this is the first hotel I've stayed at where I can remember not having complimentary coffee. Not only do you not have coffee, but I was charged $17 dollars for a cup. I understand you cater to rich people, but offering coffee doesnt seem like a big ask. I probably wont stay again.

I splurged to have the ultimate luxury experience and I felt like it was no different than other mid tier hotels. Would not really recommend for the cost.

Your comments are invaluable as we strive to enhance our offerings and ensure our guests feel they receive exceptional value.
