Disappointed :(
My husband and I visited New York for the 1st time and stayed at The Belvedere from Dec. 4th-7th. I booked it based on it's location, star rating and the reviews from other guests. I was quite disappointed in the rooms. I booked through Expedia for TD and it had mentioned that this hotel was recently renovated therefore I assumed that everything was new so it was a let down for me to see that my room was very outdated and old. I mentioned this to the front desk and he told me that only some of the rooms had been renovated. I guess my $388 per night was for the old musty rooms; lucky me! Anyway, I found the location to be great, staff are friendly enough but the buidling is old and there is no air ventilation, I woke up unable to breathe for the 3 days I was there. I also could smell something a bit off in my room, it actually smelled like feces but I was scared to look around. I should have asked for another room. The bathrooms were ridicously small, when I washed my face over the sink, water poured everywhere onto my feet. I travel a lot for work and have stayed in many hotels and this one was well below par. I had some friends staying in NYC at the same time and they had better experiences for half the cost. I will not stay at this hotel again especially at the price I paid.
