Great weekend getaway
We had a great time staying at the 70 Park Avenue this past weekend. Like previous stays at Kimptons, the room was very nice and had interesting furnishings, and the staff were very welcoming and helpful. The doorman was very friendly with my son and remembered him the next day when we checked out. They also waived the fee for the rollaway bed and gave us a $15 minibar credit for being Kimpton InTouch members (plus the free wifi). The area right around the hotel is relatively quiet, but it's close to subways, Grand Central, and lots of attractions, and also easy to get to from the Queens-Midtown Tunnel or the FDR Drive. And the best part was that there was a parking spot right in front of the hotel, so we didn't have to pay for parking (can't guarantee everyone will get the lucky, though). Overall, a great place for a weekend getaway.
