Would not return!!
After booking a four night stay at the Edison hotel, I emailed the hotel directly to confirm that I had booked a suite with two double beds and a pull out sofa bed. I received an email confirming these exact details the same day which all looked promising, how wrong I was!
On arriving at the hotel, I was a little disappointed at how different, or should I say run down, the exterior of the hotel was compared to the pictures on the web and within brochures. 
Once inside, however, the lobby/reception area was a little better. This feeling soon faded when we began the check in process. We were booked in by the 'assistant manager' who booked us into a double room with a pull out sofabed (I was travelling with my sister and my father) on explaining that this room was unsuitable and on producing the email confirming the booking I had made for a specfic type of room, the assistant manager told me over and over again that the hotel did not operate a policy where the would guarantee a specific room and the member of staff who sent me the email was wrong to do so.
On attempting to discuss the situation with the assistant manager, she constantly spoke over me telling me she was trying to explain what the hotel policy was. Not very professional or polite, I thought!
The assistant manager then told me that she could give us another room that one of us could stay in - a bit of a compromise we were prepared to make until she said it was going to to cost us $229.00 per night!!
Clearly that wasn't happening. On asking, again, to see 'the' manager, the assistant manager went into a back office and reappered five or so mins later when she, in a very unfriendly manner, told me she had a suite with three beds she would move us to, excellent, I thought. 
Where to start with the 'suite'. The bathroom was awful. The grout between the tiles was black and mouldy, the toilet bowl was situated in such a stupid postion that you had to step over it to get into the bathroom itself. The shower was little more than a warm drip. Not great. 
The beds were comfortable but the room badly needs redecorated. The carpets were threadbare and the walls were filthy, there was even a bootprint halfway up our wall!!
In saying all this however, I must say, we did sleep very well as it was very quite (21st floor) and the bed linen was clean. 
And now to Cafe Edison. This 'restaurant' is attached to the hotel, I believe it is rented independently but to the average guest, one would presume that it was part of the hotel. 
We were fortunate enough to only enter this place once. We went for breakfast on Tuesday morning. 
The first word that springs to mind regarding this place is 'dire'. Service was quick, thankfully, so quick, infact, that my sister's tea cup had not even been cleaned on the outside after another unfortunate patron has drank from it!!
After just one bite of my toast, my eyes suddenly locked onto the mouse that ran across the dining room!! We, quite clearly left, immediately, despite the waiter shouting that we had not paid the bill. We never did pay the bill!
On complaining to the manager, I have to admit that he dealt with the complaint promptly and he himself was horrified and embarrassed by the mouse situation. 
Financial compensation was offered to us and accepted by us on check out. 
We will return to New York but I have to say, we will never set foot in Hotel Edison again and we will not recommend it to anyone.
