Fabulous hotel
Wonderful experience! Clean and quiet rooms, friendly staff, unbelievable spa/sun deck, great food and awesome rooftop bar. It was the little things that made a big difference too--mini hand sanitizers in the room (nice to take out into the city with us and often replenished by the time we got back for the day), free bottled water to take with us, turndown service with a bucket of ice and my glasses and book next to the bed stand was a nice touch, and my husband bought flowers and there was a vase in the room to use too! We got a summer deal through Expedia--3 nights and 1 airline ticket (husband coming in from different city on business) for $1200. This included free internet, $50 hotel credit and 3 days of breakfast (up to $90 each day). Wonderful. And the rooftop bar was splendid--nice bartenders, great ambiance and terrific view of the city. It'll be hard to stay anywhere else in Manhattan, but I'll always check the Peninsula first to see if we can afford again. A perfect weekend of sightseeing and relaxation.
