Great Stay - but a long wait for the lift
Arrived after flight from the UK and a hair-raising trip from JFK; efficient check-in. Room was a little on the small side (for US standards but probably fair by New York standards). Being on the 41st floor made up for it though; the room looked directly over neighbouring buildings but could also see the river which was nice. Well located hotel - very easy to World Trade Center, Battery park for ferries to the statue of liberty and a lovely walk along the Hudson. I had dinner in the hotel the first night - nothing special, would recommend the neighbouring Irish Pub instead for better food and atmosphere, but breakfast was good. The only downside of being so high up was the long wait for the lift - only 3; not many rooms per floor but with 40+ floors the wait was often 5mins or more. Room was quiet but rather dated - would benefit from a facelift. Having said that, I'd stay here again give its location.
