I checked into the Element initial during theng weekend. Lets just say they were experiencing growing pains and I had a few kinks. I was due to check in a month later and almost every improvement that I could have wanted was done. The staff are A+, the hotel is clean and the natural/earthy look that I like. Location...

We stayed at this hotel, before continuing our vacation elsewhere. I did not have high expectations, as the price was very reasonable, after all it is a hotel in Manhattan. This was our first visit to New York, so I cannot compare the service to other hotels in New York, but comparing the hotel to many other big city hotels,...

The staff is VERY helpful, free wine/beer and delicious appetizer happy hour and in suite full kitchens complete with pans, flatware and dishes=perfect. The rooms are beautiful, the bathrooms are spacious (for NYC) and the rooftop seating area has breathtaking views of the city. I had no problems with the elevator, 1-2 minutes. I would absolutely recommend this hotel.

We were in NYC to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary and picked this hotel as we used starwood points/$$ which was a good choice. However, on the night of our anniversary we thought we had plenty of time to get to our dinner reservation but because of the more than 25 minute wait for the only working elevator (the lobby...

We decided to stay at this hotel because we were looking for a location near Times Square. When we got there we were just in time for their Happy Hour which included food and free beer and wine. We really liked our room (which was small) but it was clean and modern. The shower was great too (some reviews talked...

Stayed 2 nights and have to say it gave a pretty good first impression. The lobby, room is modern and clean. It took us only 10 min to walk to Times Square and it's right next to Port Authority Bus Terminal. However for close to $300 a night, I'd prefer a hotel that doesn't give me stress in the world's...

Here is the low down on this hotel. If you plan ahead you can get great deals in the $225 a night range. If you pay more than don't come here and stay somewhere else. This is a no frills hotel meaning....no bar, no restaurant, no room service. They do have a gym and 6 computers in the lounge area....
