It ‘felt’ good. Small, personal, professional while being warm and friendly. Clean and well appointed room. Good additional facilities like the ‘Reading room’ on level 2.
And it is very well located on the edge of Mid-town and close to Grand-Central.
Overall it was very good value. We will certainly stay here when next in NY!

The Library Hotel was our second choice, after not being able to get reservations at the French Quarter Apartments in Hells Kitchen. We based our decision to stay here purely on trip advisor reviews. The hotel is exactly what you see in the pictures….no opulent lobby or leisure amenities, but rather a smaller style hotel with what we would class...

The bottom line is, I would stay here again next time I am in New York. The breakfast is great value, the location couldn't be better and the amenities (afternoon wine and cheese, roof top bar, room service menu, etc) are exactly what you would want. The rooms are tiny, but this is what you should expect in New York....

My husband and I travelled to NY for the first time in May 2011 as a belated 50th birthday celebration for me. We picked the Library Hotel from reviews from Trip Advisor and we were not disappointed. The hotel is lovely, as are the staff. They can't do enough for you and are not overbearing but are there if you...

We stayed in a Deluxe Queen Room at the Library Hotel for a week in May. The premise of the hotel is what first interested us, and we were not disappointed. The lobby, breakfast room, and bedrooms are each filled with books on various topics. Our room was on the Religion floor and included some interesting reading matter. The room...

This hotel is lovely. It is a short walk from the New York Public Library and from Grand Central Terminal. Its staff are very helpful, and provide excellent service. For me, the only disadvantage was breakfast, which was served in the smallish Reading Room, and was not varied enough for my liking. When I visit New York City again, I...

Great location, Madison Avenue and 41st Street. Rooms, staff and facilities were exceptional. The breakfast buffet and daily wine and cheese happy hour were outstanding. Really enjoyed our stay and had a wonderful time.

We live in Manhattan but stayed at the Library Hotel for my daughters wedding and had the sunday brunch at the Hotel. We loved the ambience and the library decor but mostly we loved the staff. Family and friends enjoyed the 2nd floor where breakfast was served in the morning but which served the rest of the day as a...

Great hotel in good location close to grand central, empire state and fifth avenue.
On booking hotel we requested a quiet room on a high floor which was provided and was really quiet affording a good nights sleep.
This was a replacement honeymoon for us and the hotel also provided a bottle of wine which was a lovely touch
