We stayed here in 2007 and had a great experience. This time (early May 2011), our 3-day visit was completely different. When I checked in , they upgraded us to a large suite. Oddly, when the doorman took us to the room there was an envelope on the dining room table with someone else's name on it. I didn't think...

This was our favourite hotel on our recent big trip. Our room was huge, the beds super comfortable, the kitchen useful (there is a full sized fridge and a full stove with oven (not that we used it;)), the bathroom very nice with good toiletries. The location is great - very near 5th Avenue at the Rockefeller Center with Union...

I have an annual trip to NYC with girlfriends and we've stayed at this hotel for 8 years. Even Sammy remembers us when we get out of our car! We just happened upon it when making travel arrangements for our 2nd trip, and we will never stay anywhere else! The Dble Jr. Suite is perfect for us -- plenty of...

Beginning with the valet parking and doormen, the Affinia 50 is impressive. The front desk staff was extremely helpful and friendly; we arrived about an hour before check-in and they let us hang out on the second floor club room for a while til the room was ready. The club room has great decor, is very relaxing, has a business...

I stayed here with two girlfriends and we were looking for a clean hotel, no bed bugs and good location. We had all three. The hotel was clean, no bed bags and it was handy for day time trips and late night hanging out. They have complimentary wines and nibbles (the latter addictive) in the club room from 6 to...

We stayed at this hotel and used it as a base for our Daughter's wedding. It was incredible to leave from such a central location. Annette the rooms were adorable and Sam you were so helpful. All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful at all times of the day and night. Nothing was to much trouble. Housekeeping worked around...

Friendly and comfortable hotel in East Side Midtown, at competitive ratings. I have been a guest of Affinia 50 (formerly Plaza 50) many times in the last forty years or so. If you are looking for a comfortable hotel, in a very friendly atmosphere, moderately priced Affinia is the right place Rooms are well seized and comfortable, equipped with the...

My trip to NY was a trip that I would never forget. This was my first time to the city and it was far better than I imagined. I am so glad that we decided to book this hotel for our girlfriends getaway. It did not disappoint. All of the reviews that I read about this hotel were correct. The...

We spent 5 nights at the Affinia 50 which had been recommended by a colleague. All of the staff were so friendly and helpful and this really helped make our stay a brilliant one. 5th Ave, Grand Central Stn, Rockefeller Centre, Central Park and Bloomingdales are all within easy walking distance so could not have been better placed. We did...
