The rooms are tastefully decorated and clean but very small. The location is fantastic. Day staff attentive and friendly, but there are problems with dawn staff. The price, as any hotel in New York rather than ideal. The lobby does not give a good impression. We had a pleasant stay and would recommend the hotel but there was a big...

Loved the Mela! Absolutely spotless. One minute walk to times square. The best location possible to walk to all you want to see! Checked in early with no problem. Room was not huge but certainly adequate, and the bathroom was larger than many I have encountered in NYC hotels. Great amenities in the bathroom. Before arriving we signed up for...

Hotel Mela is an average hotel. Front Desk & Doorman - very friendly but never at the door or front desk. I always needed to wait at the front desk and wait for someone to come from the back room. Room - we were upgraded to a penthouse. It was clean, had 2 baths, and good size but not what...

This was Avery nice hotel for a weekend in NY. I booked through qwikbook and it was a great value. The rooms are small, to be sure, but the bed is comfortable, the bathroom perfectly nice. I would happily stay there again.

After having booked a whole week at Mela at a very discounted price, for a standard room, I was very grateful to be informed at my check in that I had been upgraded to a Deluxe King room at the 16th floor! Although some people may miss some hotel´s facilities, such as a larger lobby, breakfast room or spa, rooms...

Couldn't believe how close to Times Square this hotel was. We got the rooms at a discount price (Travel Zoo) which made it unbelievable value. Rooms an okay size, clean and nice decor. Good TV channel range. Mini bar very overpriced ($10 for a bottle of water), but guess thats what you get in a New York hotel. Literally 3...
