We choose to do a mini holiday over Easter break and visit NYC. It was our daughter's first trip and my second. We choose this hotel because it is close to Central Park, smoke free and the nightly price was well within out budget and significantly less than the other hotel we stayed at in NY, The New York Palace....

I stayed at this property for several weeks while I was on a long-term assignment for my work in New York City. I enjoyed myself so much here - the location, the friendly staff, the beautiful furnishings and an overall sense of security. Central Park is literally a two-minute walk from AKA. My favorite route was to come out of...

My wife and I have stayed at three different AKA properties in NYC during the Christmas and New Years holidays.We find the consistency of operation first class; the apt. spaces residental in layout and value for stay is equal if not superior to any five star mid-town destination.The AKA Central Park is our favourite because of the people,location and apt...

We arrived late at night from San Francisco and were given a one-bedroom apartment at the back of the hotel. The bedroom overlooked a massive air conditioning unit, which kept us awake all night. After threatening to leave the next day (even though we had paid for six nights in advance), we were moved into a suite at the front...

Dear Resident Thank you for choosing AKA Central Park and for your feedback. With our location in the heart of the city that never sleeps, many NYC hotels have to deal with some level of street activity. As we strive to provide a comfortable and relaxing stay for all our residents, AKA Central Park is currently investing in an additional... more

My wife and daughters (20 and 23) recently spent 7 nights at the AKA Central Park and had a terrible experience there. The hotel is noisy (as mentioned in another review), the service was very poor - simple requests had to be made repeatedly because they were ignored (eg bringing up packages delivered to the hotel, or obtaining a key...

We had a great time at AKA. On our honeymoon with our 10 month old baby we booked a one bedroom junior suite and were given a very nice 12th floor room. The staff were always very corteous, and the cleaning ladies did a great job in keeping our room clean and tidy (with a little one that this can...

We chose this hotel for its location & its claim to be a boutique apartment hotel. All this is true, except for one major problem. It is directly opposite the Park Lane & Plaza hotels. All night through, garbage dumpster trucks & delivery trucksback up, load, bang trash bins etc. We went through four rooms in 7 days until we...

I was only there for one night but it was a nice hotel. Clean, spacious, very comfortable bed. It had an apartment complex feel to it....kind of like you lived there. I stayed in room 308 and the only bad thing I can say is that they were collecting garbage right outside the room at 9pm on a Monday night....

I know this place is not the cheapest option but trust me if you can stretch your money that bit further it is worth booking as it will add a different dimension to your trip to New York – opposed to feeling like a tourist you will feel like a local! We love the city so much we decided to...
