This hotel was lovely! just a short walk to Empire state building, it was great for location as you wasn't in this middle of the hustle and bustle like Times Sq but just a few minutes walk to get to it all. The guest room with double bed was very spacious and the bathroom was great with a large walk...

I've stayed here on 3 or 4 occasions over the past couple of years during business trips. Despite a supposed 'special rate' enjoyed by our company, the return-on-investment has to be at the very bottom-end of the value scale. To give a few examples: the front-of-house rooms are extremely noisy with vehicles hammering down Lexington well into the night and...

My husband, daughter and I stayed for the weekend in April because I was running a 1/2 marathon in Central Park. Our stay at the Affinia Shelburne was absolutely perfect. Our room was stylish, comfortable, and quiet. The bathroom was cool and modern, like being in a spa. The service was excellent too; we asked for an extra bed for...

Seven of us visited New York to celebrate my best frinds and my own 40th. We had the time of our lives! The hotel was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was clean and stylish. The area where the Shelburne is situated is excellent as it is so central, with the Empire State Building, the Chrysler and...

The staff on check in were very friendly and the room was lovely and a good size for NYC. The maid was great and the room always clean, all you'd expect was provided, plus the chocolate and nibbles section of the mini bar looked good too. The location was good, near to Grand Central, a few blocks walk into Time...

hotel is well situated in a quieter part of town. i had a good low price and therefore was not expecting 5star, you want 5star pay 5star and stay elsewhere. the room was a good size (1bedroom suite) decor could have been more up to date with a good lick of white paint instead of the brown walls, better lighting...

I've never been to New York as a tourist so I don't have any other hotels to compare the Shelburne to, but I did massive amounts of research before we left for affordable accommodations and I can't believe there could be a better value anywhere in this city. As everyone else has said, the entire staff (front desk, housekeeping, doormen)...

A pleasant but unremarkable entrance from the street leads to the trendily dark reception area of the hotl where the very friendly and efficient staff worked hard to overcome a problem with our booking (booked room not available) by giving us 2 rooms for the night and arranging transfer the following night. The rooms themselves, whilst small are very nice...
