Top New York Hotel Reviews

New York Marriott Marquis

New York Marriott Marquis

10/10 Excellent
"What was the most important factor for me was that I arrived early and my room was ready. My check in process was quick and the gentleman that waited on me was so kind and showed professionalism throughout my process. I also enjoy the restaurants Revel, but the bar area was slow I believe they could use a few more bartenders. The Starbucks employees were the kindness people I have ever encountered in a Starbucks. All of them seem to love their job and customers were their priority. Definitely, the best group of Starbuck employees I have met. Overall, my stay was outstanding."

8/10 Good
"The room was good but small, and there was no coffee machine in the room. I have never been in a room before without one. There was also no coffee station in the lobby so I had to go out to find coffee at a local place when I woke up. I really enjoyed the music they played in the lobby and the upscale Mexican restaurant."
