Sachs Harbour Vacations from ₩919,840

Overall, we were very pleased with our stay. Everything was clean, the room was quiet, staff was helpful, and the location can't be beat. We never heard a peep from the hallway, other rooms, or even outside unless we opened a window. The water pressure in the shower left A LOT to be desired - I assume this is because it is an eco-friendly hotel, but we truly felt like we could not get our shampoo rinsed out of our hair. Breakfast is absolutely worth it, but be aware - you are going to wait. You are going to wait for the elevator to get to your floor. If you're lucky, there will be space for you to squeeze on. Then, you're going to wait to get checked in - and then you're going to wait for another elevator. Then you'll wait for a table. Once we were seated, there was never a true line for food in the buffet line. My advice is to go earlier - Morning 1, we left our hotel room around 9:15 and probably were not seated until 9:40. Morning 2, we left our room about 8:30 and were seated by 8:45 - definitely moved quicker!

Having worked in libraries when I was young and volunteered in a Nica library when I was old the name drew me to the hotel but also that it was on Madison Ave right by Bryant Park. Very cool without being hipster, yeah which means the hotel had a closet with plenty of hangers, drawers, the right amenities in addition to a great location, fantastic staff and yes lots of shelves with books. One floor not only had books but a piano with lots of drinks and snacks but also was opened 24/7. The "Rooftop" which was on my filters had an excellent creative comfortable design with a small menu for food and of course drinks, also had wonderful indoors spots. While with only 14 intimate floors you don't get the best sunsets but you get cracks between buildings and a pink sky above. I even found a book in the lobby of Magritte that was published in Spain and had photos of his paintings I had ever seen before. Not the icing on the cake but the candles to brighten my experience.

Loved the location and the staff was great. The property was in need of a refresh - tile in the shower was old, the elevator door was held together by duct tape, the towels were frayed and overall, it was just tired looking. The fitness area was being renovated which we were unaware of when we booked, which was disappointing.
