Our 5 night stay at the Library hotel was quite nice. I've never been to New York before, and was excited to stay in a manhattan hotel that was right in the thick of things. The hotel is located close to the New York Public Library and Grand Central Terminal, as well as a fair walk (20min) from Central Park.... more

We spent one night here in a petite full room the day after Christmas. The room was small, but well-organized and did not feel too small for us. We paid about $300 including taxes. The staff were friendly, the room was very nice, and the reading room was lovely. There is a daily complimentary wine and cheese reception in the... more

After making reservation online directly with the hotel, they phoned to confirm and let me know about concierge services. Never had a hotel do that before! I had them arrange town car service as my arrival and departure flights were both in the wee hours of the AM. There was a bit of lack of clarity as to limo pricing... more

We spent three weekend nights and greatly enjoyed the small European feel of the Library Hotel. The service is very attentive and personal, and the second floor Library gathering room is comfortable and welcoming. The breakfast was more than continental, less than British full board, and just right for my husband and me, as we intended to have lunches and... more

We have just returned from a long weekend at the Library Hotel. This little gem of a hotel is just perfect, with friendly staff who cannot do enough for you. It has excellent rooms (big for New York) which are tastefully decorated and extreamly clean. The complimentary breakfast, cheese & wine, coffees, cakes etc, were really appreciated (and saved a... more

We did a lot of research prior to booking this hotel and chose it mainly based on the reviews on Tripadvisor. The hotel is a good choice if you must stay in Manhattan while visiting NY. The rooms are comfortable, and the location is good. The staff are great (except for one of the Librarians who was a little snooty)... more
