I have stayed at the Hotel Giraffe the last 3 times I've travelled to New York, and I just can't beat the location and overall experience. The location is central to so many things within walking distance, it's across the street from a beautiful park and so many restaurants and attractions. The rooms are very spacious, especially for Manhattan, and the hotel is quiet. I enjoy starting each day with a coffee and breakfast in the lobby. The staff is very friendly, helpful and attentive. I will continue to make this my home base whenever possible.

“Giraffe hotel”

The front desk was nice. The beds were comfortable! The morning breakfast was great! The hotel gave us a list of restaurants to go. The balcony was nice especially it was nice to open the doors when it was in the 70’s

“Great location, great staff, great rooms”

Because I travel so much, I put a lot of weight on the functional aspects of a hotel. Is it in a good location? Is the room well designed (storage, coffee, bathroom layout, bed comfort, lighting, heat/AC, smart TV, towels)? Is the staff friendly? How good are their recommendations? How is the … more

Because I travel so much, I put a lot of weight on the functional aspects of a hotel. Is it in a good location? Is the room well designed (storage, coffee, bathroom layout, bed comfort, lighting, heat/AC, smart TV, towels)? Is the staff friendly? How good are their recommendations? How is the included breakfast? This hotel was great in every aspect. Also, the rooms are large for New York. The lobby is a nice place to sit. There are so many good restaurants in the area that it’s hard to choose. The staff recommended 2 places for lunch and both were fabulous and reasonable.

“Still good, however...”

We have stayed at this hotel several times in the past years, it is still a very good hotel, however this time it felt a bit different. The rooms are still nice, clean, the bed is comfortable and provides a good sleep. The prices, however, went up to the roof. The staff was not what we remembered … more

We have stayed at this hotel several times in the past years, it is still a very good hotel, however this time it felt a bit different. The rooms are still nice, clean, the bed is comfortable and provides a good sleep. The prices, however, went up to the roof. The staff was not what we remembered from the past. In the last month we stayed there twice and the first time we checked-out nobody even asked how was our stay. The second time, there was one exception, one gentleman at the reception that was really nice and welcoming. Most of the days a lot of the staff seemed like they did not want to be there, the staff at the breakfast included. Breakfast is basically a modest self-service buffet breakfast, not really sure why they need a personnel there. The rest of the day the bar it is self-service anyway. Availability of fruit and tea at any time of day is a nice touch, though. All in all it was a good stay, but we are still not sure whether the value for money will still be there in the future.
