Not good

Arrived at 3:00 - keys were not working. Went out for a walk. Came back at 4:00. key worked only for one of our rooms - by the time we got in the rooms we had less than a half hour to get ready for the opera. Bathroom is ridiculous - just try it. Heater button broken so too hot all night. hand shower did not work. You have to be 6'4" to reach the towels. Ad syas 2 restaurants but there are none.

The lobby area is very nice and well maintained. The rooms are very outdated, we had to ask for ice to be brought to our room every night, things were falling apart in the room. Hallways are very dark. Hotel staff were great and the rooftop lounge was cool.

Our stay wasn't the best, the first night our air was not working in the room and it was 80 degrees. They had an engineer come to "fix it" and he turned it off and back on and said let it run and it should get cooler. In the morning we woke up to 83 degrees and the shower flooded half of the bathroom. The second room they put us in was cooler but still kind of warm. Overall I'd rate the stay a 5/10.

Very disappointing

Very outdated, dirty carpet, peeling paint, rusting doors, peeling off headboard, dirty curtains, dirty bedding with stains. The bar in the lobby wasn’t operating, rooftop restaurant wanted reservation even though it was half empty, it’s too small until rooftop is opened. The door key would get demagnetized throughout the day, and needed replacement.

The Empire Hotel has stopped improving their rooms or even keeping the existing carpets, bath vanities, doors. Soap dishes, mold, grime and dirt. We stayed in room 634, last evening (biding Fordham college) and all aspects of the hotel are dismal.

If you like cold showers, stained, worn, torn, furniture in your room, a key card that fails to work a minimum of twice a day, no coffee machine nor ice, ONLY paper cups delivered to your room, a desk that's falling apart, a bed that's hard as a rock and a pull-out sofa in a junior suite with no bedding, an iron that's broken and finally ZERO literally no place to hang nor store clothes or drawers anywhere. Well, this place will be perfect for you! Booked Mon-Fri {4 nights} for ONLY $2k! Joke... Never going back!
