    This was my first time staying at an Arlo property, and I absolutely loved the experience from start to finish. From the moment I booked, the hotel was communicative and welcoming before I even arrived. I chose the Midtown location because of its proximity to the Theater District and its strong reviews, and it did not disappoint. The property itself is a chic, modern boutique hotel with a great overall vibe. I appreciated that key card access is required to reach guest floors which adds an extra layer of security. I stayed in a King room without a view. The room was clean, smelled fresh, and while a bit on the smaller side (as expected with boutique hotels), it was perfectly suited for my stay. There's also a coffee shop, restaurant, and bar on site, which makes it convenient if you want to grab something without leaving the property. I liked that they send text updates about what's happening at the hotel and check in to see if you need anything. When I did reach out with questions, they were very responsive. My niece mentioned that we were in New York celebrating my birthday, and the hotel added a few thoughtful touches that I genuinely appreciated. Their customer service is clearly a priority, and it shows throughout the entire experience. Checkout was quick and easy and can be completed right from your mobile phone. There is currently some construction or maintenance happening, but it didn't take away from the overall stay. Overall, I would absolutely stay at this Arlo property again due to the great location, attentive service, and a comfortable boutique experience.

    I stayed at the Arlo Midtown for my birthday weekend and overall had a very good experience. Rates were reasonable/affordable. The hotel is modern, clean, and has a fresh scent throughout the property. My room had great views, which was definitely a highlight of the stay. The only downside was the responsiveness of the text message assistance -- replies were noticeably slow, especially when I needed quick support. Aside from that, the stay was comfortable and well-maintained. I would consider returning for the location and the views alone.

    We spent a night at Arlo Midtown last weekend, and it was an okay stay. I've looked at staying at Arlo Midtown quite a few times but it was always priced higher than other hotels rated similarly by a big enough margin that I didn't think it would be worth it. Having stayed there now, I think my instincts were right. The room was fine - one of those rooms that is so small you can only get in the bed from one side, so I was climbing over my husband and had to charge my phone on his side of the bed. The bathroom had nice finishes but was designed in a way where water sprays out all over the floor. We could hear some noise from downstairs because our third floor room was open to a courtyard that opened down to the lobby. The room didn't have a coffee machine so for a cup of coffee in the morning, you have to go down and buy a cup from the cafe off the lobby. The service at the front desk was meh or good, depending on who we talked to. The location was pretty good - close to the Moynihan station so we could walk to and from the station and near several subway stations. But I didn't think the hotel was nicer or more convenient that many hotels that have a lower price point. There are other hotels I'd stay at before staying again at the Arlo Midtown just given the higher price, but it's not a bad place to stay.

    I had the time of my life at this hotel! I don't typically stay in Midtown for obvious reasons, especially as a former New Yorker (lololol) but this is actually such a great location, sort of tucked away, but still close to everything. And, I had a wonderful experience. My experience literally began the moment I walked through the door. I was greeted very cheerfully by the Arlo team. Specifically, Ken(neth). Ken was such good energy and got me taken care of immediately. Unfortunately, I booked a room through Priceline (I would not recommend doing that - book directly - it was actually cheaper) so there was a mixup with my room when I checked in. However, Ken and the manager (a very sweet Black woman with braids whose name I didn't catch - sorry sis) did their best to accommodate me and work with me. They honestly provided such a great experience and problem solved right there on the spot, which a lot of hotels, even big chains, won't do these days. The check-in process was smooth and easy, and Ken did a fantastic job of explaining all of the hotel amenities to me. In fact, Ken served as a beacon of resourcefulness the entire time I was there, because I found myself asking for good food, options super nearby, as well as other random things (again, not a Midtown girl), and he accommodated every request with a smile. Again, I couldn't have asked for a better guide or check-in experience. My suite: my suite was perfect. It was so incredibly clean, even the very deep bathtub. It smelled great, too, and the fortune cookies were such a cute touch. The room was also surprisingly quiet. Despite the fact that there were many people coming in and out of the elevator in hallway throughout the night, I rarely heard anyone. It was perfect. And that bed? So incredibly comfortable. I also had the opportunity to go to the bar downstairs. That was a wonderful experience as well. I don't remember my bartenders names, but I know that they did their very best to make sure I was satisfied with all of my many drinks that I had over my two days. Rooftop: even though it was very windy and cold, I had to take a look at the rooftop, and I was so glad I did. You have such a beautiful view from up there and there's a gorgeous mural painted. Perfect place for photos. And honestly, a great place to relax and catch your breath after a wild day in the city. I'm normally a Hyatt girl. However, I can honestly tell you that the next time I come to the city, I will look at Arlo differently and will definitely try to stay there. I really enjoyed my experience. I cannot think Ken enough for making it so incredibly wonderful and being so kind, especially on my birthday.

    Bedroom was small but typical NYC.

    Clean great location near Jacob Javitz convention center and the Hudson yards. Housekeeping was timely, I needed more towels and they appeared quickly. Check out was way. Extremely trendy and euro. A change from the chain hotels The bar, restaurant and coffee bistro were a great touch . They had a welcoming board to right a note. My friend from childhood came to visit and we wrote a note . I'll stay here and highly recommend it.

    I stayed at the Arlo during a work event for about 3 days and it was good. In all interactions with the staff, their service was amazing. Upon arrival, there seemed to be confusion about who was paying for my room, so I needed my team to call them to confirm it was paid for, but during this time, the hostess gave me my room key and allowed me to get settled in:) When going to their restaurant(Altair) their vegetarian dish wasn't my favorite and kinda pricey, but their red-headed hostess was to die for. I loved her lol she was so funny and professional. During my last night, I decided to get a late-night burger with a colleague and the hotel receptionist was super helpful and held all of our bags and coats so we didn't have to drop them off in the room and she chatted with us about a few food spots to try so she was also great. My room was a bit small, but what can you expect in New York lol. The room was cleaned everyday and I had fortune cookies left in the room with such cute notes inside of them! When I opened it, it shattered all over the floor and made a mess(totally my fault), but it was cleaned up by the next morning. My only issue was that you could see straight into my room from their ART Midtown rooftop patio which was awkward lol. Other than that, it was an overall good experience.

    Absolutely fantastic. The staff with every single member are the stars of the experience. All of them are friendly, professional, and caring. The hotel is fun, well kept, and overall extremely comfortable. Great location. Awesome valet parking service. (Yes, high price $75 a day, but that is New york, and the convenience can not be beat, worth it!) Great rooftop bar. Great street level restaurant bar. Excellent breakfast restaurant. A new favorite hotel of mine.

    I really enjoyed my stay at the Arlo midtown hotel. It was centrally located and I was able to easily walk to Broadway, Times Square Chelsea, and the Peloton Studio (my reason for being in town). The hotel room was clean, comfortable, and safe. There was always someone at the front desk and guests have to tap their key card to use the elevator.

Friends thought we were a lil crazy for bringing two kids to Manhattan, but it ended up being such a special trip for us, and the Park Hyatt was a huge part of that. The hotel is beautiful, from the gorgeous floral arrangements throughout the property to the calm, elegant atmosphere. Our room was incredibly spacious, which felt like a true luxury in New York, especially with a stroller, luggage, SNOO and everything that comes with traveling with a newborn. Having that extra space made the entire trip feel easier. One of our favorite parts of the stay was the indoor pool. We took the boys swimming almost every night, and it became our little ritual. They loved it, and those evening swims are still some of my favorite memories from that trip. The location was perfect for a family stay. We walked to Central Park, FAO Schwarz, Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Center, Columbus Circle, and so many nearby restaurants, coffee shops, and stores. Being able to explore for a few hours, come back to the hotel to rest, and then head back out again made New York feel surprisingly easy. Now, two years later, our boys are older and we're planning another New York trip. I've been looking at hotels, but I keep coming back to the Park Hyatt because of how special that first stay was for our family. It would be pretty amazing to bring the boys back, let them swim in that pool again, and experience the hotel at a different stage of their childhood. The Park Hyatt will always have a special place in our family's New York memories.

For this Marriott the location is excellent if you are going to watch a show on Broadway. Very convenient for the play and also get a subway to anywhere else you have to go. The rooms are generally very nice and this hotel also has everything connected and controlled through a tablet which is very appealing to me. They also have a nice bar right in the hotel that is open till late. The only downside is the size. Now hotels in major cities like this like New York or Tokyo are small and pricey. Two things that can sort of negatively affect your opinion but considering they are all like that in the area, you have to compare accordingly. The only real downside for me is that the toilet is literally next to to the shower to the point that you could shower while using the toilet (I took a picture of my hand holding the shower handle on top of the toilet seat as a joke) and the sink is outside to wash your hands after using the restroom. I feel that they could have done a better design for this to avoid it. It didn't appeal to me and it's the only thing keeping me from giving this hotel 5 stars. I will probably stay here again when I go to watch another play.

It didn't help that everyone had to take an elevator just to reach the lobby, then another to get to their room. Fortunately, I was only on the ninth floor...so I got my steps in. The room itself was mostly ok. One thing I really didn't like was the air conditioning. It wouldn't cool below 68 degrees. I despise hotels that throttle the A/C. I'd get warm, the air would finally kick on, I'd be comfortable for about ten minutes...then the cycle would repeat all night. Another thing that caught me off guard was the ceiling.
