Dream New York

This is a sleek, cool deco-themed hotel close to anything you'd want to do in Midtown Manhattan. Just entering the lobby is an experience--dark wood, tiled ceilings, floor to ceiling aquarium, a quiet seating area toward the back, a street level restaurant and easy access to to a hip club. The signature color is a cool cobalt blue. The ads did not mention how sexy it is. Getting off the elevator on 4, I was met with a lovely photo mural of torsos and breasts, in the signature blue. I thought it was great, but perhaps startling to some. The room was small but well laid out--comfortable bed, cool white bedding, dark wood, writing desk, and blue indirect lighting at floor level. No need to set the mood, it's already there. A couple of quibbles: half the storage console was taken up with the minibar, half the other side with the safe (only 2 drawers). The closet was half-filled with 2 wonderful bathrobes. There was no wifi, only an ethernet type connection (I had only an iPod with me so was iMute). The bathroom had nice shelves and personal amenities, but the tub/shower was older but not cool old (e.g., clawfoot). The location is fantastic--cabs out front, subway and delis right at the corner. The major museums, TV studios, shopping, Broadway, Central Park, Tiffany's -- it's all an easy walk or cab ride away. I was so taken with grazing at my favorite deli that I didn't use the on-site restaurants. The menus were varied with a range of cuisines, reasonably priced for the area, and full room service available. To sum up, this is a great spot for a romantic weekend or quick business trip. I had theater tickets and museum passes for a couple of days before flying to Europe. For a longer stay, the small amount of storage could be a problem. I suggest calling to see if larger rooms have larger closets or more drawer space. A cool blue Dream overall.

The hotel is in a great location, only 8 blocks from Times Square and 2 blocks from Central Park. The rooms are small but very clean. The Ava bar at the PH was nice and very busy. Many affordable places to eat close to the hotel and the R metro is right at the door that will take you to Battery Park where you can take a boat ride to the Statute of Liberty.

I had a great deal here for a room on Valentines Day. The decor of the hotel and the rooms is modern and trendy looking. The room was on the small side, but it had a very comfy bed, big tv, bathrobes, plenty of toiletries and some cool blue lighting. The best part- staff. I had to leave very early the next day to catch a flight. They checked me out quickly and even hailed a cab for me!

while I enjoyed being close to everything, the hotel just missed the mark in that 'comfort' feeling. hotel was attractive, staff was friendly, but there was just something missing in the feeling of appreciating my business and definitely not the most 'comfortable' as far as bed/bedding and seating in the room. Room was also small ...reminded me of a cruise ship.......best attraction for this hotel, LOCATION

everything was great except elevators..too slow and the call buttons wouldn't stay lei

GREAT location and great staff! Serafina restaurant is really good. The rooms are tooo small and not very pretty. For a better price I would stay there again but for what I paid no.

I wanted to get away for the weekend. I live in Manhattan but I wanted the tourist experience for my guest. They had a great time and the price was decent for the weekend. Quiet, clean, and a decent size especially for NYC. I would stay here again

the staff was very helpful, the location was perfect for the things we wanted to do in New York

Was only there for a weekend but the staff was very kind, rooms had cool lighting, clean and awesome bathroom. Pet friendly and the decor was delightful.

Simple but effective, great staff, well equipped room. Good for mid town, central park etc.
