Classy getaway
Upon arrival me and my wife immediately checked in and went up to our room. Our request to have a high room was granted, and we had a great view of the empire state building. The room was amazing except for the terribly inconvenient automatic mini bar. If you have kids you may owe more money then you plan on because if they touch one of the items you are automatically charged, with no refund. Turn down service was unexpected and enjoyed and the business center and fitness center made my stay easier. The finally infrastructure that made our stay more enjoyable was the rooftop bar. Absolutely amazing!!

Romantic get away for two.
I was really impressed with all the staff. The gentleman, Peter, who checked us in remembered my name the entire stay I was there. Each time I passed by he would say Hello and use my name. If he wasn't there someone was always there to say hi. There was also someone always there to open the hotel doors for you. The staff was all smiling faces. The room was very comfortable, the shower had two spouts and was incredible. It was close to public transportation, Byrant Park (which was a relaxing place to have lunch) and to Times Square to see Musicals. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Fabulous Holiday
Hotel was very clean and well maintained. We found the staff to be friendly and helpful at all times providing advice and answers when wanted. The NYC pass was excellent value and we would recommend that visitors use them.

Short break
Good location, within walking distance of most attractions. Slightly noisy on Saturday night - not sure if this was within the hotel or nearby - but didn't disturb us too much. Staff friendly and helpful.

Fabulous Find
Excellent service all-around from the staff of The Strand. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left our Wed - Sun stay, we felt welcomed and treated as guests by the front desk, concierge, and restaurant staff. The hotel was cute, convenient, and CLEAN. The rooftop is great for after dinner drinks, with a great view of the Empire State Building.
