Wow
The staff was exceptionally wonderful. . . I haven't lived in NYC for a few years, but this hotel epitomizes the unique standard of service that one expects to find in in the city that is missing in most of the rest of the country. Truly "service professionals": they were discreet, friendly, competent, happy, unpretentious. . . I had an spectacular room with an amazing view of mid-town, and although I wouldn't expect to be as lucky with the view on every visit, the room decor and cleanliness was superb. Breakfast was a bit of a ho-hom let-down- banal.

Perfect
Everything about the hotel was wonderful. It was in a great spot, we were able to walk everywhere, including to a broadway show, central park, restaurants, and all of the nice shopping areas. The hotel staff was delightful, both helpful in every way possible and as friendly as could be. The room was just the right size, nice bedding, nice bathroom, good lighting. it also had a roof top bar with a beautiful view. We throughly enjoyed our stay here and will recommend it to everyone. **And a bonus, we were able to check into our room 6 hours early which was incredibly nice.

Great Hotel
First class modern hotel in a good central location- Time Square:10 mins walk and nearest underground station:5 mins walk. All the staff were so friendly and helpful. Great rooftop bar. We would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel- it will certainly be top of our list when we next visit the city.

Just back and loved The Strand
We made a point of letting the staff know that this was our 5th visit to NYC and this hotel was by far the best we stayed in, all members of staff we met were so nice, all very upbeat and friendly, nothing was a problem, we asked for a coffee maker which was sent up immedietly, often asked about taxis etc and advice was always good, they accomodated a late check out without a problem, room was spotless,bed was so comfy, bathroom was spotless which is a big factor for me in a hotel room. The hotel is on a side st which works because it is quiet at night and you will sleep without hearing all the honking and fire engines constantly which has happened to us in other hotels. Great location,turn right out of hotel and Herald Square & Macy's is 2-3 blocks up. Restaurant food & drinks were very nice if a little expensive but that would be my only gripe but there are lots of diners & delis found locally if trying to stick to a budget, Breakfast buffet was great to kick start the morning, roof top bar was great, hotel also held onto baggage foc which we have had to pay a ridiculous and unnecesary charge per bag in other NY hotels. I could keep going on about how nice the staff were, i'm a fairly relaxed kind of person and don't like too much fuss but at same time when you pay NY hotel prices you expect a certain standard and that excactly what you get here, an excellent standard in a relaxed & genuine friendly manner. If and when i do go back to NY i will book here again without hesitation

The Strand Hotel
I had stayed at the Strand Hotel while I was visiting my son in NYC this weekend. I was very pleasantly surprised what a nice hotel it was. It is very modern hotel. The bed was a king size bed and very comfortable. The room was very clean, turn down service in the evening. I enjoyed the aminites in the bathroom, the shampoom,conditioner, body wash, and lotion. The only thing that was missing was a hair dryer. The breakfast in the morning was very good also. I would have loved it if it had oatmeal. The cold ceral was good but a hot bowl of oatmeal on a winter day is yummy.
