Great location!!

We had a great experience at the Strand. We only stayed one night, but found the staff was friendly and very accommodating. The bell hop and concierge helped us with several things, and made great recommendations while we were there for a night. We would stay there again for sure!

Quietest room in NYC

Went to NYC for a quick visit with friends for Memorial Day weekend. We chose The Strand for it's value and location. We found the room to be well appointed, clean, and most importantly - silent. A good night's sleep in the heart of midtown is a rarity. I highly suggest requesting a room on the air shaft side - you don't need a view, you have the rooftop bar for that. :)

Nice Location, room, and rooftop bar

The Strand was located about 10 minutes away from time square area and a train station. The hotel itself was a little fancier than the street it was on. Taxi's were hard to come by when were heading to the airport since it isn't on a major street. The rooftop is also very nice as you can see the empire state building and southeast views of the city.

Something Missing

The street outside was under construction when we arrived so to get to the entrance we had to stop in the middle of the road, lug our bags across the street and jump over tar. Hotel staff was not helping. This hotel needs some staff development in courtesy, attention, and customer service. they are pleasant when you get their attention, but it is difficult. Apart from that the place is charming, clean, and comfortable. the housekeepers will knock on your door repeatedly in the morning however. this is a great place for a stopover for business or Broadway and perfect for a couple without chidren. We were staying for one night and that was fine. It was irritating that we had to beg the lobby to call us a cab to the airport. Obviously standing at the entrance with our bags weren't enough of a clue.

check on any bar or club on the roof

Overall hotel was good, however in our case we received the room on 20th floor(the highest)... And as we found later there was a nightclub on the roof. So if it's Fri-Sat be ready not to come back to the room till 2am

Decent hotel on odd block

I selected this hotel based on location (wanted to be walking distance to Madison Square Garden) and the price offered. Unfortunately the hotel is located on an odd block in the middle of the wholesale garment district. Was not comfortable walking down 37th at night. Hotel itself is nice--great restaurant and bar, complimentary wine at happy hour, complimentary business center, but the king-size bed took up the entire room and there was next to no counter space in the bathroom. I would probably not stay here again unless there was a really good price offered.
