HOTEL BEACON - New York

Hotel intéressant mais assez loin de Time square, 20 bonnes minutes à pied : station de métro à 200 mètres, mais pas trop accueillante la nuit si désire de sortie. Personnel pas trop souriant et ni trop à l'écoute , sensation de lassitude du personnel. Hotel face à une superette et à côté d'un Starbuck Café. Chambre propre et confortable , pas trop […] bruillante. Hotel ,plutôt bon rapport qualité prix mais possibilité de trouver un peu plus près de time square au même tarif... Lisez la suite

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour de 4 nuits dans cet hôtel avec deux ados. Il est très bien situé, à côté de Central Park et d'une station de métro. La chambre était très bien décorée et jouissait d"une kitchenette avec micro-ondes, grille pains et plaque, très pratique pour le petit déjeuner. Une très bonne superette se trouve en face de l'hôtel […] pour les provisions. J'y retournerai sans problème. Lisez la suite

When I come to New York to attend the opera at the Met, I usually stay at the Beacon. I'm always happy with the accommodations and feel very comfortable there. It's so convenient to the subway and restaurants we like. I always feel at home.

Room was clean and comfortable. Free Internet a plus. Bathroom a bit on the small side. Price was right. Would stay there again

Nice, clean room in a great neighborhood. Walking distance to shopping, restaurants, public transportation, and Central Park. Concierge service and doorman. Small but complete kitchen area. Would highly recommend.

The hotel was a good choice (although a bit too expensive) for its great location, good service, nice rooms which even had a small kitchenette, which was very practical. On the opposite side there's a good grocery, subway station is very close and the hotel neighbourhood cosy and has lots of cafes and restaurants. The staff was very nice and if asked […] to help, did so promptly and with a smile. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Lisez la suite

Everything was great! What else can I say?! A++

We decided to stay here because my friend, in her late 70's, had just had hip surgery and needed a room with wheelchair access and a kitchen. The hotel recommended we take a suite on the fourth floor with a walk in shower. I was concerned it would be loud because we were right above the street and there was a concert at the Beacon Theater. The hotel […] assured me the windows were sound proof. They were right on all accounts. Weak from traveling my friend wasn't able to leave the hotel for two days. Instead, all of her friends came to visit her. We were able to cook healthy meals and the room was quiet and restorative. On the third day we wheeled her into beautiful central park. The hotel staff graciously let us extend our stay and found a way to keep us in the same room. Our stay was exceptional because the hotel helped us find the right room for our needs! Lisez la suite

My husband and I (from Jersey) decided to brave it and take our 3 young kids (all under 6) to the city for the night. The reviews of Hotel Beacon were amazing, so we tried it...and we were so happy we did! Friendly staff, rooms were spotless and perfect size for our family. The small kitchen was a great addition especially for families who have to worry […] about bottles/milk etc. Wonderful location -- the amazing Levain Bakery is a very short walk - it was featured on the FoodNetwork! Very convenient to Central Park and the Museum of Natural History - even our 6 year old managed the walk :) This was an amazing experience1 Lisez la suite

This is our first time at the Beacon Hotel. The staff was very helpful, the room was clean and very quiet and our experience was GREAT!

The hotel is within easy walking distance to Central Park, restaurants and taverns, with helpful, friendly staff, and clean accommodations .

My husband and I had a recent 4 night stay. We loved the room, the bed was the most comfortable bed I've slept in. Having a living room with kitchenette was so convenient and really added to the experience. We loved the location, it was quiet but had many restaurants and shops nearby including the Fairway Grocery. It was within easy walking distance […] of Central Park, The Lincoln Centre and The subway. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. My brother-in-law, who stayed in a nearby room, was also impressed. He had previously enjoyed staying at The Trump but said he would definetely only consider The Beacon on his next trip to NYC. As would we ! Lisez la suite

I often stay at the Beacxon and like its great position on the Upper West Side, about 7 mins walk from Central Park. Opposite is Fairways, an unblievably well-stocked food shop and there are two subway stations within 5' walk. The Beacon doesn't attract many typical businessmen probably becasue it does not have a bar or restaurant. Most guests are on […] holiday or a visit whicjh lends the place a rather happy atrmosphere. There is a diner next door which is fine for breakfast or typical NY food, and many good restaurants nearby. The hotel has good free wireless LAN. The rooms are comfortable with tea and coffeee making equipment as well as a kitchen with stove and microwave (but no oven) and a fridge. You can ask for any pots or pans beyond the basic equipment in the cupboards. Iron and ironing board. Sufficient hanging space for a longer stay as well as drawers. No hook by the door for a wet coat. DVD player and good TV. There is a laundry (coin-operated) on the 7th floor. Some rooms don't have a desk but all have a large table. As of March 2012 no bedbugs in my room which apparently is not so self-evident in NY! Staff helpful with tips about where to eat and so on. Check-out until 1pm with no hassle. Lisez la suite

we have stayed here a few times, we love the neighborhood and convenience of having kitchenette in every room. The fairway market across the st, wine /spirits 2 doors down. many great restaurants nearby. we dont even bother checking other hotels anymore, we prefer to stay at the Beacon!

This is the second time I have stayed at the Beacon and been extremely pleased. On the location: safe, accessible from West Side Hwy, close to Lincoln Center, subway and good food -- with a supermarket across the street. A wonderful walk brings you to Central Park or Broadway district, and taxis are readily available. Rooms (once in a suite and once […] using 2 separate rooms) are more than fine, with the convenience of a kitchenette. All this for a good price. I highly recommend. Lisez la suite

My boyfriend and I stayed there for new years eve. I was so happy that not like all the other hotels who raised there prices just because of the date this hotel gave a reasonable price for the location and date of the year. The hotel was beautiful and the hotel staff had excellent coustomer service. I requested a floor on a high floor and recieved my […] request. I had an amazing view of the city. The only thing I didn't like was the parking but I'm from out of town and not the city so it is something to get use to but I found a place with a reasonable all day price for parking. I only stayed once but I have to stay I really enjoyed my stay. Lisez la suite

Had a great experience at the Hotel Beacon. Service was excellent. Provided us with early check in on the day with no problems. room was great. We mainly walked into tourist centre, about half an hour walk. But there is a metro a couple of minutes walk that takes you right into times square. Fantastic market across the street with bakery's close by […] as well. Lovely area and felt very safe. Concert on the beacon theatre one of the nights, couldn't hear a thing! Highly recommend!

If you're an uptown girl or guy, Hotel Beacon will suit you well. The neighborhood is active but not chaotic. Central Park is close. So is Barney's Coop, the Museum of Natural History, the Met. And the subway. The rooms are quiet, which is huge in Manhattan. We had a queen suite with a kitchenette, which was comfortable and convenient. The bedding was […] lux but the room was a bit frayed at the edges and the bath smelled faintly of insect spray. Do ask for a room on the side street, on the 7th floor or above. Lisez la suite

So glad that we found this hotel... it's perfect in location, in set up with kitchenette. Love that it's close to the metro station and has Fairway across the street. Quiet, though you do hear a bit of the band that's playing at the theater... but not too loud. Accommodations are perfect for when you need more space and the pull out couch bed was very […] comfortable. No complaints. Lisez la suite

We stayed in Beacon Hotel for 10 days from december 5th to december 15th. The room was big and clean, with an useful kitchenett fully equipped. A payment laundry is available at the 7th floor. The hotel is located in west 70s, very near to the 72nd street subway stop (line 1/2/3), on broadway, near to Amsterdam Avenue: a really nice location. Totally […] suggested! Lisez la suite

Hotel Beacon is certainly not new or modern. But if you need a reasonably priced, clean, comfortable room you will not be disappointed!! We arrived WAY before regular check in, they offered us the option of waiting for our (booked) king bed room, or if we were willing to opt for a queen we could check in immediately. We went with the queen. They put […] us on the 24 th floor facing Central park, view was fabulous!! Staff extrorinarily friendly, which is saying a lot coming from a midwesterner. The bed was so comfy, as good or better than those hotels that advertise them!! Rooms are not oversized but quite adequate. Wifi is not free but starbucks is a few steps outside the front door and theirs is free! The cafe next door has the most amazing food at reasonable prices. Their staff could use some courtesy lessons from the hotel staff. But like i said it is Manhatten! Would absolutely book here again!! Lisez la suite

A great place to stay within walking distance to Lincoln Center, and to museums on the West Side. Staff was friendly and helpful, and the room was comfortable, and clean.

We hadn't stayed here since they did considerable renovation. It has been improved quite a lot. Brand new bathrooms, new beds, still with kitchenettes. We like this location very much--close to Central Park, Lincoln Center, museums. Staff very friendly.

We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel. It's reasonable, clean, and friendly. Although it does not have its own restaurant, there is a very good, convenient restaurant just next door. It's within walking distance of Central Park, Lincoln Center, the Natural History Museum and many other sites. Many small restaurants dot the area, as well as any […] other store you can imagine. We will definitely go back again. Lisez la suite

This was our 5th trip to NYC in the past 15 years. Have previously stayed at Waldorf-Astoria, Marriott Marquis, Marriott East Side, JW Marriott (near Central Park). While the Beacon is not as upscale as any of these, it also is not as expensive and is fully adequate. We like the location better than any of the above in that you are in less intense tourist […] traffic, shopping is convenient, there are many, many small restaurants within easy walking, The streets seem safe and transportation is very convenient. If going to either the Metropolitan Opera or the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the location is excellent. 20 minute walk to the opera. Easy walk to a cross-town bus on 79th street for the museum. Excellent grocery store just across the street. We will stay there again. Lisez la suite

huge two-room suite for the price of an average New York closet sized room.

Beacon was recommended by a cousin and it proved to be the perfect place for us to end and start our great trip to NYC. The neighborhood is so very nice, clean and has two wonderful grocery stores right across the street. Our room was so comfy, clean and quiet - and the bath shower was a wonder to of power for tired muscles. We also had a great open […] view across the street to see the moon at night and the sunrise on the buildings across the way. The staff was very cordial and happy to help with any ideas or questions. Red line subway station is only 1/2 a block away and the Beacon Theater is right next door. Hotel Beacon made our stay in NYC perfect. Lisez la suite

Very comfortable hotel with convenient location. Would stay there again.

The most important was that your management stands behind their words, and they do things as they promised. Thank you.

My daughter and I stayed here for 8 nights recently and really enjoyed this hotel. The staff are very friendly, the location was great - really close to the subway (we each purchased a weekly pass), a Starbuck's on the corner and the great supermarket Fairway right across the street - what more could you want? Our room was lovely, we had the 2 room […] suite and it was great to spread out in, and the kitchen was really useful. We bought things for breakfast and the occasional supper after returning from shows at night at Fairway - so convenient. We used the subway to and from Broadway shows and certainly felt safe walking around the area by the hotel at night, also after the "crush" of Times square it was lovely to return to the much calmer area of the hotel.

Great little hotel in fantastic location and neighbourhood

The Beacon Hotel was an excellent place to stay for a weekend getaway in New York. It was well appointed, reasonably priced, clean and very convenient. Located on the Upper West Side at 75th & Bway, it has nearby restaurants, food stores and Broadway ambiance, just a few blocks from the 72nd st. subway stop. The staff were courteous and helpful. This […] is our 4th fall weekend at this hotel, and I fully anticipate returning for many more. -- RLK Lisez la suite

We had a big room (for NYC) with kitchen. There is a gourmet take-out shop across the street. Lincoln Center is a 15 min. walk.

Roomy by NYC standards. Frig and kitchen allowed us to eat breakfast in the room and save some. The room was not luxurious, but nice and clean. There were a few items that needed repair, but they were minor. Towels and amenities were good. Location was good if you want to be close to the park and AMNH. I missed the activity of Midtown, Chelsea, SOHO. […] I probably won't stay here again, but not because of the hotel. Service was very friendly. Lisez la suite

Checking in was a breeze....Service was pleasent. However, when we reached our room #1711 we walked in to find that we where given a corner room with the air conditioning unit as our view. We called downstairs in a rush to request a more comfortable room. We where told we would be called back and that never happened. IT was a bummer seeing that we are […] from DC, a place where the 17th floor does not exist. Maybe the next time :-/ Lisez la suite

Great hotel - well appointed rooms im a good location. Really enjoyed our stay. One gripe - charging for wi-fi. These days should be included in the cost of the room.

If you're looking for something that’s away from the tourist areas and feels more like living in a true New York neighborhood, this is the hotel. The rooms are big compared to most NY hotels and actually have kitchenette. The hotel is quiet and clean - the staff friendly. There is a big market right across the street. The neighborhood was wonderful […] and central park is just blocks away. The 72nd street subway is just right down the street giving you access to everything. I would recommend this hotel to any who want to visit NY but don’t want to be in the midst of the crowds or tourist areas. Lisez la suite

The Hotel Beacon was simply fantastic. I am so pleased to have found this hotel, it will become my second New York home. It is so close to all the great amenities and sights to see.
