The Carlyle was an excellent place to stay in New York; it is very convenient to the Metropolitan Museum, the Park, and to many beautiful shops and restaurants. More importantly it was comfortable, obviously well-maintained and staffed! I will definitely plan to stay there again!
The hotel could use an update. Inside is dated, old rooms. Service was nice but not overly great which I would expect from a hotel of this level. The beds are comfortable, and the black out shades are amazing.
