Nice lobby! - user review I feel lucky to have found a great rate on this hotel! Our room was as large, and with an outside view. Our friends' room was a bit smaller w/out the great view.

Nice place to stay - user review I gotta say when I first walked into our room I noticed how small it was, but I suppose space is a issue in New York. The room was clean, and the service was nice and helpful. The location was great, not too far of a walk from Times Square, just enough to have a brisk walk after dinner. I heart New ... newyork.citysearch.com

Lively Bar - user review The Roosevelt Hotel deserves great credit for their fun, international bar dedicated to it's hotel guests. The bartenders really make the bar! The hotel rooms are a bit boring, with all the basics, but little more. The service in the hotel makes up for the average rooms. The gourmet takeout coffee s... newyork.citysearch.com
We loved it! - user review The Roosevelt really does transport you back in time. Beautiful lobby and lively bar helped to make it feel so "classy".

Railroad Hotel tries to be upscale, but don´t be fooled - user review The Roosevelt has a fine history: one of those railroad hotels a block from Grand Central.

The Roosevelt Hotel: Try it for location, return for value! - user review We needed a hotel for a Saturday night in NYC in August.

Splendid Hotel - user review For a very large hotel (1000 rooms), the staff is very friendly and the hotel is well maintained. The room was clean, the bed comfortable, everything worked.

Perfect Place - user review Great Hotel. The only negative thing I could even think of, and this is very minor, is that since it is such a large hotel, and there are only so many elevators, it sometimes took almost 10 minutes to get to the lobby ( usually at check out time ). This only happened twice. Also, you have to pay for... expedia.com
Smallest room ever - user review I can't believe how much they charge for so little. This was the smallest hotel room I've ever been in. My child's room at home is larger. It was clean, and if you have to stay somewhere this place was fine, but way way overpriced just li... expedia.com

NY Minute - user review The lobby is outstanding and beautiful. The room was fine, but needs remodeling.

I cannot tell if it was the room or New York... expedia.com
