Equinox Hotel New York

This hotel is simply the best in New York if you care about a balanced stay with health, privacy, and overall service at the forefront. The hotel is tucked away in the beautiful Hudson Yards area. You get the best of a 5 star hotel without the arrogance. The gym and spa teams are fantastic and the pool is an added benefit. Food is healthy and delicious. A cool, dark and quiet nights sleep in one of the best beds I've ever slept in is necessary for recharging on a busy and chaotic trip in the worlds busiest city. I couldn't recommend a hotel more.

A very enjoyable stay! The rooms are cozy and the hotel is located in a very good area near shops and restaurants. The staff are very friendly and the service excellent. My partner and and I will definitely stay here every time we are in the New York.

I recently worked with Jesus to plan an anniversary surprise at Equinox Hotel and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From start to finish he made the entire booking and planning process seamless and genuinely enjoyable. It's rare to work with someone who brings that level of care and attention to detail — he took what could have been a stressful planning process and made it feel effortless. Jesus is the reason I'll be coming back. If you're looking to make a special occasion truly memorable, ask for him. Five stars without hesitation.

Savannah was so helpful, she took time to help us and make our stay amazing!

Well located hotel for my business trip and in a nice part of NYC. You enter the hotel at ground level through a small somewhat dark entrance to two small lifts. You have to go to L25 to check in then up a separate lift bank of two small lifts to get to your room. Entrance and process uninspiring, not welcoming and not 5 star. Check in was efficient and friendly if a little clinical. Room was very nice - very clean, modern, large ‘double bed’ comprising 2 large singles put together with separate duvets. Very large shower area and bathroom and plenty of space. Nice smelling shampoo, body wash, etc. draws were filled with lots of Equinox gym related products you could buy at silly high prices if you are dumb enough to do so and also available were condoms, vibrators, etc should you so desire. All sorts of fruit teas also available but no normal tea, no milk, etc. No ironing board nor iron so I called for them and got them no problem. No hairdryer for some reason but there was a steamer for de- creasing my clothes. I would guess that a hairdryer in each room would be used much more often that a steamer but maybe I am wrong. Bed reasonably comfortable, pillows too thin and soft and poor/erratic air con each night caused me to wake up very hot. I would not want to experience that at the height of the New York heat. Lighting in the room very good. If you are travelling on business and want to work in the room, note there is no desk nor proper chair - not sure why not. There is a massive Equinox gym on Level 4 free for guests to use with all the equipment you could ever hope to use. Opens at 5:30 (I went each day at that time) and is packed pretty much all day with locals who are full members. Main membership seems to be very image and fitness conscious twenty somethings so not for a guest who may want a quiet workout. I had in-room dining one evening. Food was ok, but nothing special but very, very pricey. I ate out the others nights. Did not bother with breakfast in the hotel too- ridiculously expensive so I bought outside - loads of options nearby at a fraction of the price. Overall this really is a massive gym with a pool and spa, a bar for people to meet in and eat ……….with a hotel added on. Guests are just a lucrative part of the foot fall. Service is friendly and efficient but not personal. No hotel lobby to relax in, get a drink at the bar, etc and the need to take two sets of lifts to go up and down from your room becomes very irritating over a few days. Eat out. Gym great but super busy all the time. Aircon needs sorting. Would I stay here again? Only for the location if necessary.
