From the trompe l'oeil that adorns elegant Café Pierre and an exemplary staff that speaks 35 languages, to elegantly appointed bedrooms and suites embellished with fine artifacts, each detail at this member of Taj Hotels, Resorts & Palaces is a tribute to understated elegance.

Generally Hotel has a lot to offer. Certainly very nice rooms and bathrooms with excellent bathroom amenities. Breakfast was very good and staff attentive. I hesitate on whether I will return or not, my son lives in NY and I was hoping to have a good Hotel to make my regular choice, but a couple of things put me off. First, there was no charging station in the room. I brought my own cables but no adaptor as on previous occasions staying at other hotels in the area there was always one in the room. When I asked at reception they said they might be able to get me one but at $40 charge. Secondly, I had pills, that I take daily, sitting on the top shelf in the bathroom. But after my room was cleaned they were missing. I know this was just an accident and do get that but I thought the front desk would have offered some token gesture by way of an apology.

Great location, wonderful service, and beautiful hotel. Room service breakfast prices leave you with the sense that the hotel prefers not to provide room service and thus charges quite unreasonable prices or the hotel is taking advantage of a guest - neither strike a guest well. Also, in the common bathrooms near the elevators, one of the bathrooms has a damaged sconce. Leaves a guest with the sense of deferred maintenance. Context for comment regarding room service: My wife and I love to choose upscale hotels and order room service for breakfast. While the service was great, and the orange juice was perfect, the prices to order eggs, coffee, juice and some minor meat sides (bacon for one and ham for the other) were quite unreasonable. A guest is left with the sense that they’re being nickel and dime-ed - many upscale hotels include breakfast as part of the stay. I would prefer to pay a higher room rate and acknowledge the choice of an upscale stay rather than pay (perhaps) slightly less and spend $200 for an egg and coffee breakfast. It becomes a matter of being reasonable with your guests or being unreasonable and tacky.

Best hotel I've ever stayed at. The staff were so personable and they truly made you feel like you were the only clients there. I would recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to New York

I thought my room (an upgrade) was a little tired and dated but the staff, all of them, were exceptional, kind and funny. Due to the freezing weather, we ate at the hotel restaurant (Perrine) more than expected which was comfortable and the food was all very good.

We were fortunate enough to spend time at the Pierre Hotel located on 61st Street in NYC while attending a Gala over the weekend. We loved the Premier Pierre Suite featuring a King Bed and stunning views of Manhattan. The hotel and its rooms exude a lovely old-world charm that is truly beautiful. The amenities include a doorman, a restaurant, and the MarieBelle Chocolate Store and more. The elevators also possess charm, complete with elevator operators. A wonderful place to stay.
