What guests think

Hotel 57 draws praise for its central Midtown location and generally friendly staff, while reviews consistently note dated rooms, limited on-site amenities, and recurring noise or elevator issues that can detract from comfort, especially for light sleepers.

Rooms range from small to generously sized, with comfortable beds but dated furnishings and occasional maintenance issues. Amenities are basic: many note streaming-only TVs, few in-room extras (often no fridge or microwave), a good gym, and minimal or closed dining with grab-and-go pastries and sometimes no coffee. Service is frequently warm and helpful, though some report housekeeping lapses and unexpected facility or deposit fees. Expect a well-located, no-frills stay with trade-offs in polish and amenities.

Great staff. Great location. There are 3 elevators in the building. They are small and old. One didnt work at all, for the 5 days of our stay. The others couldnt keep up with guests and staff needs. We started to take stairs down (from 10th floor) I also got stuck in an elevator- it wouldn't move and wouldn't open the doors. Staff responded quickly for which im grateful.

The rooms are worn down and the stationary and furniture looks dirty. The staff was friendly, but "forgot" to mention that they would charge 180 USD (45 USD per night) in location fees. They asked for the credit card for "security", but used it to charge the fees that were not mentioned anywhere. I do not like this kind of dishonesty. The fitness center is big, clean, and well-equipped with new-ish machines and suffiecient space for floor exercise. The location is great - close to Central Park and 5th Avenue. Good breakfast and dining options available at short distance.

The hotel rooms and facilities were clean, although much of furniture and lamps were old and need replacement. The bed was comfortable. Surprisingly, there’s not an option for live television or cable. Streaming is possible, but slow. No food or snack options available at hotel, but there is a diner-style restaurant next-door that is good for breakfast. The location is fantastic, with easy walks to 5th Ave., Rockefeller Center, Central Park, and the theater district The front desk and bellhop are eager to please.

The 3rd floor and rooms haven't been refurbished/renovated recently so look a bit dated. The staff was kind enough to change our room after a couple of nights so that was nice.

Rooms were pretty dated but a decent size for New York. Convenient location on 57th and Lexington with easy access to Subway. Ice machine on our floor was broken when we arrived and still broken when we left 6 days later. tried to charge USD40 per day when we checked out, which was explained as a sort of facilities fee? we were not advised of this at any part of booking so refused to pay, aparently this has been in place for bookings made after April, we booked before so they waived the fee. Rooms do need updating and a few little things that could make a difference- tissue box had 1 tissue in it and was never refilled during stay. no water provided in room or to buy in hotel. rooftop terrace has no chairs or furniture up there which could make a really nice area. dinning area not in use at rear of hotel again this could be made into a really nice area for guests, maybe even with a couple of vending machines with juice water snacks? Staff very friendly and wiling to help, its just the little things that would make a difference.

The hotel is very well located and very good value for money. The room was spacious, comfortable and clean, had all basic amenities (including an iron/ ironing board), and the staff were friendly and attentive. The hotel does not have dining facilities so you have to go out for breakfast, but there are a number of close and reasonable options.

We didn't stay a single night. We walked in and the lobby was pretty much non-existent. My wife was not allowed to checkin because the reservation was in my name and with no on-site parking or a relationship with a garage, I had to fend for myself which took 45 minutes, requiring me to leave my wife sitting with all our luggage in a small seedy area of the hotel where she saw cockroaches running around. When we got to the room it was small, very hot, old and smelly. We left and went to the Hilton Midtown.

The reception at sign-in was pleasant but we found room 1611 unremarkable. It had only the basics but nothing extra. WI-FI was very weak and almost unusable. I did use your concession in the morning which served teas and pastries. No coffee. Ordinarily, this would have been a good gesture,the management disrespected us with day-old, stale pastries that were hardly edible. I do believe that it was common practice because it was the same three mornings in a row. I registered this with the receptionist who politely acknowledged my complaint. If this is common practice at this hotel, it shows a disregard for the customer and I will no longer patronize this hotel. I would rather not be offered anything then be insulted with food not fit to eat. Please check this out.

The good: the room was clean and the location is good - near Central Park, 5th Avenue, Park Avenue, etc. The bad: everything in the room was worn, like it has been in constant use for the last 15+ years with minimal maintenance. Vent in the bathroom didn’t work. One of the shower doors was missing. Toilet seat was worn (??), and all the other furniture was beaten up or stained. All those things were easy enough to tolerate - I wasn’t in NYC for the hotel room. What was harder to deal with was the loud AC system that did keep the room cool, but would wake me up every time it cycled on at night. Worse was the dance club in the basement of the building next door - not something that 57 could control, but still... Heavy bass notes resonated through this 3rd floor room on three nights until 4am. Given the price of this room, I would have chosen somewhere else if I had known about these problems.

We tried to check in with another couple only to be told that they had lost both of our reservations and they told us the hotel was full. We made our reservations at the end of March and they apparently changed ownership in April. Because we had prepaid for our room they ended up honoring our reservation (after about 15 minutes) and gave us a room. The other couple had booked directly with the hotel and had not prepaid, so they refused to give them a room. The worst part is that they were utterly unconcerned and unapologetic about what had happened and made no effort to help the other couple find a new place to stay. They offered no compensation to the other couple and the manager was totally reluctant to even give them her last name. Another couple arrived after us and they suffered the same fate and were refused a room. Terrible!!

Make sure to double check the deposit and accidental fee of the Hotel. I’ve been expecting a deposit back for the longest for them to tell me that it was a per day thing after the guy that charged and checked us in told me that it was $200 flat guaranteeing a $155 deposit refund back. We were “supposed” to get $45 charged just once.

We had a five night stay booked here coming from New Zealand. Our flight to NYC was delayed and we would be arriving a day later. I phoned the hotel and messaged through the Expedia App to inform them of our later arrival to which both were acknowledged. We arrived at 1am to find our accommodation was cancelled, our late arrival wasn’t noted and there was no accommodation available, they had re-booked our room. So we were left stranded. The girl at the front desk was unhelpful and said to take it up with Expedia. I have been in touch with both to get a refund and told I won’t. Terrible service on both parties that I wouldn’t use again.

The hotel is very clean and has a great location but I’m surprised it’s 4 stars. When it’s time to go, they want you OUT. Housekeeping banging on our door asking us to leave 2 hours before check out. Kicked out of the dining area bc it’s “bag storage,” for which they charge you $5/piece. The maid staff are thorough but really inappropriate. On one day, she was yelling at me through my door asking what time I wanted service. Please do not yell at your guests through a closed door! This isn’t a hostel. Have the front desk call my room. That is the entire point of a front desk. Then what was totally unacceptable on our last day was housekeeping knocking on our door 2 hours before checkout, standing in our doorway, holding the door open while I’m in bed, asking when we’re leaving. If this were a cheaper place then I wouldn’t have expectations of hospitality but this was an expensive place with a high rating. They also nickel and dime you: They do not serve coffee. You’re not allowed in the dining area after breakfast. They charge by the bag to hold luggage.

Very basic, clean room in a perfectly located upper East side hotel. The staff were standouts: friendly, helpful, cheerful. The room was comfortable (but note that rooms that offer "double beds" mean exactly that--a little wider than a twin, but definitely not a queen). The hotel is in an older building which seems to have had a recent light renovation; the finishes in the renovation are fine but not elegant. Our room was near the elevator shaft and we could hear the elevator mechanism through the wall. On the plus side, though this hotel is 20 or so stories there were enough elevators to mean there was never a wait. There's a breakfast room off the lobby which seems permanently closed, but a variety of good coffee shops within a block or two... in general, this is a clean, friendly place for a reasonably-priced sleep; don't expect any ancillary services and you'll have the right expectations.
