Wonderful staff, comfortable stay
Wonderful staff, comfortable stay. Highly recommend. Tasty on site restaurant. Luis at the front desk was a dream! Warm and courteous, anticipating issues and solving them. Top notch.

8/10 Very Good

Excellent for people, not so much for dogs
Staff were above and beyond friendly and helpful! We went to both restaurants and both were excellent, with terrific atmosphere. One complaint, and this is possibly a complaint about New York and not the hotel itself--there is NOWHERE for dogs to do their business, unless you count a small space by a tree facing the street (which proved scary for my two dogs). Even the nearby parks were notably dog UNfriendly. If this matters to you, investigate a bit before booking. That said, we had a wonderful stay and I would definitely stay here again if I wasn't bringing them along.

Smiles all around
We checked in with no problems, but later on a group checked in across the hallway and was very, very loud. Clearly here to party, propping open their door and blasting music. Even the chambermaid in the hallway suggested I call the desk. Then I went downstairs and spoke with the nicest, most professsional person who happily changed our room to a quiet, spacious and beautiful one. I never speak up when things like this happen. We travel often and noise is inevitable, but this was bad. Luis was smiling and pleasant, he really took care of us and saw I wasn't happy. This is hotel and its staff are the consumate professionals and they all deserve a bonus. Luis especially!!! We saw him earlier handle a persistent, tough customer with grace and ease. Then later we decided to check out the rooftop bar, which is so beautiful. A wonderful smile greeted us again from the friendly bartender who suggested we eat there for dinner, Vintage Green. The hostess, lovely, polite and sincere (and smiling) got us a nice table. Food was yummy and it was a really enjoyable evening. Anna, our server was excellent too. Rooms are well appointed, comfortable, spacious and with an awesome view of The Empire State Building. We will definitely return to NYC and stay here again!

Nice room with 2 beds, large enough for our family of 3. Well located and quiet. Fairly good service. They give a small treat each day you stay, a soft drink or small bag of chips. It’s no big deal, just that they refused to give the third one… So cheap and easy to fix for full satisfaction. Would go back!

6/10 Good

We were given sheets for pull out sofa, the sheets had black markings and foul odor, our bathroom had black marks that looked like mold around shower walls. The heat was either too hot or too cold and staying on the 2nd floor should not be an option given the noise of traffic, trucks and honking at 6am. Staff was friendly. Room was spacious.

5 Star Experience in Central New York
Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Sonesta, specifically service, front desk, door, and luggage room personnel were very kind and helpful. Location of hotel is in the center and Grand Central is within walking distance. There are not many downsides. Only downside I can recall is elevator is a bit old and maybe it can have update in future, other was close 5 star experience.

Santa con !
Room was nice , wall paper was peeling off at entry , ice in ice machine was old and stuck in a block, shower head was in disrepair meaning more water ran out the bottom than on you, only two pillow per bed and not the same ones as far as firmness, the heat was so dry we all had sore throats and one bloody nose. The 97 charge for two drinks/ snacks a day and use of exercise equipment even though I didn’t want it was just a flat out scam. Other than that is was okay.
