JW Marriott Essex House New York - New York

A race was taking place outside the hotel on the day we checked in causing all entrances to the hotel to be blocked off to vehicle trafic off for several blocks. We had to get out of a cab several blocks away and walk our suitcases to the hotel. The hotel had our email address and could have contacted us to tell us of the race circumstances. Room service […] attempted turn down service at 6:00 pm each night, which is prime time for guests getting ready for the evening. We asked if they would perform turndown service at 7:00 pm after we left the room, housekeeping continued to attempt turndown at 6 and not return to perform the service later in the evening. The back entrance to the hotel was locked after 12:00am without prior notice. Although the desk asked which newspaper we would like in the morning, no newspaper was delivered. The front desk simply said they ran out. The restaurant was not in operation for breakfast the last morning we were guests without prior notice. The front bar area was available for buffet only at $40 person. The hotel was performing some maintenance during breakfast causing the fire alarm to be set off while we were eating. Upon check out our clerk asked if we had a nice stay and we stated that we had a few concerns which she might want to address for future guests. The clerk just said "oh" and went on with our check out, she was obliviously did not want to know what the concerns were. Lisateave

We had a room where you could hear some kind of circulation air system located outside the room which was rather noisy. Room 529. Also, the shower head was awful-not much regulation in the sparying mechanism.The service at the desk and the support people we came in contact with were excellent. Other than the noise and the shower head, our visit was […] OK. Lisateave

Great hotel. Service could have been a little better for a 5 star hotel. I couldn't get them to clear the room service dishes for 24 hours even though I asked several times and they skipped the room turndown for some reason. Otherwise very nice.

The JW Essex House is in a perfect location just off Central Park. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The concierge failed a bit short when helping us find a restaurant that would appeal to both grown ups and young children. But overall it was a great stay and I would go back.

Our two night stay was fine but really nothing special. There are a number of equally good alternatives just a few blocks away. Our stay was rather odd. In hindsight we think the housekeeping staff had not been informed that our room was occupied on the first night. We needed to call the maintenance staff to our room three different times for items […] that would normally have been checked prior to occupancy of a room. #1 - the lights behind the bed were not working and there did not seem to be an obvious plug to correct the situation #2 the TV would not work - it took the maintenance person about 15 minutes to correct the problem including rebooting etc. #3 burned out bulb in lamp next to chair in sitting area which was unfortunately the only area for reading while family members slept. These items are each fairly trivial but when combined with the fact that the heat was set at 65 (took until midnight to warm up), we did not have towels or robes for four people, we never received turn down service it was not terribly impressive. On the other hand, our second night was delightful. By this time our room was warm and everything was working. We received the expected turn down service and filled ice bucket - all of the normal stuff. Night #1 - not very impressive Night #2 - as expected ......Average - SoSo Lisateave

Service, rooms, internet connection (FAST), location and everything is impeccable. What does drag it down is that you can get pretty much the same for half the price. It seems you pay a lot extra for having a handfull of staff just standing around saying hi to people all day. If you're OK with the premium on the price though, I'd definately recommend […] this hotel. To be fair though, they are more reasonable than most hotels facing Central Park. Lisateave

The place was very clean, wonderfully located, elegant...probably perfect for most. Just a couple of quibbles. The gym was fine for cardio, but for weight resistance, it left something to be desired. Dumbbells only go up to 55. The pulldown lat machine was too low to provide full range of motion for my 5-10+ height and the chest press machine had the […] same problem. The other problem was this...they offer complimentary coffee starting at 7 a.m., but if you have coffee with your breakfast in the dining room, it leaps to $9. The waiter was very enthusiastic about replacing my complimentary cup with the $9 cup, and I resent that. However, keeping those defects in mind, it's great. If you like to row, they have a Concept 2 rower. I would go back, I would recommend it to anyone. Lisateave

This is a New York classic. It retains all the classic features and has been renovated and maintained befitting early art deco. You can feel old New York and old money throughout.

Essex house changed from a Jumeirah to a Marriott since our last stay, but the hotel quality is still consistently very good.i would recommend checking the prices on the web, as the price does vary quite considerably.

The hotel was of the highest standard, the room were excellent and was in the best location for seeing everything. The hotel restaurant was very good, the service was wonderful.

I have visited New York on several occasions and this was the best trip of them all. The hotel staff were friendly, courteous and very welcoming. The hotel itself was immaculate. On one occasion we had to report the blind was broken in our room, we went to dinner and on our return found the hotel had installed a completely new blind! fabulous service! […] The concierge desk were very helpful assisting where possible for booking dinner and tickets for attractions. This is exactly what a City break should be; seeing the sights during the day, relaxing before dinner in a top class hotel and having dinner and drinks with the best service. 10 out of 10. Lisateave

The hotel is currently changing management companies from Jumeirah to Marriott. Product availability, standards, service quality, and staff morale are lacking and the excuse of change is force fed too constantly as a means to justify mediocrity rather owning the transition and avoiding the calamities on the customers

I loved the location of the hotel. Being across from the park gave me relief from tall buildings and concrete. For that reason I will stay at your hotel or some other hotel across from the park the next time I come. The features of your room were mostly impressive.

looks like since Marriott took over things are going downhill at your hotel. Little things like no more complimentory slippers, the toilet in our room was cracked and patched with glue, the room vault was very difficlut to open. When we visited our relatives room on the 9th floor I found a womans eering on her floor that was not my sister in laws and […] there was a huge stain in the middle of the cloth chair that was in their room.

Services lacking. Wifi didn't worki. Telephone system not working. Explanation of services not up to date. properly. One concierge rather snobby. Other staff very helpful.

Room was cleaned. One day they made our bed up twice. When we arrived it was late not greeted from taxicab and no offered to take bags up to room. The room was comfortable but they had sensors where if you got up to go the bathroom a light what light up towards the floor but the room is dark the light seems bright. Same in the bathroom had to make sure […] bathroom door close or light could be seen from bedroom. I know it's new York but still the smallest room for the price. The hotel is in transition we made reservation's in April at that time property owned by Jeremiah group by the time we arrived in November it was owned by the Marriott. The only reason I don't give it a 5 staff was efficient but no one ever greeted us when we would enter the lobby. Lisateave

The hotel is one of the grand dame hotels of NY, but after renovation by the previous managing company it has lost it's charm.

In a great position and a comfortable hotel, pleasant stay until we checked out and they tried to charge USD $130 for two NY state phone calls of 5 miutes each after negotiating for 3 minutes this was reduced to $13 so I dont know why they try to put this on as it only leaves a bitter taste in your mouth.
