Problems with Omni Berkshire

Check-in was good. Tub in room needed repair which was fixed before departure but should have been repaired before the room was used. It also had mold on the shower curtain - housekeeping should have taken care of both! They shorted us a wash clothe - I called the front desk and they never did send one! Asked for directions and they were totally wrong TWICE: we had to find the location on our own! The guys out front greeting were the best!!!!

Plan on a cab to everywhere. Times Square/ Rockefeller are not close walking distances (30-45 minute walks). Save money - go cheaper and be closer to Times Square and the sites we tourists want to see.

Was less then impressed

[...] Every morning we had to endure a 20 floor ride to then go outside to smoke. The suite was nowhere close to what was represented on their web page. The suite was sterile with no presence of comfort. The living room furniture was so uncomfortable we spent little to no time in it. Most of our time was spent in the bed room. When I decided to bathe I filled the tub but the water was rusty in color and sediment was present. We left after 2 nights because we became ill and returned home totally disappointed.

convenient for business travel, friendly staff

The hotel staff was kind and willing to go out of their way to help guests. That was very nice. The televisions are a disappointment. Surely they can afford something more modern, given the price of a room. One other irritant: Like clockwork, when you ask an outdoor bellman to hail a cab they pretend to try, then they come back and say there are not cabs available but COINCIDENTALLY they happen to have their friend right there in a black sedan who can take you for 'about the same price'. This happens every single time, regardless of traffic, etc. I am not bothered that these guys are getting referral fees from the sedan drivers, but I do find their feigned attempts to find a cab somewhat absurd. Sometimes I just want a cab, not a sedan. Do these guys really believe I am falling for this obviously rehearsed routine?

Omni Berkshire New York

I love this hotel. I think it is great value for the money. The location is fabulous. We ate at 2 great restaurants , each about 1 1/2 blocks away. It is also within walking distance of the theatres, stores, and some museums. The staff is friendly and always willing to help.
