Best Western in Rye from AU$208

"Blah"

"If location is everything, this hotel is winning. Nestled just next to the 57th Street Subway, it's like having a magic portal to the rest of NYC—Broadway, Central Park, Brooklyn bagels—all within one ride. The room? A spacious little haven and spotlessly cleaned each day. It was like returning to a fresh slice of calm after the city’s chaos. Only bummer? No morning gown! I didn’t ask the front desk, so maybe it was a secret perk for the bold. Now, for the one real twist in the story—no bar. Not even a quiet lounge to sip a pre-dinner drink while waiting for your slowpoke travel mates. A missed opportunity, really. A hotel cocktail moment can be pure New York romance. Overall, it’s a great base for your city escapades—comfortable, clean, and in the heart of it all. Maybe scout out a nearby speakeasy for your nightcap."

"Great hotel. "

"After reading the reviews, I’m glad I still chose The Empire Hotel. Not only was the decor beautiful and the customer service super friendly and professional, at check-in, at the pool, and on the rooftop lounge, but I was also very satisfied with the rooms. There seem to be a lot of negative comments about the rooms, but ours were very clean, the bathroom was spotless with nice products included, the beds and pillows were super comfy, and the decor felt warm and even a little romantic. The hallways also had a cozy vibe. Some may call it outdated, but it was clean, had character, and made for some great photos. It’s true the rooms aren’t the most spacious, but we were still comfortable and felt really good about our choice. Another bonus, we didn’t realize until we got there that the rooftop was a Gossip Girl filming location. As fans, it was such a cute surprise and made for fun photo moments, plus the rooftop vibe was relaxed, the food was really good, and the decor was just gorgeous. Even more perks: Starbucks right on the corner, and the best little gelato spot tucked right between the hotel and Starbucks, such a win for late-night or post-adventure treats. We’d absolutely stay here again and again, The Empire is officially our NYC go-to. XOXO, a very happy family!"

"Clean but small, very convenient location"
