My recent stay at Hotel Plaza Athenee was truly really good, characterized by excellent service and a cozy atmosphere. The location provided a perfect blend of tranquility and accessibility, just steps away from Central Park. One aspect that slightly fell short was the somewhat dated decor in the room, but the overall comfort and attention to detail easily compensated for that minor issue.

My stay at Hotel Plaza Athenee left me feeling disappointed, especially given the high expectations I had. While the historic ambiance is charming, the room's condition was a letdown with broken shades and an outdated AC system. I appreciated the attentive service from the staff, but it felt like the hotel's management has soured on recognizing loyal customers. 😞
