Amazing boutique hotel in midtown
Rooms were roomy (for nyc) and perfect location. 2 blocks from Bryant park and 3-4 to Times Square. 2 blocks from 5th Avenue. Rooftop bar drinks were delicious and space was welcoming and fun. Could not have asked for better service with check in/ check out. Great value for a fabulous hotel.

The Library Hotel in Manhattan is a very nice property. The best thing about our stay was the front desk staff. They were knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The room was nice but there is very little indoor lighting and the weather was very dreary on our trip so it seemed dark. The value for the location and property was very good. I would stay there again.

Very happy with our stay here. Great location and very good on site restaurant. The snack area was much appreciated too (included in the additional daily resort fee). Very walkable to Rockefeller Center and Times Square and Broadway shows, as well as very quick walk to Grand Central station to catch the subway to everywhere else we wanted to go.
