We booked four nights at The Blakely based on reviews and we were not disappointed. Close to MOMA, Carnegie Hall, and some fabulous restaurants, e.g., Trattoria Del'Arte (our fave and recommended by hotel). The service was above and beyond and comparable to very, very expensive hotels. The room was very nice and we requested a room higher up based on... more

We booked The Blakely after spending many hours here on TripAdvisor, way back in December 2007. Our decision was based upon reviews, price and location to Central Park, as this was the finish of the New York Marathon, which I ran. The hotel is located on West 55th Street in Manhattan, in between 6th & 7th Avenues. By New York... more

Continental breakfast was good and featured... more
