The Hotel Giraffe was a very good find. The setting is great and both their complimentary breakfast and wine and cheese are excellent. The piano bar has a good atmosphere. It is an excellent value for the price with very little, if any compromise.

Rooms were smaller than expected. Coffee machine in guest lounge was was continually running out of coffe/milk. Staff always very helpful and accommodating but not value for money.

Firstly I liked the style of the hotel and its location. Very handy for walking to Macy's, Empire State etc with a good subway line only two blocks away for trips downtown or uptown. The rooms were very large, clean and nicely decorated. The breakfast was ample but difficult to find a table in the morning, there just wasn't enough room for a hotel full of guests! No noise from other guests at night but plenty of noise from outside;bring earplugs! I felt that although free tea etc was offered all day in the lobby, some of us would really like to grab a hot drink whilst lounging around in our pjs - so a kettle in the room would be good. Next point, for that price I expect good pillows, not the flat things you might have at home. So guys you might want to invest a bit more there. Also what's the point of having a really nice roof terrace if it's full of non guests, mainly young noisy yuppie types and no seats available for paying guests to enjoy a pleasant evening drink? We had to make do with sitting in the lobby, trying to pluck up courage to approach the glowering, scary barman. A smile and a pleasant word with your prosecco makes for a happier guest. So great location, big spacious rooms - good. But not quite up to the level it thinks it is.

Excellent value for money and excellent service from all staff. Nice location accessible to the sights and features of New York but not so close to downtown to be noisy. Highly recommend the Giraffe and will definitely stay there again and recommend it to family and friends.

Very, very nice hotel - service, location, amenities, rooms, staff - all top notch. Really a bargain for Manhattan. We are already planning to stay here on our next trip.
