4We got a wonderful deal on a suite at the just-remodeled Affinia Shelburne: two good sized, tastefully appointed rooms with two big, handsome bathrooms. This could be split comfortably by two couples: one would sleep on the pull-out couch, which was not bad at all. Nice furnishings and amenities, with a sort of oblique view of the Empire state building out the window! Any services that we asked for arrived promptly. I have not rated the business or gym facilities as we never even looked for them. As you are just blocks from Grand Central Station, Times Square and Bryant Park, I'd say just get out and walk for fitness.
In -house dining is limited to a very good fancy burger and wine place downstairs. This is a moot point in mid-town Manhattan.
This is really a great base for a NYC visit.
