Morgans Hotel

This centrally located hotel provides a great place to stay at a reasonable price. If you want to be in the middle of it all and have a comfortable bed and attentive staff then this is the place for you. While my experience was great and the staff was top notch, there was just one area i wish they would have focused a little more on… the free breakfast.
Pros:
The location was great, the bar had a great ambiance, the staff was attentive and very helpful. The bed was comfortable, the shower was a rain shower, the shampoo/​conditioner/​soap were all pretty unique ingredients (peppermint shampoo, cilantro conditioner and rum soap). So overall it was a great hotel that focused on the important areas.
Cons:
For any hotel to earn 5 stars they have to focus on not just the stay but also the breakfast. The free breakfast didn’t include any eggs, meat, pancake or any actual «main course» breakfast item. Instead it was just fruit, cereal, coffee, juice and muffins/​breads. While the items available were good they weren’t filling and i felt like they could simply provide eggs and bacon to make it feel more like an actual breakfast. I want to note that the food all tasted great, i just wish they provided some kind of protein for the breakfast.
Overall, i’d recommend staying here and i’d stay here again. The place is walking distance to the empire state building and very centrally located in Manhattan. The bed is comfortable, the décor is pretty cool and the staff really provide top notch customer service. They were attentive, helpful and made my time there very enjoyable. So stay here :)

Excellent séjour au Morgans. L’entrée est un peu déroutante puisqu’il n’y a aucune enseigne. On né pense pas de prime abord entrer dans un hôtel ce qui donne une atmosphère cosy et assez agréable.
Nous avons eu la chance d’être surclassées dans une chambre un peu plus spacieuse que celle que nous avions réservée. Un geste commercial bien appréciable.
Le petit-​déjeuner est inclus dans le prix des chambres. Il n’y a par contre pas de cuisine au Morgans donc ce n’est pas un large petit-​déjeuner (oeufs, fromages, saucisses etc…) comme on peut l’entendre aux USA. Cependant, c’était largement suffisant et le service est à volonté.
Le staff est vraiment prévenant, tout était donc parfait et pour né rien gâcher, l’hôtel se trouve à 5′ à pied de Grand Central donc très facile d’accès.

Nice hotel, great mid-​town location. Comfy bed, nicely designed modern rooms with a day bed and a nice bathroom. Continental breakfast was good quality and in a nice seating area. Would stay here again! My one gripe is there is no signage indicating what it is so it’s tough to find if you’ve never been here.

I first stayed at this hotel in 1988. Back then it was a very upscale boutique hotel which was not common in New York City. The experience was a bit different 27 years later. Apparently the hotel was having a water issue and they had warned us that the water could have some discoloration. We did not experience that. However when flushing our toilet we had brown flecks that almost looked like rust (Some people might confuse it with something else!) We reported it and it did not happen again. The reason I’m giving Morgans 3 ½ stars is mostly because of the condition of the hotel. Our room needed a thorough cleaning from top to bottom. Shade was broken. Carpet was filthy. Towels were poor quality. (Robes were nice!) Workout room was teeny tiny. The breakfast was sub par at best. Free coffee service all day was awesome, as were the staff! All very friendly and helpful, especially Tom!

Did not have enough time to write a review yet on a recent stay so I am doing it now. This was by far one of the best experiences I have had at a Hotel. The front desk staff was great and the room was spacious enough for my wife and I. We first arrived and were roomed between two families and they quickly moved us to a very quiet section of the hotel. It made the stay 1000 times more enjoyable. Overall the bathroom was clean and the bed was very comfortable along with the black out shades that worked really well. I want to take a moment to recognize one employee in particular. Her name is Emily Ward and she is in the rest/​bar. She was an amazing resource when she found out we were on our anniversary. She took time to get a book out from behind the bar which contained all her hidden gems in Manhattan. She was by far the most helpful person I have come across in a hotel. She is a real find in such a great hotel. I would definitely go back to Morgans Hotel because everything was great. By the way we stayed there from Oct 22 to Oct 27. The hotel is also located near Grand Central Station and a subway stop. Thank you Emily and everyone at Morgans. You made our 13^th Anniversary special.

This is the second year in a row that we’ve stayed at Morgans Hotel and I just love it! Since we had our baby in tow, we booked a one bedroom suite which was spacious. Perfect for our little family of three, especially as the baby is used to sleeping in her own room. There is a door that separates the living area to the short hallway of the bathroom as well as a bedroom door, so that provided pretty good sound insulation (i.e. when the baby is crying).
We enjoy the free Continental Breakfast which includes bagels, croissants, pain au chocolats, toast, cereal, fruits, yogurt, etc. Plus the complimentary WiFi is nice too, although it can get hard to log on with the iPhone but perfectly fine on the iPad or laptop.
Overall, this is a great hotel on a quiet street of Murray Hill. Less than ten minutes from K-​Town and a few steps away from the shopping of Fifth Avenue. I’ve stayed at quite a few hotels in the city and this is by far my favorite one.

Wow. I am kinda relieved to have found this place. The gf and I always come down to nyc for a night or two and have tried numerous hotels looking for one we could just use every time. I think this is it.
Location is great. Just a couple blocks from grand central. The hotel itself is sleek and modern and just smooth all around. They give you a nice little breakfast before you head out for the day. The rooms were similar with great décor and free wifi.
The best part though… The service. Everyone is so nice it’s like they actually want you there. We have stayed at probably around 10 places in NYC and had never had the kind of service this hotel had. They actually looked happy to see us and did everything they could to accommodate us while we were there.

Our family enjoyed staying at the Morgans last week. We were upgraded to a superior room and allowed to check in early. The room was quiet and well appointed. The bed was super comfy. The shower was fantastic with great water pressure! Very refreshing after a long day of walking around. The hotel has a decent free breakfast of cereals, yogurt, pastries, juice and fruit. This was great as we were staying there with a toddler, so it was great to be able to give her a quick breakfast before heading out into the city. Coffee and tea was always available. Location was extremely convenient to the bus, taxis and close to subways. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip to NYC! A good value with great style.

I’m not going to lie — I stopped in here to use the bathroom. That’s right, no cocktails for me, thank you. Just show me where the lavatory is.
And what a sparkling clean bathroom is was! Well done, Morgans.

A boutique hotel at the heart of midtown. Complimentary breakfast was very Euro style. Delicious croissants and coffee amongst other baked goods. Ricky, one of the managers, was very hospitable and made sure the guests are content and taken care of. I can’t say that for others at the front desk. Be aware that when you book the one bedroom sweet, the windows face out to another buildings. You can not even see the sky. Very claustrophobic. Ricky took care of us and moved our room to a higher level where we actually had sunlight coming through.
The hotel did not have room service but you can call local restaurants who will deliver to the hotel. The bell man was also very courteous and friendly. Overall, I recommend this hotel.

Le Morgan’s fait partie des références incontestables de Manhattan.
J’ai eu l’opportunité de tester une de leurs suites pendant une semaine et j’en garde un merveilleux souvenir.
Cet hotel est atypique car même si c’est un chef d’oeuvre d’architecture, on né reconnait pas un hotel de l’extérieur (l’absence de nom n’aide pas non plus).
Le lobby est assez sommaire, j’ai rarement vu cela dans un hotel de ce standing mais il est décoré avec goût. On sait immédiatement qu’on est dans un «boutique hotel»
Les suites sont spacieuses (c’est le moins qu’on puisse en attendre) sauf pour la salle de bain qui est incroyablement petite. La décoration est superbe, très cosy, très boutique, haut de gamme.
Le petit déjeuner est inclus dans le prix de la chambre, ce qui est exceptionnel à Manhattan surtout dans les hotels de standing. Il est servi dans leur ancien restaurant, chef d’oeuvre de décoration, très lounge, avec coins canapés. Le vrai reproche est qu’ils n’ont plus de cuisine donc le petit déjeuner se mange froid (sauf pour les boissons chaudes bien sûr): pas d’oeufs, pas de charcuterie…
Une note appréciée: lorsqu’on a une suite, on est invité tous les soirs au bar de l’hotel pour un verre.
La réputation du Morgan’s Hotel est donc bien à la hauteur, c’est un superbe boutique hotel à né pas manquer lorsqu’on visite Manhattan

Given the price level this hotel is absolutely ok but would rather prefer Royalton or Hudson if choosing a hotel from the Morgans Group. The breakfast is ok and was included which is a positive. On the negative side the boring reception area

Checked out of the W hotel on Lexington because of the noise and into the Morgan.
Amazing! Rescued my awful short break in NYC.
Staff are lovely. Stayed in a fabulous loft style room on the 17^th floor.
Stylish hotel. Great value. Quiet area.
Loved it!
Booking again in March.

Love that it’s located in the heart of the City, perfect location for tourists looking for a place close to Times Square and the Empire State Building

This hotel does a fantastic job of fully utilizing the space in each room. The bathroom is tiny but the shower spacious. The room is small but has built in shelving and couch. There is free wifi and a great lounge for continental breakfast. Not much to complain about really. I would recommend it to all. The location is good just south of midtown in Murray Hill.

Everything in the hotel is clean and nice. Our room was modern and up kept. We enjoyed our five day stay but there were little things I wanted to share with anyone planning a stay here.
For starters, do NOT trust their recommendations on any restaurants close by to order for delivery. We got in around 9:30 one night and wanted pizza. You’d think being in NYC this would be simple, right? Wrong. They provided us with to menus and we ordered from on but the pizza got to us completely incorrect and looked like crap. After searching Unilocal we ended up finding our own place (garlic pizza) so if you want to order some food, try there!
Other than that, which really isn’t a complaint with the hotel just a little tip, the housekeeping comes around early so make sure you have that sign on your door if you don’t want to be woken up.

Review for their new bar, ‘reserve’.
I’ve always loved a choose your own adventure book, and when offered the opportunity to do that with an old fashioned? count me in!
With a roll of three dice, your fate is sealed according to spirit, syrup and bitters (mine came out to a blended scotch, salted caramel, and dandelion root). My drink was tasty without being too sweet, and the interaction was cute and surprising. The bartender explained the syrups are all made in house, which is a big plus to me.
Great selection of bourbon and they put down a small bowl of mixed nuts (the candied walnuts were fantastic).

If you want something unique, this is the place. They have great Asian fusion food. Love the ox tail eggrolls, salads and any dish I had there. The atmosphere is «friendly» it means you will be sitting at a table with strangers sometimes. The bar is always packed so get a reservation for this place.

This hotel reminds me of the Art Deco hotels on the strip in Miami. It’s an old building with a little bit of artsy feel. But without cinnamon-​skinned rollerbladers in bikinis, and million dollar cars parked in front it becomes too small and cramped to have any charm. I couldn’t get in the bathroom without turning sideways — and I’m pretty svelte.
The staff were nice, and the location good — other than being in New York and not Miami.

The epitome of a New York City boutique hotel. The room was a nice size for the price and the overall stay was great.
The hotel is undergoing construction though, which is kind of a downer. The lobby looks gorgeous but is deserted which makes me feel a bit weary.
Overall, I would recommend this hotel. The free breakfast is also very lovely.

I absolutely had a fantastic recent stay at the Morgans Everything, from the moment I walked through the door to check-​in to my departure, was perfect! Nicole, during check-​in, was awesome. I hate going to hotels where the employees make you feel as if they are doing you a favor versus the opposite. Anyway, she was super friendly, very conversational, and actually smiled. Service was pretty consistent from the doorman to the individuals from maintenance. I was always greeted and asked if everything was well with my stay.
The room was definitely not as small as I was expecting. it was well appointed with a platform bed, a nice desk, a psuedo couch, and lots of places to store your clothes. Everything was super clean, with no sign of dust, hairs, or other unsavory objects. The bathroom was TINY, but that is to be expected in NY. The Morgans offers Malin and Goetz bath products, which is a nice little bonus — sure beats the ultra fragrant Bath and Body Works products!!! The bed was a little too soft for my preference, but most people probably prefer a little more cush to their mattress than myself. That being said, I had no problems sleeping! The hotel was quiet, overall, and attracts more civilized guests.
I didn’t eat their complimentary breakfast they offer, but did see what they had to offer. They had a huge variety of pastries, muffins, toast, and bagels, as well as drinks. Breakfast is served on the penthouse level, which also serves as a comfortable place to chill out in the afternoon.
Price was pretty reasonable for NY standards, particularly during the time of my visit — NYU and Columbia graduation! My room averaged around $ 300/​night. Overall, I was beyond satisfied with my stay at the Morgans, and I look forward to a return trip!
And for the location… the address speaks for itself. You’re very close to most of the action — shopping, dining, Grand Central, and subway lines.
And Yes! Wifi is free and reliable!

I cannot say enough great things about this hotel and the amazing people who run it. I recently stayed here on a 3-​week business trip and this hotel took care of every accommodation for my colleagues and I.
The rooms are really comfy, roomy, and very stylish. I got to know the friendly housekeeping staff and they took great care of my room. The soaps/​shampoos are Malin & Goetz and its kind of the best smelling toiletries I have ever used. I now use their stuff regularly. The room features a flat screen HDTV, minibar, ironing board and iron, robe, umbrella (this came in very handy as it rained a lot on my trip!), free wifi, stationary, etc.
They have a great penthouse which is open to all guests. In the morning there is a very nice continental breakfast with bagels, pastries, toast, cereal, OJ, coffee, tea, etc. The view from the penthouse is quite amazing as well. Its open all day and into the night, and we spent many nights lounging in the different indoor/​outdoor penthouse areas. They also have an iMac and printer set up for guests to use in one of the side rooms of the penthouse.
The best part about my stay was definitely how accommodating the staff was. They were incredibly friendly and helpful, and no request (and believe me, we had some big ones) seemed out of the question.
They were also in the process of remodeling a new bar/​restaurant. From the looks of it, it is going to be quite nice.
All in all, this is a really great place to stay and I will definitely come back here on my next trip to NYC. Its located in midtown so its very easy to get around from here. Grand Central Station is about 4 blocks away, as is Time Square.
Big shout outs to Nubia, Todd, Marina, William, Conlin, Torian and the rest of the staff. You guys were great!
