"Loved It!"
Myself and my husband stayed in the Beekman during the Halloween holidays and found it to be most pleasant.
we were placed in a suite on the 7th floor and it was huge and spotless. Granted it could do with a decoration re vamp but the maid service was excellent and i couldnt fault the cleanliness of the room.
The receptionists were always friendly and courteous and very helpfull when u needed advice on the best way to see the sights and where to eat etc.
The Nations Cafe across the road served fabulous breakfasts - such a choice and value for money.
All in all i would definately return to the Beekman next time we go to NY. The location is perfect if u dont want to be right in the madness of the city but close enough to walk to the sights.

"great hotel at a great rate!"
this was our second time to new york city and we wanted to steer clear of all the toruisty parts of the city!! we stayed at the raddison martinique on broadway our first time around and while it was a nice hotel the price for the size of the room was a little high which is to be expected in new york. we did extensive reasearch this time around and booked at several different hotels but then canceled due to multiple bad reviews on here. we finally booked at the beekman tower which was rated at the time # 38 out of over 300 hotles on here. We got a great rate on travelzoo @ 159 a night! when we got there the first rooms they showed us to were okay about the size of our previous stay @ the martinique but the rooms were very hot and we asked if we could be relocated. they upgraded us without any hestitaition to the suites with a seperate entrance. These rooms were amaizing, while outdated, the size and cleanlyness were great. the housekeeping was also great. we were never disturbed and always had a nice cleaned room to come back to. there was a huge kitchen equipped with full fridge, sink, dishwasher and stove. our room also had a dining table. there were only two rooms per floor which was great because we were traveling with friends which also were upgraded and shared the same floor with us. we herd very little outside noise. for those who complain about street noise, you do know your in the city that never sleeps right?!? The ac worked great in the queen suits and always had a nice cool room to come back to. if you want to stay in the heart of all the attractions this is not really the place to be. but if your in the mood to just walk the city and really soak up what its like to be a new yorker this is just the place. we walked EVERYWHERE!! we even walked from the hotel to central park, while tiring, it was a great expeierience and i wouldnt trade it for anything. if walking is not the thing for your there is a subway line about 4 blocks up on lexington ave and that connects to other lines but i believe that line runs to yankee stadium if you can catch a game. the staff was very pleasant when we had contact with them but with a seperate entrance to our room we didnt really have too much contact with them. the restaraunt on top of the tower had a great view but the drinks were kinda pricey. i had a coke and it was like 8 bucks. i would recomend this hotel if its your second time around and dont want the environment of tourists all over the place. i would also reccomend seeing other sites besides times square, we ate at a great restaraunt in tribecca called the tribecca grill. this was an awsome restaraunt, while a tad overpriced, the environment of the restaraunt was worth the price. it is partially owned by robbert denero if that makes any difference. also for sports fans Mantels is an awsome place to eat. it right across from central park and has everything a yankee fan could dream of!! there is also a little grocery store right across the street and the owner is awsome!! he even yelled at the hubby cause i was gonna carry the bag out!! lol! he was great! if you want to really expierience what its like to be a new yorker this is the place for you!! i might also add that the beekman is rated higher than the waldorf astoria!!

"Excellent Service, Better than Expected!"
Loved the personal attention! Stayed for 7 days. Checked in and got 3rd floor right below a bus stop, which was rather noisy as the buses pulled away. Room was nice but decided that a higher floor would be better. Front desk called right after we checked in and we asked if they had a higher floor. He said that the hotel was sold out for the night but they would try to find another room for us tomorrow. We were pleasantly surprised when they called the next morning and moved us to the 15th floor. The room was much larger and very quiet. This particular room had a table for dining which we also used for our computers. What made this hotel stand out for us, besides the size of the room, was the friendly service we received. Everyone was very helpful and attentive to all our needs. They made our first trip to New York City a wonderful experience. We would, with no hesitation, stay at the Beekman again!
