Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently: "More than we wished for!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
We chose the Empire Hotel for our Anniversary Celebration since it looked lovely and was near Lincoln Center where we were dining. That choice proved to be an excellent one, as we were chosen 'Guests of the Day!' and upgraded to a suite! I was so grateful and the accommodation was fantastic for us. Thank you.
