Superb rooms for a stay in a historic New York hotel.

The Algonquin is a historical site: it is here that authors and journalists have gathered since 1919 to discuss the world. Renovated about ten years ago, the hotel has lost its soul but not its charm. The rooms are quite small but warm and very well decorated. One of the strangeness of the place, a cat named Matilda (or Hamlet in the case of a male) haunting the hotel's corridors. A practice that dates back to the 1930s when a cat invited itself into the hotel to the delight of its guests.

One of the historic and great spots for midtown fun and especially useful if going to see shows and coming back for drinks before heading to your room.

Cramped even by NYC Times Square standards. Old and not well maintained. Noisy. Elevators took forever. Note that this property does not fully participate in Marriott Bonvoy so you will not receive most elite benefits (no lounge, no breakfast, no upgrades), though they did happily provide late checkout when requested. Points and stay credit did not post correctly and had to get disputed. They charge a not-well-disclosed "destination fee" that is essentially a forced prepaid, nonrefundable F&B credit. Fine if you were planning to eat/drink in the restaurant already, but feels a little scammy otherwise, as nobody really tells you about the F&B credit unless you ask and it's not written down anywhere. Unsure why this is flagged as a Marriott/Autograph as the property misses nearly all the brand standards.

On the good side: Location is excellent for Times Square, the bar and bartenders were fantastic and the staff were genuinely helpful. But they are bound by a run down property with sketchy policies. Would not recommend unless you have an exceptionally good rate and don't care about Marriott points.

It is situated at an awesome location and easy walk to everywhere. It is an old hotel but the room is very nice and cozy. Front desk staff checking me in was super friendly explaining everything upfront in details. The cleaning service could be slightly better - although the bed was made, the hanger l left on the bed was not moved and I had a "sweet" surprise crawling into the bed that second night.

Drinks at bar are super expensive, add in gratuity automatically. Rooms are a bit dated. Great location
