"Nice hotel overall. The room and bathroom were spacious, and the shower had good water pressure. It took a few minutes for the water to get hot. The electrical outlets weren't convenient to the desk. The employees were helpful. I wasn't keen on the continental breakfast, though. I'd stay here again.2016-06-17"

"The Plaza definitely lived up to its reputation as one of New York's most luxurious hotels. With gilded gold and crystal chandeliers covering every surface, we felt like we had stepped back in time to Louis XIV's France. The rooms are some of the largest in the city, with huge bathrooms and plenty of storage. Service was first class. The food was excellent. Don't miss the afternoon tea in the Palm Court. We didn't try out the full-service spa, but the 24-hour gym was well-appointed and included both a Peloton bike and Peloton treadmill. Located on the corner of Central Park and Fifth Avenue, the hotel is well situated for a relaxing stroll or a shopping adventure. And when you return at the end of the day, the tranquility of the hotel lobby and the Champagne Room is a delightful reprieve from the hustle and bustle of the city. The Plaza is expensive, but if you're looking to splurge, it's worth it!2023-02-01"

Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
