The Scene – Throughout this hotel you'll find imported marble, 18th- and 19th-century art, period furnishings, carved panels and art-deco details. The lobby and small lobby bar could have been lifted directly from a hotel in Florence. – – The Details – The spacious guest rooms carry through the modern Italian look with fine touches of glitz: pink and peach tones, rose-tinted mirrors and mood lighting. The marble bathrooms are furnished with mini-TVs and custom-fashioned Damigella toiletries. The very civilized restaurant, Limoncello, boasts fin-de-siecle wall murals,…

beautiful hotel
by glamourgirljoanne
We just spent this past Saturday night at the Michelangelo for my husband's 50th birthday. Unfortunately, we were not able to get an early check in (we had a bit of trouble reaching the concierge the week prior) but all was fine when we arrived. The lobby was quite lovely and the front desk was courteous. We were on the 7th floor and the room was spacious and clean (very important!). There was absolutely no view from our room. When we came back to our room after the show, the bed had been turned down but there were no chocolates on the pillow as I had heard there would be. Also, I was surprised that ice had not been placed in the ice bucket (better hotels usually provide this service). The bathroom was a nice size and the tub was quite large but a jacuzzi was really needed there. I loved the complimentary use of the robes and the toiletries were quite nice. The complimentary breakfast consisted of coffee, tea, cappucino and small pastries. Instead of sitting in the overcrowded (not to mention very noisy) lobby, opt to sit in the mezzanine above with small intimate tables for 2 with linen table cloths. Much nicer! All in all, I would definitely stay here again with adults, not children, as there isn't a pool or hot tub.
- Pros: very accessible to theater district (stay away from the "tourist" restaurants
- Cons: please bring back the dining room

Nice location and nice concierge
by catman77382
This place would be a five star if it was updated (new carpet, etc) and they opened the restaurant. It has been closed for a long long time and it is obvious they don't intend to ever open it again as it has been closed for a long long time and there is no work going in it. The room was very spacious and the bathrooms were nice with the largest tub you will get without paying $1K per night. The A/C you've seen mentioned in other posts is noticeable, but not really that bad a problem. They do need to learn how to tuck bottom sheets in though as they always came undone which is a pain to deal with. The decor is dated. With all that said though, I would recommend the place more so than most others I've stayed at including some high priced places on Central Park.
- Pros: Service and room size
- Cons: Needs new carpet and updating generally.

Beautiful oasis in the middle of the fas
by lizzy071062
Beautiful oasis in the middle of the fast paced city. Quiet, peaceful (not like the marriot down the road, blech!) Rooms were clean, very spacious. Sheets were changed everyday, fresh robe everyday. Elevators were fast and weren't busy or crowded. The free breakfast was a joke though (I certainly wouldn't advertise such silly little thing)..the coffees were weak, and pastries were sparse and stale. The man in charge of the breakfast was SO rude and miserable!! The staff in general wasn't very friendly, we didn't have to interact with them much though. The hotel was really beautiful and calming after a tough day in the city.
- Pros: beautiful, peaceful, clean
- Cons: rude staff
