The San Carlos has become our home away from home when in NYC. The staff is always welcoming and professional. The rooms are clean, comfortable and spacious (especially by NYC standards). The hotel is in a great location near a number of good restaurants (Spice Symphony in the lobby is fabulous) and easily walkable from several subway lines. They could use to make some minor repairs (I noticed a number of paint chips, dents and scuffs in our bathroom (Room 908), but that didn't detract from our stay in the least. We look forward to our next stay.

Wonderful, in spite of "Resort" fee

The room was large for NYC, which was great. I didn't hear my neighbors, also wonderful as that is usually an issue in NYC hotels. It was SPOTLESS. They had a coffee maker in the room, another rarity for NYC. My only issue - and this is industry wide, is an additional $40 per day "resort fee." This gets you 2 small bottles of water ( I could buy that at the corner store), WiFi (already have it on my phone) and access to a gym I am not using. It is an outrageous fee. They aught to set a trend and give the guest an option to OPT OUT. All that being said, I'll be back.

This place is a gem! I can't believe how spacious the room was. We travel with two kids so having extra space makes such a difference and so rare to find in New York city. The staff was friendly and helpful. The location is great. close enough to times square/theaters to walk but far enough to be quiet.

The San Carlos Hotel is a winner.

The San Carlos is our go-to hotel in NYC. Over the years we have found the welcome to be warm, the suites to be an excellent value, and the location works perfectly for us.
