Not in a good faith with service charges

I had $50 credit for the food and beverages for each day. After I checked out the room I asked the front desk for the credits already taken care on the final bill that I received. A staff mentioned it was automatically deducted so the total amount showed was correct on the bill. I spent extra time on the review the receipt at the coffee shop but it did not applied the credit that I should received for the orders from the beverages. I had to return to the front desk and talked to the hotel manager. She simply mentioned it was mistake and gave the credit amount to the charges made. I spent more than hour to figure the issues. It was very unpleasant experiences with services and not in a good faith business with the promised charges. I highly recommend to review your charges. I am no longer interesting to stay at The Plaza in the future visiting.

The Plaza is beautiful and well located. The detracting fact is that the shower leaks out onto the bathroom floor, there are only two hooks in the bathroom and those were taken up by robes. There are no towel racks. There are few shelves or other places to put toiletries. There are very few drawers for clothes. All there inadequacies make for an awkward stay.

Okay I have pictures to prove. This hotel is literally just a famous name. Went here for our daughter’s graduation present and was treated awful. We don’t look rich, so clearly they prefer when you do. Some ppl just don’t need to look fancy . Rooms are absolutely disgusting. Ted the door man though was the best thing about this place. Take alllll that money and get an actual classy hotel.

Staff, room, service and spa were all top tier. My husband and I had a wonderful weekend here. Everyone was so kind and professional. If we had one point of critical feedback, it would be that the Palm Court seems to have downsized their dinner menu since our last visit. We ultimately preferred the Champagne Bar for our special dinner, so if you're deciding between the two, definitely go with the Champagne Bar!! It was gorgeous and food was great.
