wonderful hotel for everything
Fabulous location, room was large, immaculately clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful. Loved being able to have car parked (valet service) for 48 hours for just $90. Coffee machine in lobby was always out of milk. Only downer!
Large, clean rooms. Very friendly staff.
It's always the first choice when i stay in New York. The location is so great, and room size is the biggest i have ever lived in NY. I will choose the same hotel next time.
We loved the hotel - nice and clean. Good breakfast

Great hotel in a superb location in K-Town with Korean BBQ joints all around to broaden your food choices. Subway stops within walking distance with Macy's and Times Square just a couple of blocks down. Will return!
We were staying Avalon hotel during our honeymoon. They provide a big suite and Moet & Chandon's Champagne!!! We really enjoyed staying and impressed with thier service. We will stay next time we visit NYC.

Value for Money for NYC- Great location”
Perfect location right off 5th Ave & where the Empire State Building is. Easy to get to all attractions right off 5th Avenue. Could not have chosen a better location. Staff were helpful and friendly at all times and rooms were spacious and clean. Well done, Avalon!! Made our 25th anniversary trip very memorable. I would return, no question!

Great place to stay ”
The place is very accesible everywhere since the location is the heart of manahattan. The only problem we encounter is the 7am breakfast which i find a little late. We are joining an 8am tour which is a bit far from our hotel for a meeting place. We went down to the breakfast area around 6:45 am and ask if we can have something since we need to leave early to join a tour and the guy fixing the breakfast immediately say no we cant we have to wait till 7am. Hope they can serve early brekfast for those joning early tour or early flights. Over all we had a good stay. The guy in the front desk when we checked in wa really nice and accommodating. Oh the free coffee and hot chocolate is really a plus.

Not perfect but a very nice hotel. ”
Hotel was clean, rooms big, convenient location, pleasant staff and efficient service. Price was decent.
The elevators were a little funky and not always working, coffee was downstairs (nice expressio machine) and there was no room service available.
I would definitely stay there again.

a gem”
This hotel was truly a pleasant surprise in NYC. The room was big, especially per NYC standards. The staff was friendly and professional. I asked for towels to be brought up to the room, and housekeeping was expedient. There were some street noise throughout the night on the street side, but it did not keep me from sleep. The only dissatisfaction I have is the $20 facitlity/resort fee that was an addition to the standard city tax. Otherwise, it was a good stay.

The most TERRIBLE HOTEL in my life”
Avalon hotel was the most terrible experience of my trip.
When I arrived at the hotel, they told me brazenly and unkindly that they had booked another hotel for us because they have no rooms.!!
They received overbooking and canceled my room even though I made a reservation in advance several weeks ago.
My old mother and I had to move our heavy luggages to the hotel they told me to go to.
The room what I booked on Avalon was a family room but Avalon hotel booked a smaller, narrower and darker twin bed room for us.
It was very very unpleasant.

Great location, friendly hotel”
Being on the corner of 5th and 32nd the location was amazing . Loved the size of the room. Coffee machine in foyer/lounge was terrific.
We had a lovely stay of 9 nights in the 40sq junior suite with two double beds. There is a building site behind the hotel which was very noisy and we had problems with the heating not working but an oil heater fixed that. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. It was nice to stay in a small boutique hotel in a great location in NY. Lots of casual eating places nearby. Walking distance to so many places and subway stops. Beds very comfortable . Bath was a nice luxury too. I would stay here again, especially as it felt so central to everything and it had a nice, intimate feel to it.

Bad start but good staff made the difference”
Location location location
Satisfactory but could have been better. Room size was good value for money in NYC although somewhat expensive overall. Stay got off to a bad start (was promised kettle in room to boil hot water to make formula for our baby but none available, not even coffee maker) and rude doorman was downright insulting but rest of the staff were extremely friendly, helpful, professional. The manager was swift to respond to our feedback and that made all the difference.

If you're not paying for InterContinental you can't expect the same standards”
Given the pricing the hotel represents fair to good value for New York. A short stroll to Empire States, Macy's and Times Square beyond. The hop on buses stop on 5th nearby. A comfortably dated lobby, free hot drinks 24h, lifts can be quite a wait. Rooms adequate and on request a kettle was provided. Security safe, empty fridge as well as mini bar, bath with shower, comfortable bed. For 2 or 3 nights it answers the needs. Breakfast covered by an amenity charge, cold but plentiful.
Staff courteous and secure storage for cases both on early arrival and later departure.
Would we go again? Quite possibly.

Dishonest, undisclosed fees”
You think you got a good rate for this hotel from Agoda, your email confirmation states that all fees and taxes are included but when you check out, the Avalon staff presents you with a bill that adds $40 / night for a "Residence fee". Surprise, surprise. They don't tell you anything when you check in, and when you ask them why you are being charged they tell you it's Agoda's fault for not including this. So I'm now reaching out to Agoda to figure out these extra charges.
The hotel itself is nice - it has this old elegance that is charming. However, the elevator is terrible and the breakfast is not good, plus these mysterious fees on top of everything else makes me not recommend this to anyone.

Staffs were very friendly and accommodating. Even though its located in very busy area, my room was very quiet.
Only one thing though, Lift was so slow and only one was active during my stay and room key didn't works 3 times so I had to go up and down 3 times during my one night stay … Very disappointing. So when they charged facility fee I can't really understand it. Plus, we had to go all the way down to get our water with one lift at that time it caused so much inconvenience.

Lovely hotel, perfectly located to be central to all that NYC has to offer., yet peaceful and quiet. Rooms are spacious, clean and well maintained.
