Good location but poor maintenance
The keys to our room didn’t work throughout our stay. Every day, we had to visit the front desk multiple times to resolve the issue. We noticed other guests experiencing the same problem. When we mentioned it to the front desk before checking out, they finally acknowledged it was a general issue but didn’t provide an explanation. While the hotel is centrally located, it is in need of improvement.

Opera outing.
I traveled from New Zealand for three days of Opera at the Met then back home again. The Empire was a friendly base close to the Lincoln Center that was safe to come back to late at night.

The staff at hotel were amazing and the free water bottle/day was a great perk! Lobby is a perfect place to congregate. Having the rooftop empire hotel lounge on the property is convenient with good happy hour. Bathroom needs to be renovated - door didn’t close completely & just general wear & tear that needs attention. I would definitely recommend the hotel to anyone looking to stay close to Central Park and Theatres. Walkable to Times Square and subway stations as well. Rooms aren’t large and double beds are the standard in 2 bed rooms. We had 4 in our room so it’s a bit tight but doable.

Rooms are small but serve the purpose. A youngish crowd so one night they were rambunctious but quieted down. If opera going its right across street and there are plenty of eateries nearby.

My wife and I were in town for a conference at Lincoln Center. The location is great. It is noisy though. One improvement would be to supply coffee for your guests either in the lobby or in room.
