This hotel is terribly overpriced and the facilities are old and inadequate. There was no fridge in the room. What if people with diabetes need to chill their insulin? So inconsiderate.

1st room was the over flow room. Air conditioning did not work. Very hot night. Next morning they corrected w a very good room w AC. However, all concrete rooms w no art, no style except for brutalist modern concrete floors/walls. Could be very nice w better staff & art to give it a pulse vs a slab.

I stayed at The Boro for a week. Spacious, light filled, and clean guest rooms. The staff is extremely friendly and accomodating. The front desk service is amazing and Andrea went above and beyond to make my stay welcoming. Thank you once again. The maintenance, housekeeping, and room service was out of this world. Beebe's has a fantastic menu and delicious food. Definitely would stay at The Boro again and highly suggest you do so too.

Decent hotel for New York. Very spacious King corner room that had very minimal decor. There were not outlets and night stands on both sides of the bed. A fridge had to be requested. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room cleaning was great.

Had a great visit to NY. Stayed at the Boro because it has a restaurant and a lovely rooftop bar. The rooms are comfortable, the beds are very comfortable and city views are very nice. The showers are excellent. They do not have mini fridges in the rooms so if you have leftovers from a restaurant, you most likely have to discard them. The food is very good at the hotel restaurant, but staffing seemed short. Laundry service is available but not terribly timely when awaiting return. Overall this is a very good spot for comfortable rooms and good restaurant bar and morning coffee service. It’s convenient to great local spots offering excellent international dining and above average cocktail bars. Also close to the subway with proximity to Mets Stadium and the US Open complex. It’s clean and safe and comfortable with a cool “industrial chic” vibe.

The staff at the Boro Hotel were amazing. David handled our check-in/out, and he was wonderful, as was every other interaction I had with the staff. I booked through Expedia and had no issues. The amenities were very nice. The gym is a small spot, open 24/7 with your room card. It has a treadmill, elliptical, heavy bag, yoga mats, bosu ball, and a large set of dumbbells. I used it 4 mornings during my week there, and only overlapped my time with one other guest (i.e. it wasn't crowded). It was small but plenty. And it was IMPRESSIVELY CLEAN! As was the rest of the hotel. Beebe's restaurant (first floor, rooftop, room service, and lobby cafe) had solid food. The lobby cafe makes great lattes, and also offers complimentary hot drip coffee to guests each morning. The pastries appeared to be brought in daily from a local bakery (perhaps?) and the chocolate croissants were downright impeccable. We stayed on the 6th floor with a balcony. For me, I enjoyed being able to step out and feel the weather. It also gave me privacy to take phone calls. The Boro has what is, in my opinion, an extremely underrated feature - on the basement level (where the gym is located) there are 4 private bathrooms. So easy to hop off the elevator and have some privacy, particularly if your room's bathroom/shower is already in use. There is also a microwave in the basement. No gift shop or vending machine, but it's NYC so there is a bodega on the next corner! We loved it here and will return!

This hotel was a great vibe. My girlfriend and I just wanted a nice chill spot to spend our anniversary and this was perfect. Starting from the guest service at the check in desk, to the room with its high ceilings, balcony, and city view, to the elegant bathroom and shower. And Beebes restaurant was awesome. We ate there 4 times that day. The manager was also very personable and checked in to make sure we were enjoying our experience. 10/10 and definitely will be doing this again.
