A great get-away

Customer review rating 4.5/5

John I. H. Families - 21/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

two minor hiccups: the heating in the main suite was not working, and the first repair person sent to fix the issue was rude and did not fix the problem. It was the second repair person the following morning who was able to fix the problem. Second (and VERY minor) hiccup: misunderstanding that when I asked for the butler to bring coke zero and lemons, the room service was sent instead - I thought room service was the butler, and asked where the coke zero was.. end result was that room service AND the butler BOTH brought the coke zeros (and I was charged for both). No big deal, as we ended up drinking them anyway, but the misunderstanding could have been avoided with a little better explanation... These hiccups notwithstanding, the rooms were spacious, comfortable, clean. The butler service was terrific. In fact, besides the one repair person, all the other Plaza employees that we encountered were pleasant and helpful, most going out of their way to see to our comfort. The room service menu, service and food were very good. The one issue I had (a lobster tail forgotten from my salad) was immediately remedied. We had occasion to go to the lounge area near the concierge desk, and our experience there was wonderful... excellent appetizers, beverages, and service. I also visited the gift shop, and that too was a great experience. Very helpful staff there. The concierge staff was pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable in my dealings with them.

F. Scott Fitzgerald Suite

Customer review rating 4.5/5

Cidney G. Couples - 11/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

One night only without the kids for a change. We took this opportunity to try the F Scott Fitzgerald suite that we had always wanted to experience. Because it is just easier with the children, we usually stay in the van about sweet. But there are so many other wonderful sweets we’d love to try in the hotel. So this was our chance. The room seemed very worn and tired. It was not what we expected. There was a huge fresh red wine spill on the rug in the sitting area in the middle of the room. Also one of the light fixtures in the bathroom was broken half off. Overall things just felt a little more “worn” than we’re used to from the hotel. We did notify housekeeping about the stain on the rug, and they clearly tried to steam clean while we were out at a show. It helped a little and we appreciated the effort. We absolutely love the idea and the specialness of the room, but think it’s possibly time for a refresh.

Nice

It was my daughter’s bday celebration and I mentioned that when booking, expecting there to be an arrangement or special treat of some kind upon ENTERING our room but it appeared after the fact...only when I mentioned it to our bellhop...a bit of a let down, to be honest.

Worst Hotel Stay Ever

Customer review rating 0.5/5

Heather F. Business - 10/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We chose to stay at the Plaza versus the other hotels we are normally stay at in the city for this visit. When I come to the city I am usually in meetings from very early in the morning till early evening. I return to my hotel after grabbing dinner, prepared to sleep, only to find out that the Plaza Hotel has rented the penthouse next to mine for a party. So instead of going to sleep there is club music and lots of loud women in my ear. When I call the front desk I am told that they apologize but there is nothing they can do as the PR team rented the room without their knowledge and I’ll just have to deal with for another hour or so. They offered me a $300 credit for the inconvenience. I have never been so abhorrently treated at a what is supposed to be a luxury hotel in my entire life. $300 is slap in the face compared to the sleep I am currently without. I just wanted management to be aware of the horrible choices your staff are making that are costing you high paying customers. I will never again stay in one of your properties if this is how business is conducted.

Beautiful Break

Customer review rating 4.0/5

Wendy A. Solo - 06/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Just one disappointment - Computer system went down and I was unable to order Room Service for Breakfast. I think Guests should have been advised of the problem with a note slipped under the door as I wasted so much time trying to get through to Room Service which continually answered with a message asking me to hold as they were dealing with other guests. I finally got dressed and went to the restaurant for breakfast only to find out there was only a small buffet available - most of it wasn’t suitable for my vegetarian diet and because it was a set price, it was very expensive for just fruit and yoghurt and coffee which is all I ate.

Good hard product, atrocious service.

Customer review rating 1.5/5

Michael C. Friends - 06/02/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We really enjoyed the facility itself. The room was comfortable and well appointed. However, the customer service we received was atrocious and far below what we've come to expect from Fairmont properties. Despite being suite guests we were never once acknowledged or introduced to our butler, the room service was terrible and fouled up or delayed every order we made. What was most inexcusable was a staff members knock on our door at 1 a.m. trying to remedy a mistake in room service solely the fault of the hotel. It was simply unacceptable.

Michelle C. Families - 31/01/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I come to the Plaza at least once each year on my birthday. Recently I've been staying with my adult granddaughter in a Carnegie Suite. I always give her the bedroom as I want her to have that experience. Unfortunately, I have found the convertible sofa to be impossible for sleeping. I've slept on other convertibles successfully, but either the condition (old) or general quality of the ones in the suites are really bad. I did get a rollaway on the 2nd night and that worked out, but I think these should be complimentary or something should be done about the convertible. If you are going to provide them, they should be usable. Having said this, the Plaza is my favorite place in NYC to go to stay or get a drink or a quick meal. I have been a New Yorker all my life and I have a particular affection for the property - I hate to see any attention to detail overlooked. Thanks for the opportunity to give my input.

Dear Ms. C., We very much appreciate your comments regarding your stay at the The Plaza - A Fairmont Managed Hotel. It is always a pleasure to receive positive feedback, and I understand your concerns regarding the sofa beds.

I was traveling with my 5-year-old daughter. We only had 48 hours in NYC this trip so I knew a central location would be important. We were able to walk to the Met and Rockefeller Center, and simply cross the street to visit the Central Park Zoo and carousel. We are many meals at the Plaza Food Hall right downstairs and also enjoyed a leisurely meal at the hotel's Palm Court restaurant. The service and amenities at the hotel were top notch and the rooms are beautiful. My daughter said it was a dream come true, and I agree!
