On first appearances this is a wonderful hotel, lavish, expensive and truly worth the money.
The incontinetal Barclay hotel is on 111 East 48th Street, New York, NY 10017 which is pretty much slap bang right in the middle of where everything happens. The Empire State building a 5 minute walk away in one direction and grand central park 5 minutes in the opposite direction.
When you first arrive you will see the hotel stretch into the sky, it is pretty tall! A green cover over the doorway shields you from the rain. When you book in you cannot help to notice the lavish roof and centrepiece. After 5 miutes of booking in your bags are taken upto your room ready for when you meet them!!
The rooms are quite nice with small touches to give the room its finishing details.
Unfortunatly there was a problem with our room, the room wasn't made for four and we had to be moved! The second room, they had to supply us with another bed so my brother and I could actually sleep... well the second bed was already broken and we culd't even sleep on that so we got moved again to another room which ended out ok, a hectic start to our holiday to say the least!!
Once we came home from the holiday we had found the hotel had charged us for the two room changes, we were shocked, we had clearly asked for a 4 person room. It was definatly their fault and luckily we managed to avoid their extra charges!!!
It was a good hotel it just doesn't seem to worry to much about its "smaller" holiday makers with slightly less money! Unfortunate!!
