OUR EXPERIENCE
Check-in time is at 14:00, so to make the most of out stay, we got there about 14:45. We were greeted by very friendly staff at check-in.
However, we were informed that our requested non-smoking room was not yet available. The gentleman checked us into a smoking room instead, stating, 'You can always come back if it smells of too ... ...plan to stay at the Swissotel Drake in New York, before the 31st of August you will receive VIP treatment - including an upgrade to a suite and late checkout.

Advantages: great position, good views, ladies wing Disadvantages: poor call staff, sometimes takes a while to get served drinks in busy period

I think their brilliant idea for this year however is that they have introduced a ladies only wing - the rooms have full length mirrors, steam free mirrors in the bathrooms and other such things to make you feel more welcome. i think they have put a lot of though in to this and it make it a very good choice particularly for a lady business traveller. the one problem we ...
