6 Columbus
6 Columbus Circle, New York City, NY, USA
Neighborhood: Manhattan - Midtown West
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
The long-awaited Upper West Side sequel to Soho’s successful 60 Thompson is here at last. Like its sister, 6 Columbus is named for its address, and it’s a prestigious one, right on Columbus Circle, next to the Time Warner Center retail-and-dining development and at the southwest corner of Central Park.
Designer Steven Sclaroff’s inspiration was Sixties modernism, but beyond some touches of fur and leather in the lobby, any Austin Powers–esque kitsch is studiously avoided. The 6 Columbus Hotel is stylish, in a somewhat serious vein, never stuffy, but always impeccably composed. The rooms aren’t huge — this is still New York, after all — but they’re well-equipped with all the luxe-boutique must-haves (flat-screen TV, iPod docking stereo) and some thoughtful extras as well (Dean & DeLuca snacks in the minibar, Kiehl's toiletries in the bathrooms).
Service is quite a bit friendlier than you might expect from such a fine-looking hotel, and while the amenities aren’t quite on the luxury-hotel level, neither are the rates. Anyway the absolute necessities are accounted for: the Blue Ribbon is a sushi restaurant and a swanky wood-paneled cocktail bar, and a second rooftop bar and lounge, complete with park views, is set to open soon.
- Complimentary upgrade upon hotel check-in, based upon availability
- Guaranteed 4pm check-out
- One complimentary glass of Sparkling Sake from Blue Ribbon, per guest, upon arrival
- Complimentary Bouchon Bakery treat

What I liked:
Good location. Pleasant enough decor. The doormen were all very sweet and helpful with suggestions in the immediate area.
What the hotel could do better:
Some of the room are VERY small...even for NYC...and the walls are VERY thin. The common areas also are quite small. The room service took way too long. That being said the front desk did change our room for us when we requested that.

What I liked:
Great location for business in and around Columbus Circle. Relatively affordable, yet still has character and style.
What the hotel could do better:
I stayed here twice over the last month. The first time was very pleasant and I didn't hesitate to book it again for my next trip.
But my second stay there was a different, and more disappointing experience. The room they gave me was right above the entrance and the bright lights made it hard for me to fall asleep - even with the shades drawn. There was no trashcan near the desk (previous room had this), forcing me to stuff my waste into the small narrow bathroom trashcan. Also, the shower had a faint smell of mildew.
Worst of all, the hallway outside my room smelled like vomit the entire time I was there.
When I checked out, there was no doorman to help me navigate the heavy doors or hail me a cab.
