Here’s a hotel that comes with some expectations. The London NYC hotel is fresh off a thorough re-imagining at the hands of the Irish interior designer David Collins, as well as the addition of a marquee name to New York’s culinary scene, in the form of the first Gordon Ramsay restaurant on American soil.
Despite the name, the London NYC hotel steers mercifully clear of any kind of heavy-handed British-themed kitsch. Suites range from quite spacious all the way up to downright sprawling, a luxury indeed in a city where, as in London, hotel room square footage is at a premium. The look is muted but not minimalist, a sort of understated modernist luxury, with extra attention paid to the tangible comforts, like iPod docking stations and multi-headed showers.
There’s a fitness center, which is stylish, for a fitness center, and meeting space, as well as an award-winning concierge service. So far so good. The most eagerly awaited facet of The London NYC, however, has got to be the Gordon Ramsay angle. As with anything Mr. Ramsay does, the headlines threatened to distract from the cooking — but in the end the important point is that London NYC’s restaurant is far enough beyond most hotels’ offerings as to be playing in a different league entirely.

What I liked:
The shock of checking in to our room and seeing Central Park.
Location: close to the subway, the theatre district, and 5th Avenue. Anything further afar can be reached thanks to the complimentary car service.
What the hotel could do better:
Nothing major, but there were lapses in "service". Why did they ask what newspaper we wanted and then never deliver it? Why was it so confusing for the breakfast staff to complete an order for a single boiled egg without charging full breakfast price?

What I liked:
This is a sexy, stellar and top-notch hotel in New York! The location is superb, the rooms are gorgeous and the staff are very accommodating.
What the hotel could do better:
Slight upgrade to the mini-bar weighing process. if you move something around by accident to put in your own bottle of water, or medication, it's an auto-charge until you tell them. The hotel is working on it and is well aware, so this won't be a surprise.

What I liked:
Great location, large comfortable rooms. Decor is not to my taste, however, the size of the room (bedroom & living area) and amenities made up for this. I wouldn't hesitate to return to this hotel.
What the hotel could do better:
Lighting in the Lobby is a little dim.
