East Elmhurst hotel guide. Highgate Independent hotel in East Elmhurst, New York

"This is a perfect location for going to see shows. Can walk easily to a lot of theaters. Would even book again to just see shows. Checking in went smoothly but would have loved a little more guidance, elevator was a little tricky and I couldn’t hear the girl behind the counter because she was so soft spoken. It honestly would’ve been great to have been given a map of Times Square or told where the closest subway entrance was. The room was very clean. The breakfast was amazing even at the tail end the food was warm and nothing was out. We went down at 9:30/9:45 and it closed at 10:00 and we were welcomed. Not pushed out. They were very appropriately staffed for the morning and they worked like a royal Caribbean dining room staff. Tables were cleared and cleaned off immediately. Even with some construction of the lobby it did not get in the way of our stay."

"Great experience "

"We have been coming to the New Yorker for many years. Older hotel that's bones have some character. Some of the cheaper rooms are small. Staff is always accommodating, and location can't be beat."

"One of the most bad experiences I had ever The staff is rude and don’t care and don’t even check If they have aged or no or ketchup or no or even anything you ask for Everybody they are I say the other department go for it Very busy and all tourists come mid s hotel to enjoy in The pool desk was closed although given on the app and I thought that there is pool Even if it’s raining next day it was sunny why they don’t open it !! Or even let us sit on the chairs beside it And I didn’t see even coffe machine That was regret and room smaller than my restroom and view is terrible "

"All good,,"

"Hotel very accessible to Times Square. Rooms were clean and only thing was no wash clothes in bathroom."

"I love this hotel"

"The hotel staff was the best experience. I didn’t like the hotel food, and the room could had been more clean, location was great. "

"Our stay in New York was amazing! The hotel location is incredible and made it very easy to explore the city. The hotel itself is very good, super clean and organized, and we felt very comfortable during our stay. We loved everything! As a suggestion, it would be great if they had a minibar in the room, as it would make the experience even better. Other than that, everything was wonderful and we would definitely stay there again!"
