I recently had the pleasure of staying at this hotel, which offers an unforgettable view of Central Park. The location is a highlight, making it easy to step out for a stroll or to enjoy various attractions nearby. However, I found the room we had to be quite small, which was a letdown given the room price. The dining experience was average at best, especially considering the high expectations I had. Overall, it was a good stay but with a few areas that could use improvement.

I had a wonderful experience at the JW Marriott Essex House! The staff were incredibly attentive and made me feel very welcomed, especially the Assistant Front Office Manager, who went above and beyond to make my stay special. The room I stayed in was comfortable, and the hotel itself radiated a sense of luxury. However, my family's experience with check-in and unexpected charges was far from ideal, which certainly detracted from the overall impression. Despite these issues, the value provided in terms of service and the fantastic facilities makes it a place I would consider returning to.

I had a decent experience at the JW Marriott Essex House, particularly due to the helpful concierge and great location overlooking Central Park. Although the room was small and I faced some billing issues post-checkout, the overall stay was satisfactory thanks to the attentive service and variety of breakfast options. However, I did encounter a few hiccups with room allocation and late night service availability, which could use improvement.

My stay was marked by a fantastic location right by Central Park, offering easy access to various attractions. The room, despite being quite standard, was comfortable and quiet, although I felt it could have offered a bit more luxury for the price. Service was generally prompt, but there were some hiccups with valet parking that left a sour taste. Dining experiences were overpriced, yet enjoyable. Overall, a great option for those with expense accounts, but not ideal for personal trips due to the cost.

The hotel is situated in an amazing spot near Central Park, making it easy to explore the city. I was lucky to have a nice room with a terrace, but some facilities fell short of expectations, especially after comparing them to other top-tier hotels. Dining options were pretty pricey without delivering on quality. Overall, it offers a good location but lacks value for the high prices.
