Hotels near Swallow in New York

Hotel is located in a very convenient place, public parking is right across from the hotel, 10 minutes walk to Time Square. 15 minutes walk train station. Hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. We stayed there for two nights, room is small and has only basics but functions, I am happy we stayed there.

as expected, the pod room is compact and clean. the shower is great. having the toilet in it is odd. ok for a solo traveler but not ideal for a couple. air con worked well. wifi was good tho not super fast. the location is fantastic, very close to great shops and cafes etc. having a good sized safe under the bed is great to store valuables. the bed is big and comfy - tho it was very easy to bash your leg against the edge of the frame, which i did three times within a day before hanging a towel over it to avoid further leg scuffs! only four hangers in the room but another four delivered swiftly when requested. having a mini fridge in the room would have been welcome.

We arrived after a lengthy trip at 1:30 am and first impressions were not that great as we viewed the welcoming light from the Hilton Garden City Hotel next door and The Herald had a dark entrance with little lighting. When we entered the hotel, the lobby wasn't particularly welcoming with a fellow in a T shirt sitting behind the registration desk. He was very nice but the setting was not all that professional with a number of items on shelves, etc. The hotel was more than able to provide us with a request for a quiet room higher in the building - we were on the top floor in a corner suite with FOUR windows. The room was cool in temperature which was very welcoming. The room had quite a bit of space but only two very small drawers for clothes. It was nice to have a safe, fridge, and fairly large metal counter/desk. The bathroom was good with lots of hot water on demand and a welcomed long narrow counter to put toiletries on. The service staff were pleasant but we didn't know what we would receive from them each day - different number of towels, sometimes more shampoo, etc., sometimes none at all. We would encourage them to have more than one bottle opener which was kept at the front desk and you had to take your bottle down to them to get it opened. The best part was the very comfortable bed and pillows, soft but supportive which meant we slept very well. I would like to know what the brand of the mattress because I would get one, it was so comfortable. The location is very good albeit a bit noisy being on the corner of two busy streets and all the damn tourists (that includes us). Subway station was very convenient being just outside the front entrance. There is a club on top of the building so we were just below and on the weekend the music was quite loud but it stopped at about 11:30 pm so that was good.

After a long flight from the UK we arrived to check in and were greeted by very friendly reception staff who asked us all about our trip, where we were travelling to etc, so we explained we were at the start of a roadtrip. We asked if our room rate included breakfast, it didn't, but the very helpful Nate said he wanted our trip to get off to a good start and gave us a voucher for breakfast. Was a lovely gesture, very welcome and the next morning it set us up for the day - thanks Nate! The hotel itself was fine, the room perfectly adequate. Our only issue was the family across the corridor. I think there had been a problem with their room so they were in the hallway making such an amount of noise which carried on inside the room. I believe several complaints were made as it was as though there was a party going on. Security came up a couple of times and it eventually quietened down. Just not what we needed at 11pm onwards after a long flight, nor I'm sure did anyone else.

The front desk staff were helpful and friendly, greeting us and acknowledging us each time we left and returned to the hotel. There were always staff members opening and holding open doors for us, everyone smiling. Though the room was rather small, the space was maximized very thoughtfully and efficiently. Bathroom was really nice.

We chose this hotel based on being an IHG and close to the Newark Airport. We tripped in to New York City daily and learned to use the hotel shuttle bus, a couple of trains, the subway as well as Uber and Lift. The staff at the airport were very friendly and helpful.

This was the perfect stay! The front desk workers were really helpful and friendly. Luis A. Was the main guy that took care of me and my guest. He was very helpful with extending my stay for an additional night.

Had already stayed 3 nights in another room in the same hotel and wanted to stay another night, but couldn't stay in the same room cause it had been booked. This time didn't get the same view, but it wasn't bad all all. The bell man downstairs hold our luggage while we waited to checked in. Will recommend this hotel to anyone that wants to come and visit New York City.

Comfortable beds and pool was open (rare these days!) but staff need to pay closer attention to rooms and amenities - broken gym equipment, ripped towels, previous guests’ clothes overlooked and left in room, etc. Several different instances of negligence, which negatively impacted our stay.
