Lovely property. People comment on the dated environment. Yes, it is a tad dated but still so lovely. Great location, great staff, super roomy. Will stay here next time!
The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are cozy, elegant and spacious. The highlight for me was the welcoming, friendly staff. Truly looking forward to coming back asap ;)

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Clean, nice staff, convenient, could use an update!
Really worth it. Huge rooms. Sure the furniture is a bit outdated, but it's clean and sturdy. The bed was very comfy. Kitchen was clean and sufficient. Not a single complaint! And the front desk staff were very accommodating, allowing me to borrow a bistro chair for my room. Excellent views. This is truly a hidden gem. Would recommend over and over.
My daughter and I had the best stay at Hotel Beacon. The hotel was steps away from public transport, restaurants, and stores. We were able to walk to central park and museums. The staff went above and beyond to help us and were friendly and attentive. We felt very safe and the property was clean and comfortable. We will return!
We always enjoy staying at the Beacon when we come to the city. The rooms are spacious and there are great options for families. It has the feel of living in a city apartment. The staff is always friendly. Easy walking access to great UWS restaurants and conveniently located close to the subway.
Great place to stay on the UWS. Close to Central Park and the Hudson. Easy access to the city on the subway from the 72nd Street station. Nice size rooms.
We loved our short stay! The staff was helpful and courteous. The room was clean and pretty spacious for manhattan. It even had a tiny kitchenette and dining table. We walked to Central Park and Levain Bakery is just around the corner. I would stay here again!
This isn’t our first stay at the hotel. I choose it because it is away from the busyness of regular NYC tourist stuff.
The location is perfect: Upper West Side, two minute walk from the subway and a supermarket across the street (Fairway) what more could anyone want?!
Staff were friendly and helpful, rooms were clean, although a little out dated (get rid of the carpet)!
There’s a Bloomingdale’s outlet and Sephora close by if you’re in the mood to look around and Blue Bottle Coffee on Amsterdam.
I’d recommend and stay there again.
