What Guests are Saying About Hotel Belleclaire

There is so much to recommend this hotel but unfortunately our experience was pretty frustrating. A month before our trip I called the hotel directly to confirm that the room we planned to book would accommodate a rollaway bed for our child - and was told it would. The day before our reservation was to begin, still in the free cancellation period, I again called the hotel to confirm and reserve a rollaway bed - and was told the information had been added to our booking - no problems. When we arrived, we confirmed at check in we wanted a rollaway bed, and tried to wait before going to our dinner reservation for it to be delivered. We finally had to leave, but encountered staff in the hallway with the bed, on the way to our room, and confirmed that some furniture would need to be removed from the room to accommodate it. Was told it would be no problem. Finally, returned late from dinner with a tired 4 year old to no rollaway bed in the room! A call to guest services informed us “your room size cannot accommodate a rollaway bed”! This was so frustrating as I had gone out of my way to confirm this multiple times and now it was too late to change our reservation. Staff did come to deliver the bed and remove the one piece of furniture at that point - but the whole experience seemed unnecessarily stressful.

A nice quaint hotel in the heart of New York's Upper West Side. The location is ideal next to subway stations and other bars close by.

The rooms are small and a bit on the dirty side, such is NYC. But you really can’t beat the area. An easy Central Park stroll to the Met, The Frick and the Guggenheim. There’s a subway station on 72nd and now that they use Apple Pay it’s a breeze to get around. $2.90 for a train ride anywhere in the city. Cheaper and way faster than a taxi. The hotel also gives out $10 coupons for the bakery next store. Made for a fabulous cheap breakfast.

Great hotel - clean, calm, and great service. The front desk staff was very hospitable and kind. Incredible stay!
