I travel by myself and felt perfectly safe at this Hotel. I loved the location as I was on a Museum trip and many of the ones I visit were nearby. I loved the kitchenette and the ability to get my own morning coffee and my meals if I chose to stay in for the night. I be appreciated the bath tub as many hotels are taking them out. The star of my trip was the terrace. It was such a blessing to have an outdoor space. I truly loved that and will be back!

I rarely write reviews but felt my AKA experience was excellent. It’s a hidden gem near all the tourist attractions..Wonderful to have a kitchenette for stays longer than 5 days! Simple , understated design of room.

I stayed in A.k.A Central Park, while I was working in NYC, I liked the rooms they were large for NYC standards, and I liked the amenities and the location. I didn't particularly appreciate that my room was only cleaned one day during my stay, if I wanted everyday service I had to pay $75. I did not know this while I was looking and booking.

By New York standards our room was huuuge! We had a king size bed, kitchenette, dining table and chairs, walk-in wardrobe and a big bathroom with bathtub/shower combination. The hotel also has washers and driers available for use free of charge and they even provide the washing powder free too.   Location wise we were exactly where we wanted to be .....very close to Central Park without having to pay the ridiculous prices of the hotels literally just across the road from us. We have stayed once at The Plaza and several times at The Park Lane overlooking Central Park so we've been lucky enough to have the spectacular views but the prices have gone up so dramatically we decided it wasn't worth paying that price and opted instead for the AKA which is literally half a dozen steps across the road from the back entrances of both The Park Lane and The Plaza.   There are subway stations nearby making travelling around very easy and, if you want to make your own meals in the room there is a Wholefoods at Columbus Circle just a few minutes walk away.   When we return to New York we will be staying again at the AKA. The decor isn't as lavish and there is no spectacular view but at a much more reasonable price you get the same great location, an enormous room and more useful facilities than we had in either of the other hotels we have stayed in.

Super!

There were some complication and misunderstanding while making a reservation mostly on my end, however they took care of it really well and solved the all problems. It felt like I was staying my little studio apartment and I so much like it! Super great location. They don't have a real restaurant however they do have a nice cozy cafe on the first floor where you can have quick coffee or breakfast. The guy at the cafe is the sweetest guy! Loved everything here. I will definitely come back.

I did not enjoy my stay, and I don’t recommend it to anyone. The description on Expedia is inaccurate they do NOT clean rooms on a daily basis. They only clean once a week, which I disliked, it should be at least every other day. The shower design is extremely uncomfortable. There is no isolation so it’s noisy at night. Also there is no AC, which is also inaccurately described.

we've stayed here before covid so were glad to come back - this time booked a bigger room with terrace - was a lovely room just like the photos. However the fridge kept defrosting so we lost food several times. Is definitely not as good as before covid. But thats not the hotels fault its covid I am sure as before they had lovely mix and mingle evenings in the lively bar area - now none of that and bar open random short times, the cafe was hardly ever open either :( So these are things I hope will change now things are coming back to life post covid. I will say the doorman... never seemed to be interested in the doors or luggage. Our housekeeping ladies were lovely, so was Hugo for our airport drop off service. The location here is fabulous for anyone wanting to visit NY. So close to some of the prettiest stores to see at xmas :) Very close to grocery&food stores as well as higher price fine dining. Super near central park & subways. Fast internet - great tv channel selections and viewing channels, great on site laundry room. Its a fab spot for getting around and being near a lot of iconic places and not to close to the nosier places. The hotel room itself was nice and quiet too - we def enjoyed our stay here and would recommend it to others happily. Oh! my hubby & I are both short - the shower is really high & doesn't have a head that can lower & no shower on a handle so rinsing a problem - but has a bath sized so we could actually soak in so that was nice.

Una excelente opción para hospedarse a unos pasos de Central Park en Manhattan. El AKA es más un concepto de departamentos que de hotel, ya que cuenta con cocina integral y servicios como cafetería y gimnasio, pero no tiene un restaurante como tal. Un punto en contra es que la limpieza se hace cada tres o cuatro días, a menos que se solicite de manera especial en caso de ser requerido con un costo adicional. Cada vez que voy a NY escojo esta alternativa ya que me siento como en casa, aparte que su precio, considerando la zona en la cual se encuentra ubicado, es muy accesible comparado con los otros hoteles cercanos. Me he hospedado más de cinco veces en el AKA Central Park y sin duda lo seguiré haciendo y más tomando en cuenta que mis estadías en esa ciudad normalmente son de más de 7 días por viaje.
