Beacon Hotel

We had tickets to the Beacon Theater, and thought we'd splurge on the hotel, too. We've stayed in near by hotels before, but I thought I was upgrading for luxury. Sadly, no. It is just a run of the mill Holiday Inn inside. Tiny room, hard mattress, peeling wallpaper, a closet of a bathroom. The only upside was the walk to the venue. The Arthaus is only a block away and actually feels luxurious. Don't fall for the hype. You can get more for less money and not give up convenience. Oh, and the tap water was blue.

Always clean, great staff, housekeeping, etc. This is a true hidden gem on Upper West Side. The location is great for getting taxis, Ubers and is conveniently across the street from NYC icons Citarella and Fairway. My wife and I always stay here and have never been disappointed

My husband and I stayed enjoyed our stay at the Beacon Hotel. Our room was perfect, we loved the decor, the amenities and all the little things (cream, q-tips…) they left in the room in case you needed them. I would definitely recommend to others and we will definitely visit again.

Adored Room 5. The bay window area is so wonderful and the bed was luxuriously comfortable.

I knew that the it was not a normal hotel. I was ok with that. The hallway was dirty and smelly. The room itself was clean and had a refurbished bathroom. The fridge was great and they even left me some bottles of water. The building is in a construction zone. I stayed there two nights. The first night I was awaken to drilling at 5:30am. The second morning they waited til 8 to drill.

Definitely a don’t judge a book by its cover moment. Entry into the building and room had no issues, but it was not quite the vibes I was expecting. The minute I stepped into the room though all was good and looked exactly like the photos. Great location and the amenities suited my trip.

We loved the location! We came for a family wedding and was walking distance to the venue. Had a great time room was clean and has everything we could need! Would definitely stay here again!

This more on an air b and b then hotel. The location is amazing since it is right on Main St. It was perfect for a place to crash during out brief getaway to Beacon and the price was right. No one on site, questions had to be emailed but the staff who responds is very nice.

This place was completely disgusting. falsely advertised on these trip websites. There is no lobby, no front desk, no one to contact for problems. The building is under renovation, so its not even a completed hotel. You enter through a seedy short term mini apartment rental facility entrance. The hall reeks of cigarettes and who knows what else. We had to get a resident of the rentals to let us in as we had no codes for the doors, you need 3 separate codes for 3 doors to get to your room. felt very unsafe. Cleaning lady who just happened to be there let us in the room. She only cleans once for your entire stay; we booked 7 nights. I am a 66-year-old male, in decent shape but had to carry all our luggage upstairs to the room, at my own risk. The room was OK, but had leftover shampoo, soap, toothpaste, and other sundries from previous guests. I would have left at this point but was later in the day and had nowhere else to go. Next morning, went to shower and there was NO HOT WATER and no one to contact, this was the straw that broke the camel’s back, we packed our bags and left. We then reached out to Agoda to get our money refunded, over $1300 to no avail. Stay far away from this place.
