Hotel berhampiran Teater Apollo, New York

Omgosh ... hotel was really nice! Breakfast was excellent and it lasted til 11a, which is pretty awesome for those that like to sleep late. So many options (hot, cold and dry). They offer bacon, sausage, scrambled/cold boiled eggs and breakfast potatoes. Whole fruit (apples and bananas), sliced fruit (melons and pineapples). Cold and hot cereal (oatmeal). Yogurt and granola. You can make your own waffles or pancakes (such a cool machine). Make your own toast and/or select from many pastries or muffins available. So many options! You can even place an order vs. eating from the buffet. They also allow carry-out and to-go boxes. Drink options at the buffet include: coffee, O.J. and apple juice. PLEASE NOTE: There's a separate fee for breakfast if not selected when booking. Having said this, the hotel does not have microwaves in the room, just a fridge. There are microwaves located on each floor though (along w/ vending machines -both are in same location). Our room was spotless and absolutely spacious (no deviation from website)! We arrived way beyond check-in and did call once we knew we'd arrive later than expected. Spoke with front desk staff who assured everything would be OK, only to arrive and find that our room (which was already paid in full) had been given away. The hotel was only able to provide us a King and a rollaway bed. Of course we were disappointed, but the next morning the hotel Mgr. made everything right. Having said that, the rollaway bed is THE HARDEST THING EVER. We bring our own everything (e.g. bedding, cleaning supplies, etc.) so we were able to make it work and make it comfortable. So much so, we'd chosen to not to be moved to the room we'd originally booked. It rained our entire stay which is what caused us to arrive late in the first place (that's a whole 'notha story). Anyway, the hotel had a few small trash bins about the lobby catching leaks here and there, but that didn't stop anything. I barely even noticed. Had I not been recording how beautiful the hotel was inside, I would've never noticed. Parking is $30/day, it's NYC what do you expect? 🤭 There's also parking on the street if you can get spot. Careful though, NYC parking signs can cause confusion for those not familiar with the City's play on words. All in all, this was great stay for us and I'd certainly stay again. Oh, I forgot to mention -I did! Yes, I extended our stay another night because the hotel and location was exceptional! p.s. they also offer a seated bar area. Overall: 10/10✨️

This hotel is immaculate and absolutely everybody is above and beyond pleasant. Though not directly affiliated with the hotel, Inexpensive, super clean and very easily accessible parking is a two minute walk away at 25 Kent St. We paid $64 for 2 1/2 days of parking. The room was incredible. Exposed brick walls with super high ceilings, the bathroom had a huge tub and a wonderful shower. Pro tip: if traveling with someone that you do not want to see you naked, understand that it is not a one-way mirror over the bar and you absolutely CAN see into the shower While someone is showering. Luckily I was with my daughter, so this was not a real issue. The restaurant within the hotel and the Ramen place directly next-door are both wonderful. I did not make it to the rooftop bar this time but since I absolutely will stay at this hotel every time I come to visit I will check it out next time! The room was extremely quiet, temperature was easy to control. Now, a little too much honesty, I am an extremely “sensitive” person, and resting and hearing so much from the second I stepped into this hotel. I was never scared, as I definitely don’t typically get scared, but I had numerous very genuine and very obvious things happen while I say that this hotel, such as seeing things walk across the hall in both my room and the hallway, in the main lobby bathroom someone walked into the bathroom and into the stall next to me, but never left, and when I looked, there was no one there,and I was in the shower. I could hear several men talking to each other as if they were right next to me. I was definitely not hearing people from another room. I also heard the door to the stair well open, which is right next to our room and I was right next to the door so when I looked, there was nobody there and I pulled it shut again. Just out of curiosity, as to what was there prior to the hotel, on the way home my daughter looked up the history to the hotel. Let’s just say it was very enlightening as to why i was experiencing so much activity in this hotel, especially on the third floor next to what I will assume would have been a fire escape at some point. It also may explain why the first thing that went through my mind when I opened the front door of the hotel and turned to my daughter and said “I’m surprised the hotel gets away with door opening inward. It goes against fire code. Anyway, You can look up the history yourself and understand all that I have said. :-)  either way, a spectacular hotel at a decent price and a very safe and beautiful part of the city. I will definitely stay here again!

The hotel is in a very good location. Alexandra was so nice that she gave us a complimentary breakfast and accommodated us even before our check in time. It was a good experience. Although breakfast has a lack of food variety, it was good.

Room was clean and the views were amazing (see photo of the view from our room)! Although it’s a slight distance from manhattan, but it’s worth it. Nearest metro station is across the street but there’s only stairs (something to note if you are carrying luggages!) but the hotel is a walking distance from other metro stations as well so travelling is an ease. Would recommend for those who are looking to stay at a good place in Brooklyn!

Location is great, walking distance to Wall Street, Whole food market is so close. Most important, I have been upgraded to the room with River view ! Very nice ! Thank you ! ❤️❤️❤️

Room was alright for a night! Although could have been nicer, entered room it was so hot, the ac/heater unit made a loud banging noise throughout the night made it hard to sleep, towels were dingy, Customer service was good and friendly , didn’t get a chance to try breakfast. Definitely gonna be a go to for a quick stop in the city.

The location was good - as every other comment both on this platform and Google would say. But I agree with a lot of the reviews on Google (please take a look before booking). It is very old, mouldy (on walls, bathrooms, everywhere), dusty, and just not a hotel of this rating. I know this is not an expensive hotel for its location but for the same price I would definitely pick something else next time. It’s not really the cleaners fault but the hotel requires a complete revamp/redo. The carpets are very dirty and old. That said, at least the beds and everything was considered ‘clean’ (albeit old). For the avoidance of doubt… the photos on the platform / website do not reflect the state of it - we had pretty high expectations, and thought we had booked a gem…

Good location, staff were excellent.  Nothing was too much.  On checking in there was an error, only showed we had one room, but when showing confirmation was rectified straight away.  Close to subway to get around the city.  Rooms are small but what you need because you are out and about.  However, rooms are modern and quiet.  Wardrobe door was broken but didn’t spoil our stay.  Paid $125 per room deposit, only down fall was on checking out had another charge on my card, for both rooms and unsure what this is for.  Didn’t receive any confirmation or reassurance I will get my deposits back.  But overall couldn’t fault the hotel.  Roof top bar, probably needs some work, tiles were lose and staff weren’t ready when we went up, so didn’t stop for a drink just went straight back down.

Had a great experience. The location was fantastic since it was right by a train station. Also had cab drivers waiting outside for anyone who needed it.

Our group recently enjoyed a fantastic trip to New York City, and we stayed at The Gallivant Times Square. This hotel was an excellent choice for our students, teachers, and parents, providing a comfortable and convenient base for our adventures. Our trip to New York City was a huge success, and our stay at The Gallivant Times Square contributed significantly to that experience. The combination of comfort, convenience, and excellent service made it a memorable trip for everyone involved. I highly recommend this hotel for any future school trips to NYC!
