Quaint accommodations. Very friendly staff. Our room was small but very clean and comfortable. I wasn’t aware that they had cars available at the hotel for guest to use at a moments notice, and at a reasonable price. It made it so easy to transport us to events we planned and transportation to the airport. It was a very pleasant stay.

Mediocre Service
I had two separate reservations; one for a room for two on October 28th (room 205) and the second for a room for one on October 29th (room 401). I left a shirt in the first room, and I didn’t receive it. This is indicative for the service commitment of the hotel; not high enough. Otherwise, the hotel is nice. Room 205 was ok while room 401 was in a better condition. acacacacacacacacacacacacacacacaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccdddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeefffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

This is the 4th time I've stayed at the Lucerne and have always enjoyed the property and neighborhood. This time was no exception. From the doorman to the front desk to the housekeeping all are a 10 in my book. Not to mention the restaurant Nice Matin, absolutely fabulous.

Friendly and helpful staff at checkin was much appreciated. The hotel is “older” but had the ambience of a set from the BBC production of “Poirot”. Price was average for mid-town Manhattan so no surprises there. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

Great location! 1 block from the subway, a few blocks from Central Park. MANY great dining options. The bagel shop diagonal from The Lucern was great. Class Salvo for cappuccino and a cornetto (just like Italy). Jacob’s Pickles amazing southern breakfast/brunch. Maman for coffee and goodies. The Wolfe for a great happy hour, even 11pm till closing, kitchen closes at 11. So many dining options! The Lucern is an older property with great architecture you can’t go wrong. If I go back I will stay here again.
