New York Manhattan Experience | Giraffe Hotel
| Giraffe Hotel. For this trip to New York, we chose to stay at the Giraffe Hotel in downtown Manhattan. The hotel is located at 365 Park Avenue South At East 26th Street, and the surrounding area is very convenient. Especially, it only takes about 30 minutes to take a taxi from LaGuardia Airport, and you can reach the hotel for about $50.
The location of the Giraffe Hotel is excellent, within walking distance to Madison Avenue, the Empire State Building, and Herald Square, and the subway station is just across the street, making it very convenient to travel. The hotel's decor is very modern, the reception hall is spacious and comfortable, and there is free champagne and snacks, which is especially great 👍.
As for the room, I have to mention their attentive service. Our room was not only spotless but also very spacious and comfortable, with a perfect sleep quality 🌛. The mattress, pillows, and sheets were all soft, and there was even a sleep aid machine, which was so reassuring in a noisy city! Every night we looked forward to tasting the wine and cheese they provided and enjoying the piano performance, the relaxing atmosphere was great.
The hotel offers a delicious continental breakfast 🍳, with a wide variety of fresh bread, cheeses, and fruits, and we were very satisfied every morning. And they also offer free use of a nearby gym, which is a great benefit for fitness enthusiasts.
The location of the Giraffe Hotel is perfect for sightseeing. The famous Empire State Building is within walking distance, and you can overlook the entire Manhattan skyline from the rooftop observation deck 🌇. We also went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where the Egyptian Gallery, European Painting Gallery, Chinese Gallery, etc. made us linger. It is also very convenient to take the subway to Central Park, where walking and biking are great experiences 🚶♀️🚴♂️.
In addition, there are many dining options around the hotel. We tasted delicious French cuisine at Petite Boucherie and authentic Italian food at Piccola Cucina Estiatorio 🍝. The desserts at Angelina Bakery Times Square are not to be missed, highly recommended!
Overall, the location and service experience of the Giraffe Hotel is worth recommending. Whether for vacation or business trip, this will be a good choice. With three stays under our belt, we truly believe this is one of the best places to stay in New York 💼🗽. Looking forward to staying here again next time we come to New York.
