Great location and very large rooms. Plenty of space for our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 teenagers). The weather was quite warm when we stayed and they put in AC units which was helpful. The breakfast was very good. Staff were very friendly and professional.

This is a hidden gem in Manhattan. Our family of two adults and three teens had plenty of space to spread out after exploring the city. The staff was very kind and accommodating when we needed to drop our baggage before check in.

The "family" room is spacious with a great kitchen, comfortable beds, and lovely amenities. Our group of six loved the breakfasts too. Special thanks to Maria at the front desk for her warm welcome and attention to detail. The location was optimal because it's close to the subway and an easy walk to Times Square and theaters. We will be back!

I wasn't expecting such a nice large room at a great price in nyc. The room was awesome. My wife and I, and our 2 kids had loads of room and 3 tvs. Seriously could not be happier.
Breakfast was great. Buffet style. Coffee, juices, hot chocolate. It was nice to be able to get some food before going out exploring.

I really don't write any reviews, but this hotel deserves it.
From the time we arrived to check-out time everything was great. Jose at check-in was great, he was able to give us early check-in since our flight arrived at 8:30am. The room was big, clean and very comfortable. The breakfast was simple but very delicious. The location was great too. I do have to say that the only downfall was the fact that this property only has 1 elevator and one of our nights it wasn't working, we had the 8th floor, but a would definitely stay here again.

Excellent stay for a large family at a reasonable price. Our room was equipped with everything we needed. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was excellent. It had a great variety of choices even though the same thing is offered every day. Excellent location. Just a couple of blocks from Rockafeller and St. Patrick's Cathedral.
My only concern was with a broken window in our room that allowed a cold draft and a lot of external noise from the street.

The hotel is an older building with older central heating for an original NYC feeling (did not bother us at all). The apartments are unusual big with bedroom(s) and living room and a fully equipped kitchen. The breakfast is alright (buffet with eggs, sausages, waffels, bagles, fruit, yogurt etc - paper plates) The location is

The hotel had a quaint, family feel. The front desk staff were very sweet, and the staff at the breakfast room were quick to help any of the kids there.
I was hesitant about the location, but it turned out to be the best option. We were close enough to the action, but far enough away as well to have a quiet sanctuary from the busyness of the city.
We started off with a bit of a rough start, but the team at the Bayard went above and beyond to work with my family to ensure the best stay possible. I would definitely stay there again.

My family had the deluxe two bedroom apartment/ hotel room, and it was just more than comfortable. You have a lot of space to move about and individual spaces for personal time. They have a beautiful kitchen packed with dishes, utensils and useful cooking equipment. Its spacious, bathroom very clean, hotel warmth is superb especially for the winter season where it drops -10 degree celsius. Overall, highly recommend one stay here, the breakfast service was substantial but could include a little more variety. In addition, one also receives a hamper full of goodies on the day they check into the hotel. Staff are very friendly and helpful in all ways, providing nothing but the best service. Linen and room service replenish the room brand new, stocking fresh towels and sheets. Will come here again.
