Having stayed at the Towers a year ago and absolutely loved it, I was rather pleased to return this winter during a trip to New York to celebrate my birthday. Though we had actually booked a room on the concierge level of the Waldorf-Astoria, we were very kindly upgraded to the Towers itself. I wrote a glowing review of the... More

This is my 4 th trip to NYC and enjoyed the historic hotel and good location. Unfortunately no upgrades but I booked through Expedia and certainly no exceptional customer service. We had no view of city but we did have hot water and good water pressure. Wifi was intermittent but was able to play around and keep resetting.

I was in NY for just one night, and they upgraded me to THE WINSTON CHURCHILL SUITE!! OMG. I felt just like Princess Diana for 24 hours.

I was fortunate enough to stay 3 nights at the Waldorf Towers. A truly world class hotel with first class service, rooms, location and 'feel'. The Waldorf Towers have effectively managed to provide the modern day hotel experience whilst retaining the old world charm and glamour of yesteryear. A must do!
