Hotel at the Trade Center and other New York City, NY Hotel/Accommodation Reviews

I'm a local New Yorker who decided to stay at the Millenium to get away from a crowded household during the July 4th weekend. The hotel is listed as 4 star hotel on priceline, but by most New York standards it was 3 stars. The service was adequate, the rooms clean, and the concierge service was excellent. The downsides were the following: The rooms did not have robes for after you step out of the shower. This is something I would normally expect in a 4 star hotel. The hotel did not have newspapers for each room and none were available in the lobby or for purchase in the gift shop. They do not have a coffee shop in hotel. The biggest issue for this hotel is the noise coming from the World Trade Center construction site. You need to be no a floor higher than 40 to avoid the noise. When I confirmed my reservation and entered the hotel no one commented on the potential noise. Luckily, I read a review on the internet and was able to get a room on the 53rd floor. What I also found amazing about this hotel that overlooks the site of the nation's worst terrorist attack, is that they did not have literature or information about the site. I found myself looking out at the site and wished the hotel had some answers about the development of the grounds. At $200 per night via priceline, this hotel was worth it. If I paid full price I would have been very disappointed and unfulfilled.

Unique Qualities: - Amazing via of the WTC footprint
- Close to SoHo and New York's art scene
