No title - expert review
The elusive Roger Smith lends his name to this colorful boutique hotel and adjacent gallery. Riotous murals cover the walls in Lily's, the café. The art-filled rooms are homey and comfortable, and some have stocked bookshelves and fireplaces. An eclectic mix of room service is provided by fiv...

Decorated with warm woods, colorful murals and amorphous metal sculptures, this hotel is a funky yet comfortable alternative to more standard neighborhood establishments. There’s even a gallery off the lobby where it showcases the works of contemporary artists. The 130 guest rooms and suites ha...

do you feel lucky? - user review
I'm not sure how to rate this hotel. The rooms are nice, could use a little updating. We stayed in two rooms, the first was nice, comfortable and fairly quiet (some street noise, even though it was the 10th floor). The shower was strong and hot. Then, the electricity went out in our room! Well, afte...

Great location but lots of street noise - user review
At 47th Street and Lexington Avenue you can't beat the location of The Roger Smith. You can easily walk to Central Park, Times Square, the Broadway theatre district and even the United Nations. The hotel is housed in a building built in 1926 and is in excellent condition. The room and bathroom were ...

free wireless worked great, and the breakfast spread was better than expected. Room was good sized by NY standards and comfortable no AC though, so you might want to reconsider if you're visiting during a heat wave. Staff was nice, too. Nothing outstandin...

A Hidden Treasure - user review
Had read previous reviews and thought I would give it a shot. The reviews did not lie. The hotel was clean and the room was large. The girl at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The only negative I have to offer is that they need more help in the lounge area. The bartender was also waitin...

Nice place - user review
Me and my cousin wanted to stay in the city for the weekend and somewhere that wasn't that expensive. I didn't have any bad experience with this place. You get a cool complementary breakfast and a bar is downstairs in the hotel. It was packed when we were heading out so I assume everyone was having ...

Pretty good - user review
Not as impressive on the outside with the construction and old Marquee, but great on the inside. Dining area and bar decor was creative and comforting. The New England decor rooms were cozy and roomy (the junior suite at least), and loved the 4 poster bed and classy, eclectic furniture. Some of the ...

Customer care a priority! - user review
Roger Smith hotel was a friendly escape right on Lexington Avenue! With each room being furnished differently, we'd like to go back and check out a few more. All the personnel were welcoming, helpful and seemed to enjoy working for the hotel. Information was given with no worries about having to tak...

Great location, good value for the money - user review
Service is fast and friendly there was a line at check in but it went super fast. The rooms are nice...down comforters and spa towels but the building is old so the plumbing is not perfect. Great access to public transit or midtown shopping. A little noisy, but that's the way it is in the city. Defi...

Great Location/Comfortable Room - user review
The location was perfect for a night out on the town. The hotel is directly above Latin Quarters and a couple blocks from 52nd and 2nd's strip of bars. The beds were really comfy, the bathroom could have been cleaner, and the room was a little noisy in the morning(5th floor) higher up would be more ...

Just fine! - user review
The only thing that was not good was that the elevators were not air conditioned in the middle of a heat wave. Otherwise, all was great for a last minute stay. I especially liked the convenience of the breakfast just off the lobby that was included with our stay each morning. The room was very comfo...

Very happy with this hotel. - user review
The Roger Smith is an older hotel but very well maintained. Has a European flavor to it. Thought the continental breakfast was great eat a big breakfast and you can skip lunch. Would have appreciated higher wattage in the light bulbs (impossible to read in bed) and greater water pressure in the show...

A Lot of Bang for the Buck - user review
This hotel packs a lot of bang for the buck. It is in a very good location. We walked all over the city from here. It is an older hotel but is well maintained and etremely affordable for NYC. The shower could have used more water pressure and the heat had to be controlled by opening the window but t...

Unexpected Find - user review
This was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in and I do a lot of traveling worldwide. Do not understand why it is not rated higher. The room was spacious and light and a lot of thought had gone into traveler's comfort. There was an abundance of lighting options and there was even a plant in t...

cute place - user review
We stayed in a suite, which was old fashioned but charming and spacious. It was a little noisy on the street outside at night for people who are light sleepers like myself and they apparently don't clean under the beds. But besides that, we thought it to be a good value for the price and it's in a g...

Good Hotel For The Price - user review
We thought this hotel was a good bargain. We had a small standard room with two double beds. The shower head wasn't working right, I reported it and it was fixed by the time we returned. We liked the free continental breakfast. I would recommend this hotel for people who want a room for the night an...

Roger needs a Rehab - user review
We were very disappointed with the condition of our room, and left after only one night. The service was not good. The hotel room was massive for NYC standards, with a kitchenette, but reminded me more of a college dorm than a hotel. The walls had peeling paint, linens on the bed were not too fresh,...

Well located, clean, comfortable. The continental breakfast was welcome in NYC, where eating out is expensive. Besides a noisy radiator, the only problem we had was a bathroom outlet that smoked the one time we used the hairdryer. When we reported it, the clerk said they would send someone up right ...
