Beacon Hotel and room service???

Hi there,

thinking of booking the Beacon Hotel for our honeymoon and love the idea of having a suite with a kitchen, but does anyone know if they have room service. Web site says it has a 24hr restaurant, but not sure.

thanks in advance

Beacon Hotel and room service???

Hi Melelse

We are also thinking of staying at the Beacon Hotel. We are coming to NY at Christmas and had heard from a friend that it was in a good location and had good facilities. They didn%26#39;t use the restaurant but there is a fantastic food market over the road. You can see it on the trip advisor review page for the hotel in the cadid traveller photos.

Best wishes for your holiday

Beacon Hotel and room service???

Thanks for the heads up. I rang the Hotel and they said that the Hotel is open until 1am and that they deliver to the room, but that it is seperate to the Hotel, despite being in the same building.. seems fine. Thanks again

I don%26#39;t know about room service at the Beacon. They don%26#39;t really have a restaurant. There%26#39;s a coffee shop next door that%26#39;s open 24/7. I don%26#39;t know if they deliver upstairs but I%26#39;d guess yes. There are plenty of restaurants in the area that would deliver though, but the Beacon is not a very fancy place. If you%26#39;re looking for more luxury and room service, this may not be the place for you.

The only hotels I can think of that have kitchens in the room and also would have room service are most of the Affinia.com hotels and those that have it may not have it 24 hrs./day.

I don%26#39;t know what the rooms look like, but I know it%26#39;s not a luxury hotel. But having the incredible Fairway Market across the street is a bonus. They%26#39;ve got all kinds of great prepared foods that you can pop in the microwave at the hotel. Citarella%26#39;s, which is next door to Fairway, is excellet for prepared seafood and other dishes too, it%26#39;s just twice as expensive as Fairway.

We stay at the Beacon every year and love it since we have several family members all meeting for the U.S. Open. It%26#39;s a great place for families and we love the location. Don%26#39;t know if I%26#39;d use it as a honeymoon hotel, although the price is right and the location cannot be beat I wouldn%26#39;t put it in the romantic category. The small restaurant downstairs does deliver to the hotel along with many area restaurants. Fairway across the street is great and Zabars and a wonderful bagel shop (H%26amp;H?) are a couple of blocks away. I have trip reports posted from last year%26#39;s trip and there is a lot of UWS info (prices, restaurants in the area, etc.) and pictures in the area and from our room.

I agree with what%26#39;s been said. Good, convenient, well situated, good for families, usually well priced, but not what I%26#39;d think of as a honeymoon hotel.

have stayed in a Beacon Suite and it is ok for a decent but a bit shabby place near Central Park and Upper West Side, but not a place for honeymoon (using the kitchen on your honeymoon??). The adjacent restaurant is very good and does deliver but there are many nice places for all meals easily walkable. If all you need is a mini-kitchen (microwave, frig, toaster, etc), there%26#39;s lots of nicer places

Consider The Blakely instead. This is a more upscale hotel, but they have kitchenettes in the rooms. (No stove, but microwave, fridge and coffeemaker.) They also have an Italian restaurant called Abboccato on site which provides room service. Good location near but not on top of Times Square and also close to Central Park.
