Very contactless and you pretty much have to download the hotel app to have a seamless stay. There is no room cleaning unless you request it and pay $35 for the service. Busy lobby bar but wasn’t intrusive for me. It was a pleasant stay, but very self-service.
NYC is known for expensive small rooms but The William was positively palatial. Having a kitchen kept food costs down and view with sunshine in the morning a lovely way to get up to explore the city. No tourist surcharge! No extra hidden costs. Everything we could need and great service if we needed. Downstair Shakespeare bar a safe haven for drinks and food. We stayed a week and could not fault it.
I would have given this hotel rating of five stars, but the night I visited, there was a very loud party on the first floor (I was on the 5th) that went well after midnight.
If you can stay in a room that has a kitchen you can save a lot of money by using the nearby supermarkets and preparing your own meals. Great location.
Enjoyed my stay at The Williams a lot. Quiet and clean. Staff very nice as well. First time staying here and will def stay again. Upper floor units are very nice and spacious with balcony and view. Location very convenient to Park Ave as well.
We loved the William! Staff was very cool and helpful. We loved the Raines Law room bar - great vibe and excellent cocktails. The hotel rooms are huge by NYC standards, and we were 20 minutes from anywhere we wanted to go. We will be back!
UNCOMFORTABLE AND UNSAFE
This is not truly a hotel- more like a high design hostel.
The bed was incredibly uncomfortable, the TV did not work and room and towels wreaked of bleach.
Most importantly, as a woman traveling alone for work this "hotel" is not safe. It does not have 24/7 staff and the entire first floor is a bar. There are no keys (you have to input all of your information, CC ad ID into an app - digital privacy is another topic) and are given an access code. Anyone with the access code can enter the hotel. There are no id swipes for the elevator so anyone at the bar can get to any floor of the hotel. The access code opens the room and there are NO interior physical locks. Given that there is no one at the front desk after 10pm.... it's not a safe place.
Not staying here again and would not recommend.
The William was great! I thought the contactless check in would be strange, but was actually super convenient. Our room was huge, especially for nyc! Fully appointed kitchen with 2 burners, full cookware and dishes, mini fridge, microwave, sink and coffee machine was amazing! We cooked our own breakfast every morning. Bed was comfy and smart TVs worked great. Shower drained really slow, that was the only negative. Loved the overall boutique feel of the hotel. Location was walkable to several different subway stations, grocery, coffee. Just loved our stay!
This was a last minute decision. New York hotels are very expensive. This place is less than half the price of hotels in New York. I definitely wasn't expecting a hotel. I believe this is a brownstone apartment that was converted once upon a time. It was done very well. But it definitely does not have the hotel feel. I think it would be hard to match that level. Having said that, it's very deserving of five stars. This is a great dollar value proposition. Great bang for your buck. I highly recommend.
It was great. I strongly suggest getting the kitchenette. We were able to cook and relax. Tv didn’t work in one room but we didn’t watch enough anyway. Bar downstairs and the bar further downstairs seemed cool but we didn’t go. If you go stay here tell them I said hello!
