Recent Hotel Chandler Review: "If you want a very clean, comfortable, quiet place that's out of the Times Square tourist hub bub, then Hotel Chandler is an excellent choice -- particularly if you can get a reduced price. The staff, from maids to doormen, are personable, friendly and helpful. They don't have a concierge, but front desk personnel offers a list of top-rated restaurants within walking distance and will book reservations for you. Off the lobby there is a free 24-hour coffee bar, and small living room with comfortable seating around a fire place, and a communal computer with free internet connection. The rooms are small, and closet space is limited to 1 or 2 small wardrobe units, depending on what room you receive. The queen beds are comfortable and furnished with down-filled duvets and 5 pillows. The showers have a rain head, so if you want to keep your hair dry you'll need to use one of the complimentary shower caps. The room also includes a desk, mini-bar and complimentary daily NY Times. Hotel guests seem to arise and leave their rooms between 8 and 9. Sleeping later requires blocking out the noise of slamming doors and talk in the hall (earplugsr). The thing most overheard was friendly hellos from customers to the hotel staff. The later in the morning I waited to get ready the less hot water I had...it was never cold, but not the stinging, steamy, skin-scalding hot I prefer. At night time I never experienced an absence of very hot water. The hotel serves a breakfast buffet of coffee, juice, fruit, yogurt, cereal, eggs, pastries, and bacon for $16. If you're watching your pennies, you'll better to go around the corner to Miss K's where a bagel with cream cheese is $1.75 and a full buffet is $7. Our party of 4 varied in age from 82 to 7 years. We all agreed, when returning to NY, we would stay at Hotel Chandler again."

Overview
In a city where everything is larger than life, the Hotel Chandler sets out to prove that bigger isn't always better. This charming, 121-room boutique hotel is outfitted with the comforts of home in New York City’s historic Murray Hill neighborhood. Just off Fifth Avenue on the southern edge of Midtown Manhattan, the Chandler is within 2 blocks of the Empire State Building. Penn Station is also only 2 blocks away; from there you can hop on multiple subway lines to destinations throughout the city, or on railway lines that extend up and down the Northeast Corridor.

If your feet need pampering after a day out on the town, take advantage of the hotel’s discount at Oasis Day Spa, only 2 blocks away, and enjoy a bit of reflexology or a mani-pedi. Then head back to the Chandler for a glass of vino during Bar 12:31’s self-described "Recession Proof" happy hour, where drinks start at $3. You can relax at the bar or at the hotel's library, which contains a 40-in flat-panel TV, books, and games. Complimentary tea and coffee are at your disposal throughout the day, and 24-hour valet parking and concierge services are available for an additional fee.

In the morning, rise and shine with a buffet breakfast in the hotel lobby, or order room service from the comfort of bed, which is ensconced in Frette linens and a fluffy duvet. The elegantly designed rooms and suites feature black-and-white photos of New York City, and include complimentary wired and wireless Internet access. Other standard in-room amenities include ergonomic chairs with work desks, iPod docks, and pay-per-view movies.

Expert Tip
Freebees in New York may be rare, but one is right at the Chandler Hotel. The hotel provides a complimentary wine and cheese hour, amusingly called the Chandler Chin Chin, Monday through Thursdays.

    A short guide to Midtown

    Some of NYC’s best-known landmarks are north of 14th and south of 59th—or Midtown Manhattan. Here, couples kiss atop the Empire State Building. Grand Central Station’s opal-faced clock is a famed meeting spot. While fortunes are made on Wall Street, fortunes are spent at Fifth Avenue’s shops. Other highlights include Madison Square Garden, the United Nations, and the Garment and Diamond districts.

    Recreation

    An early morning workout gets the day started right. Bounce into the Chandler’s fitness center and wake up those muscles with treadmills, bikes, step machines, and free weights. Afterward, the Finnish sauna is there to help you sweat out any remaining toxins.
