1. The National Restaurant is a little like a diner, with good food and lots of choices-no buffet though.

2. The location (Lex & 50th) is great, the rooms are big (mini-suites) which makes a change for NYC and the hotel restaurant is good.

3. We ate breakfast and dinner twice in the hotel's restaurant The National, which was excellent, the food was of a very high quality and there was a lively atmosphere in the restaurant, it was expensive but worth splashing out as we were on a special trip.

5. I rely on the concierge to arrange for everything, from a 5-hour Sunday private tour of New York, to reservations at the best restaurants and seats at the best tables in these restaurants.
