1. However, the room I got happened to be able to receive the free wifi signal and hence, I manage to surf the internet from the comfort of my room.

2. Wifi is free but only in the foyer, bar and 1st floor lounge areas.

"EXCELLENT HOTEL IN EXCELLENT LOCATION - HIGHLY RECOMMEND " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/22/2012 Vote

3. The Starbucks downstair has free wifi which was really handy because The Empire charged $12.99 PER DEVICE for 24 hours of wifi and when I eventually caved in and paid for it, I only got 10 hours out of it before it expired.

4. Yes, the shower with one door is still strange, yes the standard rooms are very small, and yes you have to pay for WiFi but the convenient and lovely city location, fun over-the-top retro art-deco(?) design, Starbucks just steps one way and PJ Clarks the other way, this is a great choice for families, couples, and business.

5. I didn't pay much attention to remember little details like wifi or if there was a coffeemaker, (I do remember there wasn't a newspaper given to us, because the hotel we booked for the next night included it).

6. Free wifi in the lobby but you have to pay to use Internet in your room.

7. Before staying here we stayed at the Hampton Inn near the Empire State building which offered free breakfast, free wifi, and larger room for less money.

"Pretty disappointed and nicest thing was the lobby " Read full review on TripAdvisor 1/17/2012 Vote

8. We were told that we did not have Wifi because our hotel rate did not include free wifi.

9. There is a Starbucks on the corner as well as several stores where you can get sandwiches, coffee, drinks, etc.Since the rooms were small, and there was free Wifi in the lobby, I spent quite a few nights working on the Mezzanine level, and enjoyed it immensely.

"Gorgeous Boutique Hotel - Very, very small rooms " Read full review on TripAdvisor 12/17/2011 Vote

10. There is a plunge pool and free WIFI on one of the floors too which is very convenient.
