9. I have seen some people comment that SOFITEL is expensive but worth it and although they are I will also add that if you look you can find dates where their prices are very reasonable and within the range or better than other midtown hotels.

10. Pros: Good water pressure and great hot water, very comfortable bed, very clean bathroom, very quiet room, good HVAC, good room service for dinnerNegs: Dishonest front desk, dated tacky decor (from the early 90s?), dirty appearance of rug in both roomsWill return to the London NYC next year, methinks.
