Fantastic stay

My family and I had a great stay here! Fantastic location in the Upper West Side, which we decided was the best neighborhood in the city, especially with it's close location to Central Park. Everyone at this hotel was friendly and helpful. The room was very clean. If I'm back in New York, I will happily stay here again.
Maria, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent

The Lucerne is a simple, clean, and quietly elegant hotel. I have stayed there multiple times, in different rooms, and am always happy with the experience. No major frills or entertainments, just a good hotel on the UWS.
Zachary, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Pleasantly surprised. Excellent and friendly staff from the doorman, front desk and housekeeping. Room was very clean and comfortable and the neighborhood is perfect. Breakfast at the restaurant downstairs was a nice plus. This will be my permanent go to when I'm visiting NY.

Our go-to hotel in NYC

We loved our stay at The Lucerne, which is our go-to hotel when we visit our son in New York. Three rooms are comfortable and clean, it’s in a great location close to Central Park and many great restaurants. The super a comfortable ride for a reasonable price n back to the airport.

Great NYC hotel

This is a charming and well-run hotel in a dream location. The adjoining NIce Matin restaurant is really excellent. Hotel Staff is attentive and warm. On this occasion We waited four hours to get access to our room on a busy summer Saturday, which we have not experienced before. Otherwise, all good.

Too expensive

The hotel rooms feel dated; I'd be fine if the rates were not sky-high.
James, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My new fav in nyc. Location is great for visiting museum mile with crosstown bus stop steps from the front door and the subway in the next block to travel up or downtown, or to and from Penn Station. Excellent restaurant Nice Matin on site and a 15% discount for breakfast and afternoon Apero (happy hr) featuring generous complimentary hors d'oeuvres.

Nicholas, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Lucerne is near a lot of restaurants, bakeries, convenience stores, etc. It is also about a 20-30 minute walk to Lincoln center depending on how fast you walk. It is located on the Upper West Side which is more like a neighborhood as opposed to the touristy midtown.
