Nice place

It’s a really nice place ! The room is very clean and confortable. There are many excursions just near to the hotel. At the welcome desk, some people aren’t friendly when you don’t speak English perfectly.

Great stay

Terrific location. The room was as warm and bright as in the pictures. Staff is helpful and friendly. This is why I prefer to stay in hotels with staffed reception desk.

Deborah, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

good but bring earplugs

The service and the location were great. Everything was clean, and the room had a good shower. My only complaint is how noisy the room was. The windows didn't stop any of the street noise, and the radiator was so noisy every time it went off.

The staff here at the Life Hotel were incredibly helpful and kind. The room itself was very nice as well.
Maggie, 4-night trip

I really enjoyed my stay. The location can’t be beat!
Sarah, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good value

This hidden gem is a few blocks from MSG and about 20 minutes walking to Times Square. The reception is in the back of a restaurant and one of two ancient elevators take you to a surprisingly modern, clean, elegant, and spacious room. A good value.
1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location. Nice size room. Great staff. If you are a light sleeper this may not be your stay. Gets lots of street noise. But I am not a light sleeper so it did not bother me.
Natta, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Overall a good experience! The room was beautiful and clean. The staff was very helpful and the overall location couldnt have been better. Will definitely stay here again.
Mariana, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great staff. Very small rooms but beds were comfy.
Kathryn Mary, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great place

because it is a historical hotel in the 1800s I was inclined to book it. To look at the architecture and how it was built. They've done a wonderful job remodeling it and it used to be the life magazine building in the early 1900s. The rooms are now updated clean delicious beds marble sink and floors gold hardware. Everything is very nicely done. The hotel is also close to everything on Broadway, sixth Avenue, fifth Avenue
