The Grand Hyatt New York at Grand Central has always been one of our favorite hotels in the Big Apple.
We've stayed there countless times over the years -- most recently just a few days ago.
We have so many fond memories of the Grand Hyatt, staying there with our children on many, many visits to Manhattan over the years. This was how we introduced our kids to the world's most exciting city -- through the doors of the Grand Hyatt and the adjacent eighth wonder of the world, Grand Central Station.
There are so many things to like about this hotel, we almost don't know where to begin.
The staff is excellent and everyone is always very friendly and helpful. Of course, the location -- right on 42nd Street and steps away from all the great shopping and other attractions on Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue -- is absolutely ideal. When we're in for the weekend, nearby St. Agnes Church ("the little church around the corner," as Bishop Fulton J. Sheen referred to it) is a must for Sunday Mass. And many rooms in the hotel have spectacular views of the iconic, nearby Chrysler Building.
The Grand Hyatt is aptly named because it truly is grand. A longtime legend on the New York scene, the hotel provides modern, sophisticated spaces that speak to both business and leisure travelers.
And the entire property has been updated in rich tones with both practical and dramatic touches.
Expansive and impressive, the open lobby sets the stage for a luxurious experience with an artful atmosphere. At the Grand Hyatt you can stretch out in oversized guest rooms and suites, each outfitted with luxurious bedding, amazing showers and comfortable, high-tech workstations. Every possible convenience has been built into the rooms.
We've shown photos of the lobby and our actual guest room above.
The Grand Hyatt is what you expect from New York -- and from Hyatt. It's big and spectacular yet cooly efficient and highly functional with warm, personal touches and a topnotch staff.
