Reviews of Merrion Row Hotel and Public House 4 stars

Great location near Times Square, The Rock, without all the noise. Breakfast was good - $25/day off helped. Room was good except for noisy neighbor. Would be nice to have a fridge and/or microwave in the room. Most of the staff very nice, check-out staff not really into her job

Didn't like the surprise $150 fee upfront - I hope it is refundable - it wasn't described. Lack of fridge/coffee in room

Great staff. food excellent AC worked great. Manager was charming and professional a true asset to the property. The waiter Sebastian , was attentive and very nice Vet easy going making us feel welcome.

It wasn't that i didn't like it but the wall was adjourning a restaurant next door a little noisy at night. The room was compact. I am not sure if that is the norm for a boutique hotel in the city.

It’s really convenient in terms of the location. Super close to time square and all the spots! Foods are awesome, too.

The room space is kind of tight. I wish they can provide self laundry service and get improvements on the sound proof from room to room.

It's a perfect location. We walked everywhere and it's 2 mins to times square but far enough away from the madness. Staff were very helpful and lovely to chat with. The room was a good size. Beds were very comfortable and the bathroom large.

The wardrobes were way too small and we ended up living out of the case for 5 days.

Beautiful, clean and high class. Small hotel but felt like home away from home. Lovely staff and excellent service. Jennifer in the pub was the BEST! Location was as wonderful as you could ask for. Adorable and comfy room.

Rooms are a bit small but that’s NYC.

Centrally located and very clean

Quite expensive and the bar closed at 9 each night. Although there was a linked bar next door (we found out later)

Bathrooms

Food - breakfast eggs were cold, toast was barely cooked. Pancakes tasted like they were out of packet

I liked the property but bedroom was rather small.

Just the small bedroom .

The whole hotel and rooms were like a home from home. Fabulous.

The location cannot be beat! 2 blocks from Times Square, 12 minutes from Empire State Bldg, we walked to both of our Broadway theaters. They are doing some construction on the street below so there is some noise, but being in the heart of NYC you can expect some- it wasn’t too bad. Generally it was quiet. There isn’t really a lobby- just a person sitting at a stand with a laptop. We were greeted with a smile when we arrived- very pleasant. Our room was on the second floor- we took the very small elevator up because our luggage was so large and heavy. Our room was a decent size for NY. We had a double room- the beds looked like Murphy beds with the stowage unit built into the wall. Regardless, they were both comfortable and we slept very well. The bathroom shower was incredible. It took a while to heat up but the pressure was fantastic. There wasn’t a vent in the bathroom so the stream from the shower was a bit overwhelming, had to open the bathroom door to let it cool off. AC worked great- no compliments, it was quiet so we didn’t have any noise with the unit. We did eat in the restaurant twice - the back dining room was very charming and the food was good.

Great Irish hospitality. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. Fittings and furnishings everywhere were beautiful. Beds and pillows were superb. Only 3 floors so a small hotel with good personal attention. Rooms cleaned and towels changed every day. Location for us was perfect. The hotel is next to Irish pubs and only 50 metres to Times Square. Subways were close by. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you Shona and staff, you all were so lovely.

The only small points to mention for us were no tea and coffee making facility in our room, which you normally take for granted. We could order at the bar but had to pay for it. Also, we only had a small, thin wardrobe next to the bed and a desk with a chair. Apart from hanging up a few items, we had to dress out of our suitcases. But otherwise, a really lovely hotel.

Staff were all very nice and friendly.
