Our stay at the Martinique was OK. Location was pretty good.
Would I return? No, there are much better hotels in NYC.
We arrived for 3 days at the start of a US road trip. The first disappointment was that when we opened the curtains in our room, all we had was scaffolding and plastic sheeting so for our 3 night stay, we had to keep the curtains closed.
The room with 2 queen beds was clean but very compact.
Breakfast on day 1 was dreadful. We ordered 4 breakfasts; the least complicated being eggs on toast with a side of bacon and salmon and cream cheese bagel. The bagel came with no cream cheese, the eggs came with no toast. We queried this and it was like we were asking for the earth. The server was awful, suggesting she just gets extra toast (by which time the eggs would be cold) eventually asked to speak to the manager who agreed we hadn't received our order. She was good enough to clear our bill and we left without having eaten and chose to go elsewhere for the other mornings.
On our departure day, the lady at reception was very rude and we left with a really poor overall view of the hotel. Needless to say, when we returned to NYC for our flight home, we chose to stay elsewhere.
