We waited another 10 minutes for the bill, and another 10 minutes for the card machine, safe to say we didn't visit the bar for the rest of the trip.

but we were also unpleasantly surprised by the nearly $100 in additional facility fees charged at check-out, including apparently compulsory charitable donations.

Further, I found out that my key card was deactivated - while I left the room with all my belongings still inside.

Just to note, there is a fee of $40 a day service charge which is not explained when checking in.

When we checked in, the front desk person did not explain to us that there is a $40 facility fee charge per day, nor explained the coverage of facility fee until we received the receipt by email after the stay.

We were presented with a final bill which had errors on it and then checked our bank and charges had been made which far exceeded the figure on the bill.

Underwhelming, poor service and overcharged.

Last night of our stay there ,  they suddenly canceled the key cards  to the room because they had forgotten to ask us for the credit card on the first day and with that way we were forced to pass through the reception.

However, when we came to pay the bill at the end of our trip they had charged us 100 dollars!!

In case you forgot anything or get hungry or thirsty a well stocked tray and fridge offer most anything you could ask for right in the room (for a charge) suitable for teens or adults.

but still part of the hotel)

One drawback since my return is that there is still a pending payment on my credit card.

but I’m not convinced as why would it be $100 charge for a task that takes 10 mins.

I had a minor billing issue that I called about after the trip and it was cleared up immediately.

Additionally we were charged for two bottles of water we did not consume.

- Room service ends at 9.30pm which is a shame
- You will be charged $40 tax per night on top of the room rate which I guess is standard

Furnishings, electronics, fixtures are all worn, and they charge you for literally everything.

A credit to Courtney and Lewis nothing was too much for them and after a long day of travelling it was refreshing to be so well looked after!

I paid the service charge begrudgingly as I’ve come across this before in Vegas

I would not recommend this hotel and am in the process of filing a better business bureau complaint and a complaint with my credit card about the excessive $300+ charge for pulling out the pull out couch which was not disclosed.

The bathroom also huge with separate shower and bath.

this hotel offers a great localisation to visit NY     Nice rooms with large bathroom with a good bath (not always the case in the US)    The swimming pool is amaizing on the roof top with a view on the Empire State Building.

We brought our luggage up to our room on the 8th floor and were thrilled to open the door to a massive room with king bed, sitting area and huge bathroom with soaker tub, separate standing shower and double vanity sinks.

Bed was comfortable and the bathroom had a large sink and a SOAKER TUB!!

My room was very comfortable with quality amenities, a spacious bedroom, desk, sitting area, plenty of closet space and the bathroom was spacious.

If you book the king suite there is a beautiful huge bathroom with a double sink and jacuzzi tub!

The bathroom vanity was large enough for all our toiletries.

!😊👍😊
With the first steps of being greeted by Nina, with her friendly greeting & her sunny smile, to the cleanliness & wonderful size of the rooms , not to mention they ACTUALLY have bathtubs  & spacious bathrooms.

The staff was very friendly, the hotel room looked amazing and the tub was spacious.

Pros: Accommodating + Professional Staff, Amazing Location, Spacious + clean rooms, Comfortable bed, Large bathroom, decent water pressure, wrap around balcony with partial view.

I booked a deluxe king which was very spacious and provided a nice seating area and large bathroom.

The bathroom featured a huge trough style sink a large bath with a shower built into the wall above the bath controlled by the mixer tap, the shower was powerful, warm and ery welcome after a day walking around New York.

The rooms are large and comfortable, and the upstairs lounge is swank and comfortable.

We were pleasantly surprised by the size of our room and the large marble bathroom.

I intend to use this hotel every time I return to New York. The rooms were large enough for sure, and the emeritierst (pool, rooftop bar etc.)

The room was very large, especially by NYC standards.

These rooms are large for NYC with nice bathrooms and good light.

Other details of the hotel:  beautifully appointed and well equipped LARGE rooms make this hotel comfortable for longer stays.

I’m from New York and this hotel was a pleasant surprise - lovely staff, large rooms (especially for New York!

Wonderful property, convenient, clean, large rooms, excellent restaurant, wonderful staff, and very reasonable in cost.

The rooms are big and some have balconies.

Big rooms and extremely friendly staff (this is a big one for me)!

Great huge room with super nice bathroom.

The room was large for NYC, very comfortable and quiet.

The rooms are large and the bathrooms are great.

We had a great stay at the Royalton Park Avenue, the rooms were huge for NYC, the restaurant was great with a fabulous bar in the evening.

Very large & spacious room definitely very big by NYC standards.

She gave us an amazing room with a shower and bath, work desk, lounge area.

But what truly sets this hotel apart is the heated pool and lounge area.

We sat in the lounge area and had a drink.

Roof top pool was an amazing find coupled with the lounge and outside area to have drinks at night.

While the rooftop bar, spa and lounge areas are fabulous and filled with fabulous people, the service is nothing

The hotel has its own rooftop lounge and swimming pool if one chooses to dine in and get a nice view of the Empire State Building while up top.

rooftop pool with view of the empire state building and healthy green drink cocktails and top champagne choices.

The pool alone is the best thing in nyc so if that’s not enough try the rooftop bar my friends.

Etc etc which meant I felt safe the whole time. Roof pool is ace too :)

During our stay, hotel staff were really helpful, the rooftop bar and pool were a great addition, providing some relaxing downtime in between sightseeing and thr food and cocktails were great!

I really enjoyed my stay they offer the best rooms with the best views and terrace and rooftop pool with bar to have the best experience with friends or your partner for a great gateway night!

The pool is just as good as on the picture (with Empire State overlooking you, and the golden roof of the New York Life building seen on the other side.

We arrived early and hung by the pool, which was busy

It is in a great location, has generous size, well appointed rooms, and a roof top restaurant, lounge and pool.

Chose this hotel because of rooftop pool and we were not diss appointed.

The rooftop pool has a view of the Empire State building!

The hotel had a lovely rooftop pool and bar/lounge.

Close to a metro station so easy to reach   Lot of possibilities to eat around     A perfect stay to visit the city and enjoy during summer days a break at the swimming pool !

Room was clean and a great size for New York and having a back drop of the Empire State from the rooftop pool who could need anymore?

), great rooftop pool with views, good food at the pool, and close enough to things like Broadway without having to be in Times Square (which I recommend).

The rooftop pool is amazing – get up early on a sunny day and enjoy a latte on a lounger before it gets too busy.

On Park Avenue close to lots of attractions, bars, restaurants, parks, and subway stops; awesome rooftop pool and bar with a great view of the Empire St Bldg; clean and new, affordable; perfect place to stay for a long weekend!

Everything is great and the rooftop pool is great

The real highlight of this hotel is the staff - top to bottom, cleaning staff to front desk to the serving staff at the rooftop pool.

Not to mention the rooftop pool and sun lounge with views of the Empire State Building.

We enjoyed the rooftop bar and food were great, it was fun to have a rooftop pool too.

When we went up to the rooftop pool (clearly the best reason to stay here), food littered the floor of the bar and the bathroom was flooded.

Great value for money, amazing rooftop and pool.

The rooms are nicely appointed and the rooftop pool is a bonus!

The hotel room and rooftop pool were so beautiful.

The rooftop pool was a wonderful amenity that very few hotels in Manhattan have.

The roof top pool was amazing and very clean with a breathtaking view.

We loved the pool on the rooftop terrace as well as the gym (a bit small

It’s just two blocks away from Chelsea Market and is close to so many restaurants and bars.

Overall, a great place to stay given it's proximity to Chelsea Market - Thanks Dream Downtown for a great stay, will see you soon!

It's in a great spot near the Chelsea Market, restaurants, highline, great jumping off point for dining.

Location was great really close to chelsea market and subway stations.

and for its location near Chelsea Market and the great restaurants and cafes in the nearby areas.

Great views over New York and very close to Chelsea market and the High Line.

Wonderful hotel, excellent service, right place for fun in the city, vibrant atmosphere and close to Chelsea Market, CHRISTOPHER SCALI
Lead Concierge did a great job and organised a cool helicopter flight from White Plane into Manhattan

Just near Chelsea Market and the HighLine you can have many good time arround the hotel and the subway is just at one corner of the block.

The hotel is located right near Chelsea Market which is great for foodies, just a bit further up is the entry to the Highline and the subway is roughly 5 mins walk away.

Fifth- -the back elevator lobby  area smelled like sewer/dirty diaper/garbage through our whole 4 day stay here.

It is separate and you have to take a separate elevator that is guarded by a bouncer.

My worst complaint is waiting for an elevator for 10 minutes (because they were having a party on the Penthouse) they dedicated 1 of the only 3 elevators to the guests of the party.

The elevator doesn't work properly and you have to try your card 5 times to get to your floor.

The elevators are difficult to use - the card doesnt quite register your floor so you have to try a couple of times and if you miss it, you either end up going in the other direction (not just me

-: The elevator was operated by a key and was really finicky.

There is a nightclub within the hotel and at a certain hour it becomes more important to get the nightclubbers up on the elevators than the clients.

The elevators need a keycard and don't always read them properly, the sink has a strange faucet that just doesn't make sense, the TV channels were impossible to decipher so you had to play roulette to try and find a channel - sometimes you go back and the channel had disappeared, sometimes you go round and there were channels that weren't there last time. .

although it was a little entertaining to see the line-up for the elevator to the club upstairs.

Just got a little lost trying to find it down the elevator. LOL.

We were back in town for the first time ever as ex-New Yorkers, and our rooms were near (but did not back up on) the elevator on the 8th floor.

Let me start off by saying that I was a bit concerned because of the mixed reviews recently left here; complaints of noise from the parties being heard from the rooms, elevators smelling like weed, and bad service from staff.

Ignoring for a moment that the north elevator bank always smells like sewage, there was an even worse experience with smells in my room.

No hotel or front desk employees say hello when you walk through the doors, club bouncers waiting at main elevators to let people up into club frown at you as you try to get to your room (the elevators are shared/next to each other).

The hotel lobby is turned into a nightclub and all the seating is reserved, the use of the elevator was confined to one out of three and when we ventured to the roof top for a drink we were met with boredom and disdain by the security and bar staff.- the area was empty

Speaking of elevators, there are several and we never had more than a minute or two to wait.

The hotel also has a cute lounge area and a gym.

The lobby had a modern decor and a bar lounge area to chill.

Lots of restaurants, and lounge areas which were very convenient, also had great food.

Btw, the holiday decorations in the lounge area are worth checking out, and if you like margaritas you must try the Bodega Margarita!

The lobby is big and has a beautiful lounge area (just mind the mild smell of urine).

The solution was the Dream Hotel in the Chelsea/Meatpacking district of New York.

It was an easy walk to Chelsea Market, The Little Island, The High Line, The Vessel, Greenwich Village & Meatpacking District, etc.

Chelsea Market at the end of the street, easy access to Meatpacking district, Greenwich village.

By far the best value in the Meatpacking district, and Chelsea too.

Great spot for the younger crowd that enjoy nightlife, since it is right in the heart of meatpacking district.

I recently stayed at the Dream Downtown (Meatpacking District), and could not have been happier.

The location in the meatpacking district is great, and very convenient to subways.

Location: Loved the location in the meatpacking district.

We lived in NYC for 17 years, we heard about it alongside the Gansevoort Hotel and others in the meatpacking district.

Good hotel in a nice area - Meatpacking District NYC near many popular eating spots and the High Line.

The hotel is located in the heart of the Meatpacking District and across from Apple Store, Starbucks and Restoration Hardware.

as a “posh” hotel in the Meatpacking District.

This hotel is right in the heart of the meatpacking district, with many amenities to chose from in such short notice I was able to contact concierge Joseph Sabatelli, and in no time he was able to reserve one of the rarest last minute reservations to Carbone.

The Dream Downtown was perfect for my friends and I in the middle of the Meatpacking District in NYC.

The Meatpacking district is really great and only 15 minutes from the biggest places of Manhattan.

Love coming to the Dream and the meatpacking district.

Great weekend getaway in the Meatpacking District.

The location across the street from the Chelsea Marketplace at the crossroads of Chelsea and the Meatpacking District is its best asset.

One of my favourites is the meatpacking district and this is where Dream Downtown is located.

Common areas hopeless - because they close they pool they also close the only decent areas to hang out.

Pool area and courtyard not open to enjoy even just to sit.

The facilities of the hotel all seem to be operated as independent businesses - a couple of hundred dollars for a pool chair for the day is egregious at best.

The hotel has a lovely outdoor pool, which was terrific for guests in July who had spent the day touring the city.

I chose this hotel due to location, being close to part of the city we had not explored yet and because it had a pool.

but are able to sit by the pool & have a drink/food anyway.

The pool was nice and the roof top bar was not open when I stayed at this location.

The hotel lobby is very nice and the pool is interesting.

I didn't use the pool or club so can't speak to that.

The location is great the pool looks great.

The lobby is really beautiful with the bottom of the pool right above letting sunlight in.

I’d love to return in the summer when the pool is open.

Don’t miss out on summer and the warmer months for the amazing pool experience.

The hotel itself is beautiful, I can’t wait to come back during the summer when the pool is open.

Miguel was an excellent host by the pool very accommodating.

While we didn't stay at the hotel overnight, we did purchase day passes to its gorgeous pool The Beach at Dream Downtown.

This is not the hotel for you if you are looking for quiet as there are lots of things going on from pool to club, etc.

Overall, it's a place to sleep. However for the price we pay and the lack of amenities(no great place to work outside of your room), privacy (thin walls, club entrance in the lobby, etc.)

We lost out on a very expensive meal due to the fridge not working.

If your idea of a great stay is paying $796.61 per night (that includes the seven types of taxes and fees for the city) and receiving very basic service, beds that are low to the floor and not comfortable in a tiny room equipped with a very expensive mini bar, then this is the place for you!

Generally, furniture and decor was outdated and felt cheap.

but not only didn't deliver on them, but charged for club access and downgraded the room (for the same price).

You could only sit by the pool until 10.30am then after that you had to pay up to $300 to sit on a lounger so if you didn’t you had to sit on the floor whilst ‘reserved’ loungers stayed empty all day.

I was then told that I would be eligible (a) move to another room (I had already paid for a pool access one and their offer didn't include this) or (b) change hotels and be refunded for the remainder of my stay.

The color of our wristbands were different than those who reserved and paid for chairs, that's how they could tell.

but no one answers..Wish I would’ve paid more attention to reviews.

Hidden fees ( 50 S for facility fee with its corresponding occupancy facility fee and its taxes) so do not believe the price per night announced it goes up by 100$ with these extras and nyc taxes .

but you have to pay for a chair and again some bouncer is able to charge you whatever he feels and there is a line for this also.

Watch out for the 'facilities fee' charge at $50 per day of stay plus taxes.

Would strongly suggest avoiding that floor at all cost, not worth the frustration.

Pretty disappointed with my stay - expensive room, and they couldn't even include bar soap in the room, I had to buy my own at CVS.

For the exhorbitant price that I paid for the room, this was not the type of service I expected.

but only if I had to be in that area and received a better rate.

Loud music day and night, i paid $600 a night and couldn't get a wink of sleep as the bed was trembling from the bass.

Night 3 we beared through the pounding as we didn't need to wake up so early,

You hear the music & vibrating bass all night & some of the of the hotel goers come home from whatever bar/club & talk loudly down the hallways going back to their room.

However, the music was still loud enough to keep us awake (mainly the bass frequencies).

The noise insulation was not good especially for a hotel with a nightclub attached.

The rooms have basically no noise isolation.

And I could not hear the PA announcements in my room.

The fans were high up near the ceiling, so there wasn't a constant draft of air.

The "next morning" I was awoken after finally falling asleep as per usual for this stay at 5am when the crowd below calmed down.

Was on the 9th floor and ear plugs and white noise from phone was not enough to keep to sound of the base  beating.

The sound from the TV oddly plays in the bathroom???

The biggest complaint is from the dance club noise which started around 9:00pm and didn't stop until 4:00am.

the noise is so bad it kept me awake all my last night and I was only on the 8th floor.

If you want to get zero sleep because of noise from the hotel nightclub (think pounding base vibrating through the bedroom) then this is the place for you.

This is hotel is too loud, too many people walking through the hallways, and you can 
hear the partying.

but have never experienced noise like this in my life.

But the walls are so thin I could hear the room next to me at 3 AM each night.

I traveled with a noisemaker and earplugs; which did not help!!

The location is amazing right by Chelsea market, the  High line and my fave in the city - Little Island.

robe provided, minibar and iron in the room 
nice courtesy set and netflix in the room 
strategic position close to chelsea market and the high line 
subway just a few blocks away 

Friendly and helpful staff with special mention to Keenan Davis
If we have the chance we will definetly be back again.

And of course….. walk on the High Line!

The location —near Chelsea market and The High Line, can’t be beat.

Great Chelsea location (2 blocks from the High Line and West Side Highway/Hudson River, around the corner from Chelsea Market, 2 blocks from the subway (A,C,E,1,2 lines), surrounded by fun bars/restaurants), clean/trendy rooms, pretty (heated) pool on the 2nd floor (with real sand under some of the lounge chairs-fun touch!

The hotel is conveniently located next to Chelsea Market and the High Line.

Also the location - right in the middle of the Meat Packing district and only a couple of minutes walk from the High Line and 14th Street metro stop - where you can take the metro out to JFK

Downsides?

The High Line (walk), Central Park (subway), Empire State (subway), Terra Blues (subway), The Rubin Museum (walk), The Met (subway), David Geffen Hall (subway), and paralyzing amounts of delicious food (walking or subway).

Great restaurants, walk to the high line.

This is such a great hotel to visit when in the Chelsea / Meatpacking area   You’re right across from Chelsea Markets and a few blocks from great restaurants and the High Line    You also get access to PhD rooftop bar which is worth the stay alone   Great staff here as well   I’ve been here 4x already and look forward to my next stay

Next to Chelsea Market and The High Line walking park, you really can't miss staying here if you have the cash flow.
