Frederick was my server and made the dining experience amazing! He was very helpful in suggestions on the menu due to my dietary restrictions. I plan to request his section every time I come! The food was great and highly recommend the apple spice gelato.

The SOPHY never misses. Rooms were extremely clean and staff was very friendly and kind. Sam is the man at check in/check out. Perfect location in the heart of 53rd and every restaurant and convenience store is extremely accessible. 10/10 Stay!

"Exceeded expectations"

This is a beautiful property! Rarely does a hotel exceed my expectations… more often the property is a disappointment. The room was very clean and well maintained. Had all the expected amenities and much more. We ate several meals in the restaurant, enjoyed the bar area several times and it was all fantastic! We hated to leave and would definitely stay here again. We’ve already recommended it to friends who will be in the area soon.

The hotel was clean and vibrant. The fireplace was stunning and the mocktail was excellent at the end of the day The bed was a bit soft but the alternative is worse. Staff took care of all our needs, bringing us a microwave to the room when needed. I highly recommend the area.
