    rasroxo3367 from Brazil stayed here on 29th July 2007
    It would be a good idea to spray the hostel or something. There were tons of cockroaches all around the room.. climbing our luggage, the walls, etc.. it was not comfortable to try to kill them everyday. Everything else was pretty good! Congratulations to the breakfast!

    Nivethika from Australia stayed here on 26th July 2007
    the staff were unavailable most of the time, some didnt even speak english which is inappropriate when running a hostel. it is completely overpriced for the lack of facilities it offers. the only good thing about this hostel was the breakfast. thoroughly disappointed. cockroaches everywhere.

    vegas4112 from Sweden stayed here on 08th July 2007
    It was nice, though the triple beds had a very bad mattress below, but we got some sleep finally. I wouldnt recommend this if you're allerigc cause there seemed to be some mold in the roof of our room. Otherwise it was nice, the cockroaches was friendly.. no really there was none, just a small bug in the room.. :)   Read Owner Comments

    Tomas from Czech Republic stayed here on 20th June 2007
    Great location, friendly personnel. Slightly flaken off, mold in bathroom, but very clean otherwise.

    Monique from Belgium stayed here on 24th June 2007
    I missed the contact with other people and the reason is that there is no place where you can meet the others. In the evening when you come home you are oblied to stay in your room.

    ren_2001 from England stayed here on 15th June 2007
    This is a lovely hostel, however for those travelling on their own and wanting to meet fellow travellers to go out with and party in NYC, then this isn't the place to come. The common area (i.e. kitchen) is small, and a number of the rooms are occupied by families and long term residents, so the traveller atmosphere is lost.

    Property Description

    The Newly Renovated Hotel 17 is a chic budget hotel conveniently located in Downtown New York near the East Village, Gramercy Park, Greenwich Village, and Washington Square Park.

    A few years ago Woody Allen filmed his movie Manhattan Murder Mystery at Hotel 17. Madonna has stayed here, as well as many other celebrity artists, models, and actresses.

    Accommodations in our safe and friendly hotel are perfect for tourists, students, and international travelers on a budget.

    East Village:The East Village is perhaps the 'Social Mecca' of New York City. Much different than Greenwich Village, the East Village offers a more grungy, rock and roll type atmosphere.

    The East Village is home to many major acts of the past such as The Ramones, Lou Reed, The Velvet Underground, as well as many punk bands that still continue to play on. The Fillmore may not be alive anymore, but there are a lot of great clubs such as Coney Island High, CBGB'S, and Irving Plaza. (which is only 3 blocks from Hotel 17)

    NOTE: THE RATE DOES NOT INCLUDE CITY/STATE TAX
    TAX RATE $13.63% PLUS $2 OCC TAX WILL
    APPLY TO THE RATE UPON CHECK IN.

    marquis_joan4051 from England stayed here on 29th July 2007
    We really couldn't fault The Wolcott. A truly perfect position to be, right in the middle of whichever part of Manhatten we wanted to access.It's no frills,but everything you might need. We found it very comfortable.The price is very good. Staff were helpful, coffee/tea and muffin for breakfast........ everything we wanted for a very pleasant few days away.    


    vesnazajc4346 from Slovenia stayed here on 29th July 2007
    I will NEVER book through Hostelworld again, as u r the only page that charges 10% deposit and mislead customers that this is deposit for the accomodation instead as money paid directly to u. And believe me that i will tell it to everyone i know. Vesna    


    lxsaldivia2442 from Chile stayed here on 12th June 2007
    First I will like to comment here our experience with Hostelworld, as this is the first opportunity to write to "somebody". When we wanted to recornfirm our hotel reservations, done a month before, the day before of our arrival, the answer from the hotel was they have not received them and they were sold out for the next day, so we should contact Hostelworld in order to receive a solution. The res.nbr. corresponds to Hostelworld and not Wolcott Hotel. We could not find any number or customer service in the web page that we can ask, so we call again the hotel and finally they made us a new reservation. Upon our arrival they say that the reservation request arrived that morning, VERY STRESSFUL. The hotel was OK according with our expectations. Our only comment can be we had a noisy first night, with door slams, loud voices, etc. But after we change room and floor, everyting was OK. The hallway of the 8th floor had a very bad smell, seems like somebody cooks in one of the rooms.    


    Paul from England stayed here on 13th May 2007
    Great place to stay.    


    Paul from England stayed here on 26th May 2007
    Would stay here anytime.    


    richscrim from Scotland stayed here on 11th April 2007
    Showers didn't work very well; changed temperature a lot.    


    michaeliaolfert679 from Canada stayed here on 31st March 2007
    The location is excellent. 5 minute walk to Penn Station. The hotel appeared really clean.Our room was perfect, no problems with anything. Staff were excellent. Would stay there again and would recommend this hotel to a friend.    


    gmurraycavanagh913 from Ireland stayed here on 22nd March 2007
    Really great location and the most reasonably priced hotel by far. I would most definitely reccommend the Wolcott!
