Excellent stay in a great location

Excellent stay. In a great location and surprisingly quiet given its midtown. Staff were super friendly. Room was modern and had everything we needed. Only downside was that there was no safe in the room.

If you can stay in a room that has a kitchen you can save a lot of money by using the nearby supermarkets and preparing your own meals. Great location.

Space to relax in comfort

NYC is known for expensive small rooms but The William was positively palatial. Having a kitchen kept food costs down and view with sunshine in the morning a lovely way to get up to explore the city. No tourist surcharge! No extra hidden costs. Everything we could need and great service if we needed. Downstair Shakespeare bar a safe haven for drinks and food. We stayed a week and could not fault it.

One has to get one's mind around the fact that the lobby is also the entry area to a very chic speakeasy. We are not bothered by that because my husband thinks that the bartenders make excellent martinis. The neighborhood is very convenient. Our room was spacious, chic and immaculate. But no bathrobes, no umbrellas and no MSNBC. Whatever.

Worst NYC Sonder - Do Not Book Here

I had to leave this hotel because the penthouse suite I booked had no tv working and no heat. Sonder fixed this and I went to another property of theirs. Do not book this hotel, however. There is a small elevator. Loud restaurant. Tons of stairs.

So much space!!!

The William was great! I thought the contactless check in would be strange, but was actually super convenient. Our room was huge, especially for nyc! Fully appointed kitchen with 2 burners, full cookware and dishes, mini fridge, microwave, sink and coffee machine was amazing! We cooked our own breakfast every morning. Bed was comfy and smart TVs worked great. Shower drained really slow, that was the only negative. Loved the overall boutique feel of the hotel. Location was walkable to several different subway stations, grocery, coffee. Just loved our stay!

It was great. I strongly suggest getting the kitchenette. We were able to cook and relax. Tv didn’t work in one room but we didn’t watch enough anyway. Bar downstairs and the bar further downstairs seemed cool but we didn’t go. If you go stay here tell them I said hello!

Great location and spacious rooms

Really good location about 5 minutes walk from the Grand Central Terminal. Safe neighbourhood. Perfect if you arrive from JFK with the Air Train to Jamaica and then the Long Island Rail Road to Grand Central. Rooms really spacious by NYC standards and clean. Be aware of the fact that this is not a full service hotel and that the front desk is not open 24/7. However, the entry codes work very well and the staff is really friendly. In case you have some disability then it might be problematic to get in when the front desk is not open - the stairs from the street to the entrance are quite steep.

This is not your traditional hotel. They have no amenities and the room is just a bed, small fridge, and bathroom. There are no nightstands or dressers for clothing. The tv is a Roku device so you have to use your own streaming service if you care to watch TV.
