    Overview

    "Mela" is Italian for "apple," and this modern Midtown boutique hotel is aptly named. Hotel Mela is in the center of the Big Apple, with the dazzle and excitement of Times Square, "The Crossroads of the World," just a half-block away. Dozens of big-name Broadway theaters are within 3 blocks. Rockefeller Center, the Top of the Rock observation deck, and Grand Central Terminal are among the many popular destinations within 4 blocks. But Hotel Mela isn't big and showy - it's a small, stylish oasis amid the city bustle.

    The hotel is known for its friendly, personalized service, with a dash of Italian charm. Be sure to take advantage of Hotel Mela's complimentary Your Desires guest program, featuring a dedicated Manager of Desires to customize your stay. Craving your favorite snack and beverage after a long flight? You've got it, and it's free. During your stay, your in-the-know Desires agent can help you make the most of New York City, assisting with dinner reservations, theater tickets, and insider tips just for you. You can enroll in this program at check-in or prior to arrival.

    Times Square and the Theater District abound in dining options to suit every taste and budget. The Saju Bistro at Hotel Mela earns rave reviews for its authentic French Provencal cuisine in a chic, casual setting. Head here before a night on Broadway, and the 3-course pre-theater menu will get you to the show on time.

    After a night on the town, sink into your comfy bed with pillowtop mattress, Egyptian cotton linens, and soft duvet. Wrap yourself in a 100-percent Turkish cotton terry robe and settle down to watch a late-night movie or your favorite HBO series on the 26-inch LCD TV. Wake up to your own tunes via the MP3 connection on the clock radio. Refresh yourself with H2O+ toiletries, formulated with sea-derived ingredients. Stylish, contemporary guestroom decor includes soothing earth tones and New York-themed artwork. A small green plant in each room adds a fresh, welcoming touch to help you feel more at home in Manhattan's "concrete jungle". Wireless Internet access is free throughout the hotel, and there is a 24-hour fitness center with complimentary sports drinks. All rooms are non-smoking, and fines apply for smoking in rooms. Pets are welcome for a fee.

    Hotel Mela Broadway - Times Square

    A short guide to Broadway - Times Square

    Let the West Coast have Hollywood; Broadway’s lights are just as bright, and many screen actors come to the Great White Way to gain acting credibility. Area attractions include Carnegie Hall, Rockefeller Center, Radio City Music Hall, and the Museum of Modern Art. Resplendent St. Patrick’s Cathedral takes up a block at Fifth and 50th. Once seedy, Times Square now hosts ABC, MTV, and NASDAQ.

    Our room the first night was smaller than a closet. The air conditioner was so loud and defective we could not sleep. The bed was standard size not queen size that was stated on my resevations. If this represents the quality of an Expedia 4 Star ranking I will book my hotels elsewhere in the future. This noteven a 2 star.

    Hotel had no hot water for more than 12 hours. Kept telling us it would be on in 10 minutes so we waited to get ready when after 90 minutes we were then told it was broken. We missed our first tour because of their evading the truth!! We were told we would receive a $100 credit for our inconvenience but never received it. We were on the 3rd floor and […] couldn't sleep due to music from a club down below. Read more

    This hotel was touted as a three or four star hotel on expedia. It's not even close. It's an old SRO rooming house that got a little face lift, but It's not designed to be a luxury hotel. The rooms are ridiculously tiny and depressing and the mini bar is designed so if you even move one of the items you get charged for it. Unsuccessful on all counts. […] Sorry. Read more

    THE WORST HOTEL IVE EVER STAYED IN!!!!! NOT A 4 STAR, MORE LIKE A 2 STAR!!! We arrived on 21st August for 4 nights on our honeymoon. The staff on the reception desk were extemely rude and there was a cue of people complaining about there room. We changed room 3 times in 24 hours!!!! All rooms were very small and to a very poor standard. The only room […] that was available was 2 single beds. So we had to sleep in seperate beds on our honeymoon!!!!!!!!! The hotel were not even slightly bothered!!! To sum up, DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY WITH THIS TERRIBLE HOTEL. Read more

    Un bruit insoutenable, malgré ma demande d'un chambre silencieuse, nous n'avons pas pu dormir que quelques heures par nuits et de façon intermittente. Outre les souffleries des climatisations, des bruits de camions, des portes qui claquent, aucune isolations exterieure comme interieure. Impossible de récuperer après une journée fatigante de visite. […] Nous avons fini notre séjour sur les rotules. Je ne retournerais pour rien au monde dans cet hotel, pourtant bien situé et propre. Le personnel de reception est très désagréable, par contre les reste du personnel est gentil et serviable. Par ailleurs on m'a facturé 37 euros de boissons alors que je n'avais rien consommé, même si l'erreur a été corrigée après discussion, ça ne me semble pas normal...Ont'ils essayé pour voir si ça marchait???Je ne sais pas mais c'est désagréable.

    Sono stata parecchie volte a New York, tutte in alberghi di buon livello. Questo è assolutamente, e senza paragone, il peggiore in cui sono stata. Si fa pagare per un quattro stelle ma non ne ha alcuna caratteristica. L'unica cosa di buono che ha è la posizione. Assolutamente da evitare.

    Hotellit NYC:ssä ovat tähtien osalla yliarvostettuja. Kannattaa kiinnittää huomioita erityisesti hotellin sijaintiin, sillä keskeisesti sijaitsevat hotellit ovt alttiita melulle ja muulle häiriölle. Huone oli kylmä ja vetoisa, lisäksi sisäpihan ilmastointikonehuone piti kovaa meteliä vuorokauden ympäriinsä. Ikkunan ilmanvaihto oli järjestety ilmaraolla, […] jossa ei ollut minkäänlaista melusiepparia, ts.käytännössä ikkunassa rako, josta ilmavirtasi suoraan huoneeseen tuoden metelin. Vanhoha hotelleja ei kannata käyttää ! Read more
