As business guests in New York City, we stayed at a hotel near a subway station for convenience. The room was compact but comfortable, with a small bar fridge and daily housekeeping. What we appreciated the most was the complimentary breakfast with a good selection of options and the helpful staff who kept the dining area clean. Overall, it was a satisfactory stay with a few minor noise issues. Would recommend for a short business trip.

Great location, easy access to Manhattan. Clean, comfortable rooms. Breakfast and 24/7 coffee/water a plus. Friendly staff. Nice rooftop views. Some noise from thin walls, but overall fantastic experience. On-site parking convenient. Minor suggestions for improvement mentioned, but would definitely stay again.

Lic is a gem! Impeccably clean, comfy bed, and welcoming staff. Enjoy a diverse breakfast selection and easy access to public transportation. Work-friendly environment with good internet. Laundry facilities and ice machines available.
Shower noise noticeable. Breakfast repetitive after 3 days.

Lic knows how to charm taste buds with their fish dishes—truly legendary! The extensive breakfast is a delightful surprise. Pre-check in perk and comfy king bed make you feel like royalty. Don't forget the laundry room for rainy day saves.

The LIC Hotel was a great choice for a short 7-night stay. The room was clean and comfortable, with daily towel changes and a powerful shower. The staff were friendly, breakfast was plentiful, and the rooftop terrace offered a stunning view of Manhattan. The only downside was the limited dining area space in the morning.

The whole experience was very nice. That place was contemporary including amazing staff and rooms. I liked having an iron, an electronic key card and a flat screen TV. I ate at a good restaurant with warm food.

My recent stay at this hotel was surprisingly pleasant. the housekeeping staff did an excellent job keeping the room clean and comfy. the in-room breakfast was pretty good, although I preferred grabbing a coffee and avocado sandwich at a nearby coffee shop. the breakfast at the hotel was decent, offering standard options to kick off your day. the location was superb, being very near to Manhattan and close to two subway lines that will take you wherever you need to go.

Great hotel for the price. Close to transportation, friendly staff, clean rooms, and decent breakfast available. Easy access to Manhattan via the nearby subway stations. The rooftop terrace boasts a stunning view of the city 🌆. Only downside is having to walk a bit to find good dining options. Overall, a solid choice for a stay in NYC!

The staff were super cool and the rooms were spacious and clean. The breakfast was lit, and the rooftop views were fire! Plus, the location was dope, just a quick subway ride away from Times Square and the Brooklyn Bridge. We loved chilling in our room, watching cable TV after exploring the city.
Would've been even better if there was a cool hangout spot or game room in the hotel for us to chill and have fun with other young peeps like us.

we had a fantastic stay at lic with a super comfy bed, top-notch security, and an amazing rooftop view. the room had all necessary amenities like water, toiletries, and a safe. It surpassed our expectations and was better than a Sheraton hotel. the location was excellent, close to two subway lines, making it easy to explore the city. the staff was friendly and the daily breakfast, though repetitive, was sufficient.

I chose Lic due to its close proximity to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. However, the parking facilities surprised me. The terrace with city views and complimentary full breakfast were delightful perks.

Stayed at Lic for 2 nights; best hotel experience. Next to subway, rooftop view, friendly staff. Firm bed, nice pillows, great water pressure, huge shower. Plentiful breakfast - bacon, eggs, cereal, bagels. Free coffee & water. Rooftop terrace offers great views. Near MOMA PS1, craft brew bars. Clean rooms, laundry facilities, good size. Good value, great location, free WiFi. Warm rooms, comfy beds. Nice places for meals nearby.

My stay here was comfortable with a laptop-friendly workspace and air conditioning. The nearby attractions were easily accessible, and I appreciated the 24-hour front desk. The daily full breakfast and rooftop terrace were enjoyable perks. The free WiFi and private parking added convenience to my visit. The complimentary toiletries in the private bathroom were a nice touch. a functional and pleasant experience that made my trip to the vibrant city even more enjoyable.

The proximity to the Metro station and the easy access to Manhattan were the highlights of my stay at this hotel. the rooms were spacious and clean, making it a comfortable place to relax after a day of exploring the city. However, the misleading room descriptions and lack of certain amenities were areas that could use improvement.

Located in an awesome neighborhood full of hidden gems, this hotel is a steal. The ferry stops alongside the subway make exploring a breeze, and the staff here is top-notch, seriously the best I've encountered in all my years of travel. The rooms are clean and spacious, with fantastic shower pressure, and parking is a total steal at just 20 bucks.

Located near several subway lines, with easy access to Midtown Manhattan and JFK airport. The hotel also has a fitness room and a terrace with good views. Rooms are clean and spacious, with basic but decent breakfast options.
Some rooms may be noisy due to nearby construction or busy streets.

The breakfast at this hotel was absolutely delicious and had a good variety of options to choose from. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and flavor of the scrambled eggs, bacon, and sausage. Another great aspect of this hotel was its location. It was just a minute's walk from the subway station, making it super convenient to explore all of New York's attractions. Additionally, the hotel was situated in a quiet area, which was perfect for a peaceful stay.
One minor drawback was that the breakfast options were the same every day. However, since I was only staying for a few days, it wasn't a huge issue for me.

The hotel pleasantly surprised us with its cleanliness, great location near subway lines, and fantastic breakfast spread. The rooftop terrace offered stunning views of Manhattan. Though street noise can be a minor issue, the overall value for money and helpful staff made our stay enjoyable. Will definitely return when in the city.

We had a fantastic stay at Lic Hotel. the breakfast was plentiful and efficiently served, with a never ending supply of bacon, scrambled eggs, and sausages. the bacon and eggs were perfectly fine, while the rest of the food, including cereal, bagels, and toast. the hotel's rooftop terrace offered great views, and we enjoyed walking to the nearby East River for one of the most iconic views in Manhattan. the hotel's location in an area with light industry and various traders gave it an authentic vibe. the staff, especially the beautiful young ladies at the front desk, were incredibly helpful and customer service oriented. the room itself was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with everything in working order.
Everything was fantastic! 😊

During my Christmas stay, I enjoyed the fact that the hotel offered a simple yet included breakfast, which helped save some money in the pricey city. the location of the hotel was quite convenient, being close to the subway and within easy reach of both the airport and Manhattan. Finally, I really enjoyed the rooftop terrace, where I could relax and take in the beautiful views of the city skyline.
I was disappointed with the room provided. It was noisy, especially being located on the ground level, and it got uncomfortably warm at times.

The LIC Hotel in New York was a perfect choice for my stay with my 4-year-old daughters. The location was ideal, with easy access to Manhattan via the nearby subway. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the breakfast selection was great.

The rooftop terrace was an absolute gem. As I sipped my morning coffee, the stunning city views felt like a scene straight out of a movie. The morning breeze and the buzz of the city below made for a picturesque start to the day.
Minor cleanliness issues.

lic is a well-connected gem with clean - spacious rooms and a generous breakfast. it's close to subway stations and a supermarket - making it super convenient. the rooftop view is even better in person, and the staff are exceptionally polite and helpful. the "on-demand" channels were a major plus, and the early check-in was a wonderful surprise.

This hotel is conveniently located close to several subway lines, making it incredibly easy to explore the city. It is also not far from the center, allowing you to quickly reach all the major attractions. The staff here is attentive and the rooms are well-appointed, with comfortable beds and great water pressure in the showers. Additionally, the breakfast offered is simple but satisfying, with a selection that includes a tasty jam.
The only downside, if I have to mention one, is that there could be more variety in the breakfast options.

I recently stayed at a great hotel in a convenient location for my visit to the city. The hotel was close to multiple subway lines and had plenty of nearby restaurants, a supermarket, and liquor stores. I felt safe walking around the area at night. The breakfast offered was plentiful and served in a spacious room. The hotel was reasonably priced for the cleanliness and comfort it provided.
Strongly recommend this hotel.

I chose Lic Hotel for its proximity to the iconic landmarks of New York, particularly the fascinating Museum of the Moving Image. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of facilities and services offered by Lic, including parking facilities and a terrace with stunning city views. The complimentary full breakfast served daily was a delightful touch, and the onsite bar added to the overall convenience of the stay.
Nothing in the vicinity. Area feels deserted at night, but metro is reasonably close.

During my recent business trip to New York, I had the pleasure of staying at Lic Hotel, selected by our director. The hotel promised a relaxing and wonderful visit, and it truly delivered. The gym offered a great way to unwind after a long day of meetings, and I appreciated the various recreational opportunities available on-site. The amenities, including the gym, ensured an enjoyable and rejuvenating stay.
Breakfast wasn't varied, a bit cramped.

The location of the hotel is very convenient, as it is right next to the subway station and within walking distance to the E train station. Additionally, there is a good supermarket conveniently located opposite the hotel. The rooms are clean and the bathroom is modern. The staff provides excellent service, and the breakfast options are satisfying. Guests can also enjoy the panoramic views from the rooftop terrace.
The furniture at the rooftop needs updating.

Our family had a blast at the nearby museums and parks, and the cable TV provided endless entertainment for the kids, especially with the popular children's show marathon every evening. The convenience of having such family-friendly attractions nearby made our stay even more enjoyable.
In my wife's opinion, the addition of a kids' play area in the lobby would have been great for families with young children.

I loved being centrally located in the heart of Long Island City, with easy access to the United Nations Headquarters and Empire State Building. The free full breakfast and rooftop terrace were a bonus!
Who needs fresh fruit at breakfast anyway? So overrated.
