Baccarat Hotel & Residences, New York
Expert reviews
“Unabashed opulence is what you get as soon as you step into the lobby, there are about 15,000 pieces of the brand’s crystal throughout, including glassware and chandeliers. Arrangements of fresh red roses everywhere add a touch of color.”
Featured in CN Traveler’s 2020 Gold List.
“Famed crystal company Baccarat dazzled even the most jaded traveler when it opened its first hotel in New York City in 2015. With its unflinchingly glamorous public spaces, subtly luxurious guest rooms, splashy bars and an ultra-luxe spa, Baccarat Hotel and Residences is nothing short of pure opulence.”

All you need to know
The Baccarat Hotel is located across the Museum of Modern Art, and minutes away from famous tourist spots such as Rockefeller Center, Radio City Music Hall, and Times Square. Nearby there are some scrumptious eateries like Le Bernardin and The Modern.
The exterior of the Baccarat Hotel distinguishes itself through its exquisite glass and crystal work and appears lively with the variation of weather. The interior of the hotel blinks from head to toe, with the inside, filled with crystal décor, wooden flooring, and covered in sleek fabric flaunting subtle elegance and sophistication.
The hotel offers 60 private residences along with 114 guestrooms styled with a touch of French customs. Glamorous room décor includes woven rugs, marble walls, and wooden flooring, they have chic modernized set up to control the temperature, lights, and different highlights in the room and of course a minibar to wrap up the luxuries.
Some other assistance provided by the hotel to make the experience wonderful includes an indoor pool, parking, lavish spa, fitness center, sauna, room service, 24hr front desk, and free Wi-Fi. The Baccarat Hotel is family-friendly, but the fragile crystal embellishments that make the place glamorous are better to be kept out of children’s range.

Disappointing
The hotel is stunning 😍 ✨️ 👌
the staff attentions to us was way below the expectations. Some are extremely rude. my previous experience was way better. I'm not sure if I'm gonna recommend this hotel for anyone.

Not value for money
Location
Interiors and rooms are dated and very dark. The cost of food in the lobby is ridiculous - $19 for a glass of orange juice is just plain insulting.

A better hairdryer, more water and ice and a bathtub.

Nice luxury hotel could do better with customer experience
Nice luxury hotel, comfortable beds, clean rooms and good location if you’re looking to stay uptown. Beautiful pool in basement.
The staff at the cafe/breakfast is NOT friendly. after multiple visits to this hotel, even when not staying at this hotel, we often come for breakfast or snacks, I can honestly say that the staff that run this cafe (same faces every time) are so unpleasant! Hire new staff or retrain them! They are not a good image for the baccarat dining experience.

The rooms were lux and well appointed. The staff were attentive. Housekeeping was top notch.
I arrived on foot in the rain and walked past the hotel MULTIPLE times because it is NOT well labeled from the street. I was a drowned rat by the time I noticed the black on black barely illuminated sign with doormen standing in front of it.

Location. Excellent design. Very comfortable bed and pillows.
Restaurant service. I had to wait until someone serve us for 20 minutes, finally had to call for the waiter and ask a menu. Also I was charged twice for one drink.

Pleasant
The atmosphere was nice and the staff was very friendly and accommodating
Way over priced room service. I paid $9 to get one measly slice of bacon added to a burger. I will never understand adding a delivery fee for in-room dining. And overall the food just was not good, especially for the price you pay. We tried multiple things just for the sake of convenience and it ended up being a huge waste of money

I wish we had a better view from the room

I am staying at baccarat at my next visit to New York
the ambience is cozy and the rooms had a luxurious feel AND the bathroom had a bidet which is a big plus
the hotel is located in the busiest area

Absolutely fabulous, nothing more to say.
Absolutely fantastic, room was exceptional, the décor was elegant and cosy. The staff were excellent and went above and beyond they are a total credit to the hotel. Well done.
The room could have been better if it had a bath tub as well, but that is not a negative in my opinion. However, if the room did have a bath tub, it would have put the "icing on the cake".

Will not be staying again.
Absolute lack of detail and service for a five star property. Very disappointing and will not be staying again.

Terrible and Overpriced. Moved to Equinox Hotel instead
Not much is to be liked
- dirty robes (so disgusting! we got new ones and they were ripped; twice!) - flashing smoke detector kept us up - stingy with shampoo/body lotion - weirdly unfinished shower - broken mirror lights - noisy location - rude staff that wouldn’t accommodate a paid upgrade, even while showing him that there was a suite available for upgrade. once he noticed the suite was available, rudely said to me it wouldn’t be ready until “wayyyy later in the day”, discouraging me from a paid upgrade. also was super rude at check in.

Bad
We had to change room on 3 occasions due to the smell of weed and the parties in the room next door. A week has now past and I still haven’t received the refund promised by the hotel. Quite a joke

great location, overpriced
The location was amazing. The hotel ambiance was spectacular.
There was no coffee machine in the room. We traveled with the kids, and ordered in room dining almost everyday. The food was extremely high priced. Once we ordered 1 boiled potato as my daughter was stomachsick, it was like 40 dollars plus tax.

Not worth the price
The bed was comfortable, and the location was convenient to many major attractions. The room was clean and the climate control in the room was good. The Japanese toilet was nice. The room service was good, even though the food was expensive.
The staff was stingy with drinking water. The room was smaller than expected and had no view. I was overcharged for breakfast once and they did not correct it (chose to ignore it). Overall, the room/stay was not a value for money.
