April 2008 Martyn,
My experience with apartments2book.com was a positive one, and I will most definitely be using your company again in the future. Your staff was responsive to my inquiries, courteous and professional at all times.
I cannot adequately express in words my satisfaction with our stay at
9
Midtown East at 39th. The property is perfectly situated in Midtown Manhattan, and Grand Central Station is an easy walk (3 blocks) away. The neighbourhood is quiet (by New York standards), and anything you could need is nearby including restaurants, grocery stores, and convenience markets. The staff
were absolutely wonderful. The doorman always greeted us with a smile and a friendly hello, which really made us feel welcome. Whether we needed a cab, or directions, he was always there to take care of us. The front desk staff was also friendly and professional. The housekeeping staff kept our room clean and tidy, which was nice to
come home to after a long day of sightseeing. We were in a 1 bedroom apartment on the 9th floor, and were very happy with the accommodations. The decor may be a little dated, but everything is in good condition and was quite comfortable. I would not hesitate to recommend this property to my friends, and will definitely be returning
again on my next trip to New York. Thank you, apartments2book.com!

We stayed at 4 Midtown East at
49th for 10 nights in March 2008 we had a fantastic time, the apartment and the Staff were fantastic, the looked after us very well. I would recommend this very highly. The apartment was spacious(2 bed rooms) and a television in each room as
well as the sitting room. We look forward to returning there again.

Feedback on the service and property itself was brilliant!!! We had booked a 1bedroom and 2 bedroom apartment 4 Midtown East at
49th and the property was perfect for our needs, very well appointed, brilliantly located and we would absolutely return to it in a moment.
My query is a clarification on cost. The confirmation email from you that included a deposit from my credit card, I believed that this cost was a deposit on the total accommodation cost and therefore to be deducted from the total cost upon payment at the accommodation in New York. When I came to pay, the cost was not deducted
from the total amount. Is this the standard procedure??
Please let me know if you need more detail.
I would really appreciate your clarification in this matter.
Kind regards,
Jane Connor

We stayed at
11 Upper Westside at 75th and was very pleased with the accommodation and the price. Although the decor was slightly dated the layout was terrific. The kitchenette was brilliant as we have 2 young boys and I could feed then when needed. Actually the kitchenette was missing some essentials like
knives (sharp, cutting ones) and chopping boards. The location is excellent. Having the two supermarkets over the road and being so close to the subway made life very easy. The people I dealt with in the UK office where extremely polite and patient with us, as we had to change our dates twice. Many thanks for helping us find a
great place to stay. Cheers

We have just returned from a week in New York where we stayed in
9
Midtown East at 39th. We were really pleased with the apartment which we considered was extremely good value for money. It was spacious and spotlessly clean and the reception staff were very helpful. The apartment is also ideally located for visiting all the sights in NY. I would thoroughly recommend
this apartment to anyone wanting to visit NY. I would also like to thank the staff of apartments2book.com for their very professional and efficient service. I am sure we will be using your services again in the future

The Website is Great. However I would like to see more pictures of the apartments available. The picture in your web was not as nice as the apartment se stayed in.
I would never stay in a Hotel in NYC again. Our apartment was wonderful, clean. Just Great. I have told everyone about your web site, and our Christmas in NYC.

I will definitely use this website again
Would be good to see availability on the site Very good site!!

The apartment was fantastic- an excellent location and large and clean. 4 Midtown East at
49th Every morning there was a fresh array of bagels etc and juice for breakfast. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The only problem was when we were to check out (we tried to do it the night before to save time) and the computer systems were not working. We had a very
early flight that morning and this delayed us slightly. We asked to be sent the final bill (a receipt) which I still do not have. (I would appreciate if you could chase this).
This is a small glitch and really I cannot recommend the apartment enough. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.

We were perfectly happy with the level of service that we received both with apartments2book and with the staff at 2 Midtown South at 31st. We were also very impressed with the accommodation that we stayed in and its location within New York, so we fell we had very good value for money.

The location was especially great...2-3 blocks from both Times Square and Rockafeller Center, and close to the subway.
7 Midtown Times Square. The accommodations were very nice, TV and air conditioning in each room and everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We rented a 2 bedroom which had a pullout sofa in
the living area. The staff on hand were very helpful. We are planning a trip to Rome in the fall and may consider an apartment there as well!

Dear Martyn
Happy to provide feedback on the New York accommodation.4 Midtown East at
49th
Overall, the serviced apartment was very good. Staff were friendly and cheerful. The apartment was well serviced and when we asked for things to be done (there was initially not enough crockery and glassware), they were done very quickly. It was clear that staff had been told to keep customers
satisfied in any practical way, and they were doing their best to carry this out.
The apartment itself was just as described, and fully met our needs.
Overall, therefore, we were very satisfied customers.
Kind regards

We stayed 9 nights at
11 Upper Westside at 75th and found the hotel clean and very comfortable. The staff were friendly and efficient. The rooms are spacious and light and the hotel is situated in a good area with access to many restaurants and diners and close to Central Park. We would not hesitate to stay there
again.

Dear Martyn,
Thanks for the opportunity to speak up mine and my husband’s enjoyment on spending the my vacation in such amazing conditions as the ones you offered in
9
Midtown East at 39th
We found everything in the apartment so clean, so at ease, we did not miss anything a family might dream for a perfect vacation! We met friendly people within the premises, everybody had a helping hand for us, an advise or even a simple sincere smile!
Due to very suitable location of
9
Midtown East at 39th we could visit easily, walking all major NY landmarks and any means of transportation was at ease as well.
In just a few words, my husband just informed me that as we will come next year to NY, he could not want to seek any other place
What better compliment for a perfect place like yours???
Thanks see you next year Martyn,

Hi,
just wanted to say that we had a really enjoyable stay at the
9
Midtown East at 39th, for 5 nights in April. We had booked a Junior Suite for my husband, myself and son, but on arrival we were upgraded (at no extra charge) to a one bedroom apartment with 2 huge double beds; better still it was a penthouse apartment on the top floor, with a balcony and a stunning
view of the Empire State building. Lots of room, stacks of cupboard space, clean and quiet.
The location was excellent, and we used the buses a lot, buying a six journey Metro card which cost just 10 dollars. We can recommend the nearby Italian restaurant, Fagiolini, on the corner of East 39th and Lexington. We also enjoyed a meal at the Madison Bistro, on Madison Avenue between 37th and 38th Streets; we had the set lunch
menu for just over $20 and it was good value.
New York lived up to our expectations; our personal favourites were the Frick museum, MOMA (free on Thursday from late afternoon), the Ellis Island museum, the Empire State, the main New York Library building, and a night at the Metropolitan Opera.
Thanks for booking the accommodation for us,
kind regards,
Sue (Bailey)

7 - Midtown Times Square - Loved it...it is the perfect location for tourists to New York. Everything we wanted was within walking distance. It was the perfect tourist accommodations within the heart of Times Square and the Theatre District. I would highly recommend this place.

Our stay at
11 Upper Westside at 75th was wonderful. The Location is perfect, surrounded by lots of retail, restaurants, attractions and well placed for transportation. Also, even though on a busy street, there is very little night noise. The apartment was clean and pleasantly decorated and the staff friendly and helpful.
My only suggestion would be a larger coffee maker in the kitchen.
Your agency, as usual did a fine job of arranging the booking. thanks for your help.

The apartment at 2 Midtown South at 31st was very good, in fact it exceeded my expectations. I was surprised to find it within a hotel, but that made it all the more special to have both the facilities of an apartment and the assistance that a hotel provides.
The property was very clean, and had everything you required. The desk was very helpful and friendly, and answered all questions professionally. The location was excellent, and was only a few blocks away from the biggest attractions.
I defiantly will look at using apartments2book again on any future holidays.

Dear Martyn
My boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay at 2 Midtown South at 31st I was expecting an apartment block as per previous experiences (not booked through yourselves) and was pleasantly surprised to find a hotel with all the services that comes with a hotel, e.g. concierge, doorman, reception. They were very accommodating on our arrival to
change our room to one away from the lifts. I was extremely pleased to find a pillow menu as I have problems with my neck and upper back so to be able to have the same type of pillow I have at home was a rare treat. The location , opposite Penn Station, was perfect for us. I could not fault the accommodation or the service
throughout the booking and our stay. I would definitely consider using your services again in the future.
Thank you

The assistance I received from your staff was probably above and beyond their job descriptions. Something went wrong originally and two ladies on your staff, Angie and Matilda, co-operated in getting us confirmation of a booking at the last minute.
Our accommodation at the 2 Midtown South at 31st was about as we expected. Such service that we required was prompt and courteous.
Only two concerns - the rate was a bit higher than we expected for that property and the one window where there was any view at all had condensation between the panes so the window had to be open to see anything.

Midtown East at 39th on 28th Oct 2006, very exhausted after long delay , thankfully on entering our apartment we soon cheered up. Our accommodation was fantastic the rooms were off excellent size an we had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. We had the best of both worlds cook breakfast
or eat out, as there was a fantastic restaurant on the corner, also I recommend the deli, also conveniently round the corner, which stocks everything from drink to bread !! Just a word off warning as this is the city that never sleeps, be prepared for the sound of traffic constant! But with views of the empire state building and
within walking distance to 5th avenue, these apartments are a must.

We stayed at 4 Midtown East at
49th New York.
I absolutely loved it there. I will definitely be booking them again. The service, location and the actual apartment was excellent. Supermarkets, Subway system and great shopping are all nearby. It was also great to have laundry self service available and the breakfast basket was great!. The bedding was very comfortable including
the sofa Beds, and very clean. Very friendly staff, very prompt.
I'll definitely be going back to NYC next year and Indefinitely be staying there again.
The website is excellent. Very easy to search through. The pricing showed is what you get...

We stayed at the 4 Midtown East at
49th Manhattan on 31st Street for a very special 30th Birthday treat, and it absolutely lived up to all our expectations! We had booked a studio apartment, but when the staff realised that it was a special occasion we were upgraded to a beautiful and very spacious one bedroom apartment, with 2 bathrooms!
We were so grateful and could not have been happier with all the services that he hotel provided from the very trendy Niles restaurant and bar to the excellent concierge desk in the main lobby. The location of the hotel is fantastic as it is only 2 blocks from Macy's and within walking distance of all great places in New York such
as the Empire state building, Madison Square Gardens, Times Square and Broadway. We would also say a big thank you to Matilda who dealt with our booking, she was always prompt in replying to queries. We would use your services again and are currently planning our trips for next year!
The only thing that would be handy on the website would be an availability calendar, rather than having to fill in the enquiry form. But apart from that it is great and easy to navigate around!

Dear Mr Lawson,
I like it very much to inform you about our stay in the
7 - Midtown Times Square during our recent visit to New York. The level of service provided by your Company and your staff was very good and the apartment very well provided. Although a bit more stuff in the kitchen would be a good idea. For instance to bake an egg there is no stuff to turn it
around and that sort of things. There are only knifes, forks and spoons. But that is my only remark!!! For the rest the apartment is super and it is situated in a perfect part of New York!!!! In the middle of the theatre centre full of shops and restaurants.
There is only one comment I want to make. My brother and his wife became grandparents for the third time and wish to phone the new parents every day. We can't use our own mobiles because the system is quite different in Holland. So we had to phone with a card! It was very annoying we couldn't phone from the apartment and had to do
this on the ground floor. Too busy!!
Thanks to
7 - Midtown Times Square we had a super stay in New York!!!

Hi
Rebecca forwarded this onto me as I stayed in
8
Murray Hill at 39th
apartment.
Overall everything was great. All staff were very friendly
and helpful, the apartment was well cleaned each day, and
the facilities were good. If I had to make any comments on
improvement it would be that the décor is looking a
little tired and there were no sharp knives for cooking.
Many thanks

Dear Martyn
We have already told all our friends in Sydney to use
your company next time they travel anywhere in the World
where you have apartments!
Our stay at 2 Midtown South at 31st Manhattan for 3 nights early this
month was wonderful!!! From the first impression as we
booked in, the staff (at all levels) were so positive and so
helpful nothing at all was a problem! The apartments were
superior in size, the bathrooms were fantastic-spotless and
clean and every single request from Housekeeping (even for
more ice-cube trays) were actioned within minutes. It
was so refreshing to stay somewhere where the staff
obviously are passionate about their jobs! The
location was great-walk to everywhere-Macys one block and
everything else so close by! Great Deli next door that has
EVERYTHING in it!!! Very safe also!
We are going back next year to New York with friends
and will definitely be using apartments2book and staying in
their New York apartments!

Hi Martyn
My husband and I recently spent 6 nights at
8
Murray Hill at 39th studio apartment. We arrived late
at night after a long flight from Australia and were warmly
welcomed by the Reception staff and were very impressed at
the size of our room!! Great location also!!! Its just
perfect and quiet but still only a few streets away from
Empire State and all the action of Mid-town! Great Italian
restaurant connected to hotel and also great Japanese only a
few doors away!! Would not recommend the Frontier Diner
though nearby-the only American DINER I've ever eaten in
which wasn't up to scratch.
Would recommend these Apartments and we will be staying
there again next year when we are back in New York-also easy
access to Internet in Reception which always seemed
available (we used it every day!)
Also lots of interesting boutiques nearby on 2nd Avenue-New
York is still the Shoppers Paradise!!!

Hi Martyn,
Our vacation in NYC was fabulous and went off without a
hitch. Your staff was always very helpful and got back
to me very quickly with any questions I had. We were
expected at our accommodation, with the rate we had
confirmed through your company. 15
- Central Park at BroadwayThis property is a luxury hotel in a
fantastic location...we were spoilt the entire time by the
attentive staff. It was a once in a lifetime getaway
for us to stay in such luxury accommodations! The room
was spacious, with fridge and a lounger and tons of closet
space. We had an
amazing view of midtown and the east side and central park,
just as we had asked. We also had the 10th floor,
which we had also asked for (we'd asked for a high floor).
Overall I would definitely book with your company
again. I was expecting something to go wrong with the
reservation or the accommodation (why would a Canadian book
through a UK company to go to NYC?!) but it was all
totally great.
Thanks a lot!
Carin

I found your apartment
30 - Midtown Central Park
Residence was in an excellent location and ideally
situated for both the relaxation of Central Park and the
hustle and bustle of Times Square etc. Every was well kept
and the rooms were cleaned on a daily basis. The only
downside we found was that the only toilet in the apartment
had to be accessed through the only bedroom. This was not
convenient for the person sleeping in the living room as
they had to access the toilet through the bedroom. We still
very much enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to
others.
Thanks.

Dear Martyn
We recently spent 8 nights
at 8
Murray Hill at 39th
Our one-bedroom apartment
was large enough for ourselves and two teenage children and
it was a bonus to have a fully equipped kitchen. The staff
were friendly and helpful and on arrival explained directions
to grocery stores so we could stock up on breakfast
items. The location of the apartments couldn't have
been better. This was our first time to New York and we found
it really easy to find our way around. A 5 minute walk to
subway and walking distance to Times Square, Empire State
building etc. We had an amazing holiday there and if we
ever go to New York again I wouldn't hesitate to contact
apartments2book for our accommodation needs.
Many thanks

Dear Mr. Lawson
The accommodation at the
11 Upper Westside at 75th was
excellent. The staff at the hotel were very helpful with all
our enquiries. The only down side was that when we arrived at
1:00 we were told that we couldn't check in until 2:00 which
we hadn't been told by you. Also when we arrived back at 2:00
the room wasn't ready and we had to wait another hour.
Despite the initial set back we had an excellent holiday and
thank you for the booking. Mrs. L Storey
P.S. Please tell future travellers about the wonderful
supermarket opposite the hotel! It would be possible to cater
for yourself in the apartment, shopping at the supermarket.
Though it would be a shame to miss eating out in New
York!

Dear Martyn,
We had
a fantastic stay at 4 Midtown East at
49th
The location is superb, the staff were very helpful and
always cheerful. The size of the apartment was
amazing. It was great to have so much space staying
with our three children on their first trip to New
York. The children loved that there were three
televisions! The kitchen was also a big bonus,
including the breakfast items re-stocked each
day. We
found your staff very accommodating. Our flight
details changed a couple of times, and your staff were very
quick to re-book our required dates. We will
definitely stay again the next time we visit New
York. We are
hoping to visit Toronto this year, and have already
enquired from your company about apartments
there. We
would not hesitate to use your company again. kind

The reception
staff were very helpful and pleasant. The apartment was well
serviced daily. The apartment No 3 I think,
was very small the double bed was against the wall which was
difficult, however the apartment next door still a studio
was much larger and renovated....I guess that is the luck of
the draw. Your service was excellent
with very prompt replies and would use you again. I have
just given my brother your details for London in
April. Yours sincerely

Stayed 8 nights at 9
Midtown East at 39th. Location was
perfect. Easy to get to Time Square. Not too far from
Chelsea/Village either. Delis in the corner. Friendly and
helpful staff. Room with 2 queen beds was large and
perfectly cleaned everyday. The room was also pretty
quiet. Will definitely stay there again in the future.

Dear Sir/Madam. Some feedback on your company and
the accommodation we've tried.
I have now used your company to source a serviced
apartment twice for stays in New York at Xmas. On both
occasions your website and staff were able to match me to
the type of accommodation, price and location that I
required, and with the minimum of fuss. The website is a
handy way to decide on location (although more info on the
apartments might allow someone to choose between them
better).
Last year we stayed at 9 Midtown East at
39th , an
excellent location moments from Grand Central station. The
apartment block was boutique, with a lovely
concierge/awning/atrium, and we picked an apartment rather
than studio as we were sleeping 3 guys. We got a huge
lounge/dining area with 2 big sofas, a dining table etc and
a separate bedroom with 2 large double beds, a decent size
kitchen and bathroom. One lounge sofa was a sofa bed which
was reasonable quality and the beds were excellent. Decor
was a little twee and views weren't great, but the room
and location were excellent value for money and we weren't
in the room much.
This year (Dec again) I took my girlfriend and
we picked a studio at 2
Midtown South at
31st.
This was a higher quality building with a cool
bar/restaurant and fantastic concierge desk who can book you
anything from restaurants to helicopter flights, and they
went out of their way to help (on one occasion the guy
couldn't help us get a table at a much in-demand restaurant
and was nearly in tears at his failure!). The studio was
small but well furnished, really a high-quality hotel room
with a kitchen off to one side. The bathroom was small but
functional and the shower was fantastic. It is a pricier
place than Midtown 39th, but this is reflected in the extras
(the bar, the smart decor, the choice of pillows!). It is
also in a superb location, one block south of Macys and on
7th avenue meaning a 10 minute stroll north to the heart of
Times Square.

There had been some confusion about the booking -
when we arrived at the accommodation they had the room
reserved for four nights instead of the five we
required. They had availability so we could stay for
five nights.
could not fault the location of the
property 2 Midtown South at 31st
- perfect for the tourist. The room was
clean and the bedroom was spacious. The
bathroom was tiny but clean.
The concierge services were
helpful.
January 2006
Rate changes and additions
need regular updating. When we booked there was no
occupancy tax and unit tax mentioned, until we
confirmed the booking.
: Our stay in a one bedroom apartment at
8
Murray Hill at 39th in New York was fantastic! We
stayed for 11 nights over Christmas 2005 and New Year. We
are four students travelling on a tight budget, but
found the apartment to be more economical than anywhere
else. The apartment exceeded every expectation. We
enjoyed having so much space with a separate living
area from the bedroom, two toilets and two TVs. Also
there was a laundry facility in the basement which was very
handy. It was great having a kitchen - our only suggestion
is that the kitchen could be
better equipped with utensils such as a spatula, peeler,
baking tray, etc.
But the basics were all there. The house keeping staff were
fantastic. The location was perfect - right near Grand
Central Station. We always felt safe. We would
definitely use this booking service again also.
Apartments2book.com had the best rates for this property,
and we had round-the clock service during the booking
process.
Thank you for everything,
Girls from Australia.

My wife and I stayed in the 8 Murray Hill at
39thapartment in December 2005. Great location,
only 5 minutes walk to Grand Central Station, right in
midtown Manhattan giving you easy travel uptown or
downtown. The staff were extremely helpful, the apartment
big enough to give you a lot of living space. Good to
have a kitchen for those days when you didn't want to
brave the freezing temperatures too early to go for
breakfast! Great hotel service with the freedom of an
apartment. Thoroughly recommended.

Hi
Martyn
The
30 - Midtown Central
Park Residence was
excellent. The situation is ideal being within
reasonable walking distance from shops and theatres and very
accessible to the subway system. The accommodation is
generous and the apartment well maintained. Front of
house staff were mostly helpful but could be a bit offhand
when under pressure. I would definitely stay
again.
This is in
sharp contrast to the accommodation at Queensgate, which was
expensive and lousy, poor value and to be avoided at all
costs. You were going to inspect these premises
yourself to review my complaints. What did you
find?
Regards

informative and the staff extremely helpful in my dealings
with them.
Seven friends and I reserved 2 one bedroom apartments
through this website in New York City in early November. We
stayed at the .9
Midtown East at 39th One word
sums up our accommodation. Superb! The location of the
apartments could not have been better. Only 15 minutes
walk to Times Square and even less to 5th Avenue and all the
shops. Grand Central Station was only 5 minutes away
and well worth a look. Opening the blinds in the
morning we were greeted with a fantastic view of The
Empire State Building. Numerous diners and cafes
surrounded the apartments, and the Italian restaurant
Fagiolini on the corner of Lexington Avenue above the
apartments is divine. Please go.
The apartments were spotless and very spacious. Bed linen and
towels were changed each day. A large TV in both the
bedroom and lounge allowed us to relax and watch some
sport when we weren't pounding the pavement. The fully
equipped kitchen also allowed us to prepare small snacks,
though full meals could be cooked with ease. It even
had a dishwasher! The bathroom had one of the best
shower units I've ever used. The staff were extremely
helpful and always greeted you with a smile and a hello.
The on-site laundry was also very useful. When we
return to NYC, we'll certainly be staying in 9 Midtown East at 39th

The apartment

Dear Martyn Lawson,
During our recent stay in New York we were satisfied with our
accommodation at 17 - Upper Eastside
Residence We were also happy with locating and
booking through your company. Would approach
"Apartments2book" in future and am recommending your
company's services to others.

Hi Martyn
The apartments at
8 Murray Hill at 39th were AMAZING!!! There is no better
location for New York city beginners!! We were shocked at
how spacious the apartment was and we felt like we lived
there as they were so homely. The staff were
fantastic!! From reception to housekeeping all of them
made us feel like part of the family. We will be
returning to New York next year with a large group and we
will most certainly be staying at Murray Hill!!!
Thank u so much for making our first time in New York
AMAZING!!!

8 Murray Hill at 39th
The apartment is exactly
what we expected - clean, roomy and the kitchen facilities
were very useful. The price was as agreed and very reasonable
- though for us the US taxes are always steep. The
location was wonderfully central to Grand Central Station,
the Empire State building, the UN, Central Park, shops, a
supermarket, convenience stores, delis and restaurants. We
always felt safe walking back to the apartment even in the
early hours of the morning. The staff were attentive and
efficient. We would highly recommend the accommodation and
your company. The apartments2book staff responded quickly and
effectively.

Dear Mr Lawson,
Thank you for asking. We enjoyed our stay in New York
and thought that 8 Murray Hill at 39th was excellent. It is a very
cost-effective way of staying in the city and the apartment
was kept clean by housekeeping services. Furniture was
of good quality and the bed was extremely comfortable.
I would recommend this apartment to anyone.
Minor comments relate to the small amount of cutlery &
crockery provided
Kind regards

Dear Mr.
Lawson,
It was a very positive surprise!
We have found the 11 Upper Westside at
75tha great place
to stay while in NYC. The hotel seems as if has been
recently renovated. The room we have received for our 5 days
stay is very large, comfortable, quiet and with a lot of
natural light. The hotel is very conveniently located. We
liked the very kind and efficient service given by all staff
members.
I would like also to mention the high service level provided
by your staff at all stages of business with your
office.
It has been our first experience in dealing with you. Since
we were very satisfied, we have already given your address
to friends, will continue to do it and before visiting NYC
or other cities, we will check first with you.
Best regards,
Judith and Arnon Siegmann

better and the apartment was just ideal for our four person

Hi,
We found the apartment to be
perfect 4 Midtown East at
49th. It contained two large bedrooms, a
bathroom, a large sitting room with dining area and a small
but well equipped kitchen which was entirely adequate. The
apartment was very clean and was attended to on a daily
basis. Fruit, cereal, tea, coffee, muffins and milk were
supplied daily. ALL the staff were friendly and helpful. The
apartment is located right in the heart of Manhattan,
excellent for sightseeing. Would we stay again? Absolutely.
A GREAT FIND.
We have to thank 'apartments2book' for their website which
helped us greatly and when planning our next holiday will
definitely use your services.
Thank You.

I stayed in 11 Upper Westside at 75th in August this year with my
husband and 4 month old baby and was really pleased with
the accommodation. It was spacious and comfortable
(although the kitchenette was tiny but I suppose most
people would eat out). The staff were brilliant - friendly
and helpful. Our microwave broke and they replaced it
with a brand new one within 5 minutes. The location was
great, a few blocks from central park and the museums
and we were opposite the wonderful Fairways food
market - which was so convenient. Also we found the
cafe / restaurant next to the hotel to be very convenient,
especially as they also did room service. I will be
staying again.

Dear Apartment2book.com
We found the service of apartments2book.com did just
what it said on the tin! The website, hotel/apartment
selection and booking process delivered what we expected from
an on-line booking service. I flew to NYC in August to visit
our adult daughters at medical school there. I would
certainly use the service again and/or recommend it to
others. Positives: We booked one week
at 20 Upper Westside Budget Rooms
Being a
New Yorker having emigrated to the UK ten years ago I knew
NYC pretty well. The apartments were former University
dormitories. Good value for money but only just. The
hotel like service was fine; door monitoring by entry buzzer;
lifts were small but there were two; beds seemed reasonably
new and firm; daily clean towels and bed linen, made up beds
everyday; sink basin, shower and loo in working order.
Adequate closets. Mini fridge and microwave. The location is
great for the upper west side, Broadway with
all shops and restaurants is a quick two blocks away; a
day gym, one block away; also, around the corner, Zabar's
deli. Iffy bits: We expected the
rooms to be compact but not to be in such a state of
disrepair that the paint was literally peeling off the walls.
We understood there had been a fire earlier in the summer and
now all the rooms are being redecorated. They hadn't made it
to the 15th floor yet! Also, the booking website did
advertise a computer modem in room; this was not the case
and it was one of the major criteria for selecting this
hotel so I was truly annoyed at having to walk 5 blocks
every morning and sit there most of the working day to
get to a internet access at Starbucks. Perhaps that could be
looked into and the website listing changed to avoid future
disappointment. Looking
forward to using your service again when next I'm off to
NYC.
With kind regards,
Lisette

Dear Martyn,
Thank
you ever so much for suggesting 1
- Midtown East 50th New York.....we had a wonderful stay this
summer there. It was very
comfortable.....and a quiet place to stay in the heart of New
York. The staff there was very helpful, courteous and the
room was very well kept always. We as a family do highly
recommend it as a place to stay....the only thing is there
was no washing machine in the kitchen ....wish there was one
it would have been great and really convenient!!!!!!!!!
Many Thanks

Reservation and confirmation was handled very
efficiently by your staff - the New York reception staff were
also very accommodating and helpful. The accommodating was also very suitable and convenient for our needs -
4 Midtown East at
49th location was ideal in that we were only two blocks below 5th Avenue and three blocks from Grand Central
Station he daily supplies of coffee, tea, milk etc in the
apartment was also most welcome. I have now stayed at three
of your properties - Toronto, Sydney and New York and the
facilities, location and rates have all been extremely
satisfactory. I will not hesitate in choosing your service in
the future or recommending to any of my friends. Kind Regards Allan R Roome.

Just wanted to let you
know that we had a great stay at 9

I wanted to let you that our
accommodations 9 Midtown East at 39th were
wonderful. Our NY friends were amazed when they saw
the size of the apartment. It's location was great,
the staff was helpful and professional, and the place was
very clean and kept up. The location was perfect--and
the
neighbourhood was exactly as advertised. Thanks so
much. While I'd stay there again and have already
recommended this to many friends,
I'm also looking forward to trying out your other
properties. You've definitely earned my trust.
Sincerely,
Suzy Evans

We just stayed at
30 - Midtown Central
Park Residence. We
could not have been more pleased. A terrific location - we
could be anywhere in minutes, convenient to shopping, delis,
restaurants, subway, buses. The apartment was very spacious
and our two grandsons had plenty of room for their
belongings without the entire apartment being messy. I hope
to stay there again. I would even try to plan my trip around
that unit's availability.
Thank you very your kind attention and help.

We stayed at the 8
Murray Hill at 39th early May and
are happy to report that the accommodations exceeded our
expectations! We have a 2-year old son and shared a
1-bedroom with my cousin and her 2-year old. The apartment
was so spacious, the boys actually rode a trike (we brought
along to take to Central Park) around the living room on a
rainy day! It is the only way to travel if you have children
in tow. The kitchen was very well-equipped and featured
nice, newer appliances, the beds were comfortable, and there
were plenty of towels in the bath. The staff at the
property were also very friendly and helpful. And the
location was great too; we could easily walk to Times Square
and the tourist hub, yet the building is on a quiet
residential street sparing us the sounds of NYC traffic.
Apartments2book.com offered the best rates I could find for
this property. Thanks for a great weekend in NYC, and we'll
definitely use your services again!

I loved the apartment
at 8 Murray Hill at
39th.
We stayed there from the 30th of March to April 3. The
people at the hotel were wonderful. The suite was
perfect! Our entire New York experience was wonderful.
We spent 3 and a half days in New York and loved
it. I would love to go back again and, if I do,
I will definitely stay at Murray Hill at 39th. I will
recommend this place to all my friends. We could walk
to most of the tourist spots easily and for those places a
bit farter away we took a bus. Thanks for your
hospitality, we had a great time!!! :-)

Hi folks
Just returned from our New York City vacation this
past Monday, and I wanted to write to let you know that
my wife and I were TREMENDOUSLY pleased with our stay at
the 7 - Midtown Times Square that you arranged for us.
Staff there were very friendly, the room was to our liking,
and one could not possibly ask for a more convenient location
within the heart of the city I'm very glad to have found your
service, as I don't think I could have found such perfect
accommodations on my own. I will definitely keep your service
in mind as I plan a vacation to San Francisco next year.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely, Brad Hutchings Canada

We were pleased with our stay
at 4 Midtown East at
49th. The room and building were very clean,
the staff was friendly, it was convenient to have the high
speed internet connection, and the fresh fruit, English
muffins, milk, and orange juice was a nice touch. I
especially liked that the room had hard wood floors opposed
to carpeting. I would definitely stay again and recommend
the place to others

Dear Martyn
We were very happy with our apartment 7 MidtownTimes Square
The central location was
affordable and ideal for a tourist, and the food shops in
the vicinity were overwhelming. The staff were
very friendly and informative, without being intrusive (we
like our privacy) and the brochures at reception gave us all
the info we needed to get around Manhattan. I
particularly loved being able to open the windows and look
out onto the street below. You can't do that in a lot
of accommodation these days.
Thanks for having us.

My wife and
I have travelled to New York on many occasions. There
is no place like New York and it is a place where you go to
absorb the atmosphere and to sample the way of life. No
more so than at Christmas. This was the first time that we had stayed at
2 Midtown South at 31st We
travelled to New York with our one year old baby girl.
The purpose of our visit was to meet with family who were
living in both new York and Chicago. The moment we arrived at the
reception we were greeted by a friendly receptionist who took
time to say hello to our baby. She checked us in and
suggested that if we were to wait for approx 30 minutes she
would do her best to give us an apartment with 2 separate
bathrooms. We were absolutely delighted and true to her
word within 15 minutes we had such an apartment. This
was particularly important given the fact that we were
travelling with our baby. In fact it was this gesture
that ensured primarily that our baby remained in her routine
from home. This was our one real apprehension before
travelling to New York. May I also say that while were waiting for that 15
minutes another member of staff brought a teddy bear and gave
it to our baby. It was this initial 30 minutes which
put us immediately at ease and set the tone for the whole
trip. we were delighted with
our apartment and the facilities it provided. My
wife prepares all her own food for our baby and the apartment
and kitchen area afforded her ample room to continue to do
this. We had a
fantastic stay in New York and this was in no small part due
to the facilities available at 2
Midtown South at
31st and to the friendly and welcoming atmosphere which
prevailed. So much so that when we returned home that
we made an immediate enquiry about returning next
year. many thanks

The 8 Murray Hill at 39th Apartment we stayed in was
fantastic. The location was an easy walk to shops,
transport, restaurants and major sites. We felt very
safe in the neighbourhood and often walked back to the
apartment after a show uptown, with no worries about
safety. We loved the size of our apartment even though
we were out most of the day and well into the night - it was
wonderful just to have closet space, a couple of chests of
drawers, space to put all the shopping, 2 toilets, 2 TV's,
and a couple of lounges to relax on. Also, the staff
was very helpful and on one occasion they happily allowed us
to send an email to our kids from their office as we hadn't
found an internet cafe that day! We would happily
recommend this location and property to any visitors to new
York, and will definitely book it on our
next trip.

We could not have been
happier with our accommodation and would readily recommend
it to any of our friends, 2
Midtown South at 31st
Our apartment provided
all the freedoms and comforts one would expect of a fully
equipped home, combined with the luxuries of a top
hotel (such as concierge, reception, cleaning and bar
facilities), and all at a great price. before going to New York we
considered one night in a posh hotel for the luxury of it,
supplemented by four in eh apartment. Little did we know
that all five spent at the apartment would be so
good.

Hi The 2 Midtown South at

VERY conveniently situated for all our sightseeing
activities/shopping. Staff were very helpful at all
times.

Dear Martyn
2 Midtown South at 31st The apartment was spacious, clean
and well presented, although the air conditioning was a
little noisy. It was located very centrally with easy access
to uptown and the village, so perfectly placed for all of the
activities we wanted. The staff at the apartment were
extremely friendly and helpful, and delivered service without
any fuss at all. We took our two sons and they were able to
move freely in the apartment as well as safely around the
apartment block. Your staff were excellent through the
process, and booking was very easy.
Finally, I am hoping to run the New York Marathon in November
and will definitely book an apartment through you.
Regards

We stayed at 4 Midtown East at 49th and thought it was great. Its a
quirky old building like many in New York with hissing
heating and poor double glazing which makes it noisy, but
that's New York (they plan new double glazing soon anyway
for the purists). The apartment was clean and simply but
well furnished with loads of room - great when you have two
kids with you. Some NY friends visited us there and said it
was double the size of their on apartments! Its an odd
feeling as you buy into self catering but its more like an
hotel with towels changes daily, beds made, breakfast put in
the fridge and the dishwasher loaded and turned on for you.
The staff are very pleasant and helpful to limit of their
brief - for more outlandish requests (like flex on checkout
time) you need to talk to the manager but she is great and
really helpful. Thanks also to you Angie, you were a great
help sorting the cots and a pleasure to talk to.
