My husband & I just got back from our first trip to NYC - an anniversary getaway without the kids. This hotel was fantastic for the two of us. The rooms were small, but never claustrophobic. They were well appointed and extremely clean. The bed was so comfy! The staff was friendly and helpful. We loved the chilled bottled water offered on each floor. Housekeeping was prompt in getting our room cleaned each day. They always only left one washcloth, but we knew from reading others' reviews that there was a linen closet available on each floor for extras.
We always felt secure in this area, even on the weekend, when there isn't as much foot traffic. Security officers were very visible. The subway stations for the 2&3 train and for the 4&5 trains are very convenient to the hotel. There is also a great place for bagels, sandwiches, and salads next to Starbucks on Wall St., less than a block away. Also a very convenient, easy walk to Battery Park to catch the ferry to Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Easy walk to the Brooklyn Bridge, as well as to the World Trade Center Site, Federal Hall, South Street Seaport, and other lower Manhattan points of interest.
We had a fantastic trip and would happily stay here again!

We spent two nights at this hotel in a double room on the third highest floor (can't remember the number!) and were very satisfied.
From the fire exit plan, our room appeared to be the smallest on our floor, but was still far more spacious than I had expected given location/price etc. Room and bathroom spotlessly clean (as to be expected).
Bed very comfortable, free water bottles next to the dispenser on each level useful (as we were budget tourists) and didn't acquire a taste for NY tap water whilst there. The extras in the closet next to the water were useful too (irons and ironing boards, pillows, blankets, coffee, tea, sewing kits etc). It was also good to have a proper hair dryer in the bathroom rather than the ones attached to the walls you sometimes get.
I was disappointed that the room only had a coffee machine and not a kettle - I drink tea and the machine won't give me the necessary boiling water - but I understand this to be standard in North America.
Free internet fantastic - one computer in the club room better than the other though!
Staff on the front desk were very useful in helping us book excursions, give us information about transport etc. Can't be faulted.
The location was good for us as it was near a number of underground stations and was quiet (we stayed over a weekend) so the room wasn't disturbed from external noise. Unfortunately, we could hear people when they talked outside the lifts which was somewhat annoying.
We didn't eat at the hotel as the restaurant timings didn't match our schedule.
If/when we return to the city, we will use this hotel again quite happily and have already recommended to friends that they do so as well.

My 17 year old daughter and I stayed at CQ Wall St for 10 days, and we loved the hotel. It is great for business travel to NY where you stay out during the day. The rooms are small but very efficiently planned out. I loved the laundry room where we can do our own laundry anytime. (hotel provides soap, etc.) Also the hotel had a directory of restaurants where they do free delivery and tickets could be charged to the hotel! Overall, although the hotel has small rooms, it is very convenient to subway stations and dining places. Our Lady of Victory Catholic Church is down the block from the hotel, and there is a pharmacy as well as a grocery across the street. Hotel staff was very helpful and friendly. We definitely will stay there again in the future.

I was in NYC last weekend on the way back to Kansas City a business trip in Boston. I had never stayed at a Club Quarters before and was not sure what to expect. Upon arriving the staff was very kind and I had no issues with check-in. When I got to my room I was pleasantly surprised. Although small compared to other hotels, the room was very nicely appointed and efficiently arranged.
Oddly enough, the "King" bed was actually two twin-sized beds pushed together like they sometimes do in European hotels. I'm not too picky when it comes to beds, so I didn't mind, but some people might not like that. My only other point of dissatisfaction was the fact that I did not receive my requested wake-up call and therefore missed my flight after waking up 1 1/2 hour late. If I would have received that wake-up call I would have rated the hotel perfectly.

We stayed 1 night at the Club Quarters Downtown. We really enjoyed this hotel & found it to be a great choice for NYC lodging.
We did have a difficult time finding the hotel (as others have commented), however, there was construction & 2 of the streets our mapquest directions had given us were completely closed. it seems that it would've been easy to find if those streets were open.
Parking we ended up finding for free on the street (Cedar St) just a block down from the hotel. We were there on a weekend & there is no charge for parking during that time.
The room was spacious (in NYC standards) & super clean. The computerized hotel check in was fast & easy. We used the complimentary hotel guest computer area to check into our flight with no problems. We got great use out of the free bottled water!
We didn't use the subway, but a cab was only $8 each way to the village/chelsea area. We were also an easy trip back across brooklyn bridge & up the LIE to LGA for departure - we were back at the airport in less than 30 min.
I got a great price on priceline, so not sure if i'll ever get such a good rate again - but i'd definitely recommend this hotel again!
