Guestrooms. Each of the rooms at the Helmsley Carlton House are elegantly appointed with traditional decor.
was happy at this hotel:
A simply delightful hotel in a splendid location. We booked a couple of junior suites for the six of us, and one of them had a balcony that peered onto Central Park. My only gripe was with the bathroom. It could have used a bit of 'touching up' or perhaps a re-wallpapering. It wasn't dirty, just slightly shabby in spots. Call me picky, I just notice those things. Overall the suites were clean though. I'd stay here again. I was pleased with the overall experience.

was happy at this hotel:
Absolutely brilliant! I've been to about a dozen times and have never stayed in a room so large. that was a huge bonus. We got a room on the Madison Ave side and it was kind of noisy, so we aksed to switch to a more quiet area, and they were most accommodating. Both rooms were rather sizeable too. All in all, this place is well worth it.
