“We enjoyed Hotel Beacon in 2019 and for two stays since, we expect to enjoy many future stays.”
“You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time”. So we all have different expectations and experiences. For the Beacon to maintain its Travellers Choice Award, certainly gives confidence a… more

“Still the best hotel in NYC”
We've just had our 5th stay at The Beacon and it's still the best. It's in a lovely residential neighborhood on the Upper West Side away from all the madness of Midtown but just two blocks from 72nd St subway station from where you can easily get anywhere in the 5 Boroughs. It's so much more restfu… more

“Lovely hotel on the Upper West Side”
Stayed at the hotel for a concert at the theater next door. SO convenient! Furnishings and bathrooms are a bit outdated but still in great condition. Beds are obviously newer and super comfortable. Our room had a kitchenette with fridge, microwave, 4-burner stove, and a small oven, so it’s easy to… more

“Solid UWS Base Camp — Just Bring Your Own Water”
First time staying on the Upper West Side and the Hotel Beacon delivered where it counts. Staff — 5/5. Accommodating and helpful across the board. Well done. Cleanliness — 5/5. Should lead with this. It's the baseline for any hotel stay and they nailed it. Location — 5/5. Subjective, but hard to… more

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
