We stayed at Hotel Scherman on a family trip to NYC, and the two-bedroom suite (Room 402) was absolutely perfect for us. It was surprisingly spacious and spotless, with a comfortable living area, kitchenette, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a large outdoor balcony. The kitchenette was well equipped with a Keurig, a small fridge with a freezer, a microwave (in a cabinet), plates, cups, mugs, silverware, and a wine opener. We also loved the rooftop balcony on the 5th floor for the views, and the continental breakfast was solid, especially the croissants and hard-boiled eggs, which we enjoyed every morning. The location can’t be beat: close to great restaurants, shows, Times Square, and subway stations. I would absolutely stay at Hotel Scherman again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to stay in New York City.

We stayed here for one night . This is a small older hotel and it has a lot of character. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The room was on the small side, but comfortable and adequate for a short stay. It was clean , well appointed, and also quiet. The location was great, a short walk to Times Square and Broadway theaters . It was situated right among restaurants on 46th St. The rooftop terrace was lovely . The view was amazing and there were many tables and couches with cushions for use by guests. Continental breakfast, which is included with the room, was very good. The hotel was also very reasonably priced for New York City. We enjoyed our stay and would stay there again.

I absolutely loved this hotel. The staff were perfect, friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The room (306) was just amazing. Had such a lovely feel to it, and the staff had done a great job to make us welcome, with a hand written note and nice ambient music playing. I would happily have spent all day in there. The only tiny criticisms I could point to are the lengthy delay before hot water appeared out the shower, and the breakfast could be a bit more inspiring. But we wanted to have breakfast out anyway so we were not bothered. I will absolutely be back here the next time I'm in New York.

We enjoyed a stay end of December 2025. Hotel Scherman is a beautiful boutique hotel. The desk agents were so friendly, warm and welcoming. We enjoyed the king bed with sofa bed room for 2 nights. Our room was surprisingly quiet and we slept well (even with the window slightly cracked). The continental breakfast was a welcome bonus--the croissants were outstanding! We were steps from many restaurant and bar options. We walked to Times Square (even with the cold December weather, this was an easy short walk) and to a show at the Lyric Theater. Uber ride to LGA was ~30 minutes. Terrific location, quiet boutique hotel nestled in city.

We would definitely stay here again. The facilities in the room were exactly what we needed and the shower was great. Everything was clean and nothing seemed too much trouble. Breakfast which was next door was basic continental but had everything that you would want from that kind of breakfast. Fantastic place.

I stayed from the 17th to 20th of December 2025. It was my first time solo travelling (i’m from London) so it was daunting but the hotel was very safe and the staff made me feel very welcome. As I was solo travelling I wanted to be near everything and the location was perfect for me - short walk to aladdin on broadway, 15 min walk to radio city hall where I watched the rockettes. The furthest I walked was 30 mins to the United Nations but of course it is near the subway if you wish to use that! The view from the terrace at night and in the day was to die for! Despite being 5 mins from times square it was so quiet I had no issue with sleeping!

We recently stayed here and our biggest worry coming to visit NYC was the hotel's cleanliness. THANK GOODNESS FOR HOTEL SCHERMAN!!!! It was incredibly clean. We have stayed in hotels all over but this room was large, like as large or larger than a hotel room anywhere in the USA. It was only 14 min to Times square with my gait and I am slow and have a limp. The Subway entrance is just around the corner. Within the block is some of the most famous restaurants for eating among the famous. It has an incredible rooftop area to share a meal with your loved one- we ordered food in one night and went up there to eat chef's kiss!
