Hotel Barrière Fouquet's New York

This is just an incredibly beautiful hotel that feels luxurious without being over-the-top. The food is excellent and was a highlight for us. We had breakfast every day and one dinner as well. We also had drinks at the cocktail bar off the lobby, which is a hidden gem. The service was incredibly friendly and attentive throughout. The location is a little remote, but once you get there you won't want to leave.

We stayed here over the weekend and enjoyed every minute. The rooms are impeccable and so are the linens and toiletries. We enjoyed the Brasserie for brunch which was top notch. We plan on coming back. Service though is not the same as in Paris. The staff needs some French intervention.

Wonderful hotel and perfect stay! Been there in July with my teenage daughter. We both LOVED our stay! The room was beautiful, the bed was super comfy and the shower was great. It was very quiet, which is very important for me. The hotel is elegant, the decor is beautiful and shows really good taste. The staff is discreet and friendly and met all of our expectations. Location was great, quiet and safe, but still close to everything we wanted to do in Tribeca and the Village. I am very very picky and would rarely give a 10 for any place I stay, but the Fouquet was just perfect. It wasnt cheap, but was worth every penny.

Beautiful place Amazing place I loved everything about it I would recommend this place to anyone & I love all amenities.

I stay at super lux hotels and was excited to add fouquets to my list but I’m sorry to say it wasn’t what I had hoped. I post reviews only when I see serious areas for improvement from a space and this hotel has some work to do outside of the design. Great location. Quiet. The hotel is in fact beautiful and new and well designed and it has a private club feel to it which is nice. Room was decent size and lots of light too. But the rooms are lacking the amenities a hotel of this caliber and cost should have. 1. No steamer in room 2. No complimentary mini bar snacks at all (very odd usually with lux hotels there are a few or the hotel gifts you some in a welcome basket of some sort). 3. The provided in-room hair dryer is so cheap and horrible (all lux hotels I’ve been to have high end hair dryers - Dyson, t3, GHD). 4. Turndown service is barely anything. They move the throw pillows, put out slippers (in the bag but don’t undo it for you) and close the curtains. They put two bottles of water on the same side of the bed. They don’t tidy up. They didn’t take our used cups, didn’t place fresh towels out, didn’t clean up the vanity at all (usually housekeeping will organize my vanity items, wrap up cords, fold towels, etc). Speaking of housekeeping, they are often chatting in the hallways while working and it’s pretty loud and annoying. Also if your do not disturb isn’t on they will literally ring your doorbell at 8:30AM to makeup your room. It happened to me. While everyone is very friendly, the service can be lacking. Waiting 30 minutes for a cocktail or one-hour for food is not acceptable regardless of being in the bar, rooftop, or restaurants. But one of the things is that if you’re not a celebrity or some sort (even D-list or micro influencer) while you get treated very nicely (everyone is friendly) you’re not going to get the same service or speed of service which in NY I rarely see so this felt weird. I also witnessed several times that they clearly save many tables for possible “celeb” walk-ins (they tell others the tables are reserved or they “don’t have enough staff” and then a semi-recognizable person shows up randomly not even staying at the hotel and suddenly the table becomes available. Meanwhile they are turning away paying guests. For over $2000 a night the issues above are not favorable. It’s a cool spot but for the cost it’s lacking a bit.

I booked a getaway with my wife but had to cancel due to getting sick. They issued a credit for $1300 but had to be used within 6 months. NY law requires credit not to expire within a 7 year period. These people will steal from you. You would think they'd be smarter. Horrible. Go elsewhere!
