According to recent visitors, the best thing about this Trump property – which overlooks Central Park's southern end – is its view overlooking the park. Travelers, including those on business and those with kids in tow, also compliment the staff's efficiency and professionalism. Along with impeccable service, you'll also have plenty of space in your accommodations, which are appointed with floor-to-ceiling windows, fully equipped kitchens and 55-inch flat-screen TVs. But if you're still craving more luxury, head straight to the 6,000-square-foot spa for a relaxing treatment or indulge in a world-class meal at Jean-Georges or Nougatine restaurants. Recent travelers caution, though, that the food and room rates are expensive.
