🌟 Excellent Service, Stunning Views & a Peaceful Location 🌿

We've just discovered our new home base for NYC trips! 🗽✨ Just wrapped up a lovely family getaway at The Graduate Hotel Roosevelt Island, and it was absolutely delightful. From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed—and were totally spoiled with a diamond status upgrade to a standard suite! 🛎️💎 The location is truly the star here 🌟: nestled on peaceful Roosevelt Island, it's a serene escape from the city buzz. We loved strolling through Roosevelt Park, soaking in the gorgeous views 🍃🌉. While public transport requires a bit of patience, it's super accessible—just one stop on the F train to the Upper East Side, or a short (and scenic!) tram ride to Manhattan. A little extra travel time is totally worth the tranquility and beauty! 🚠🌆 Our room was surprisingly spacious by NYC standards 🛋️📦, and the breakfast at the hotel restaurant was delicious 🍳☕. A couple of small heads-up though: Parking at the hotel is pretty steep—I'd recommend checking if Cornell Tech's lot has space. It's smaller but only $25/day vs. $70 at the hotel! 🚗💸 Also, as part of Hilton's new F&B credit system, Gold and Diamond members now get a daily credit (ours was $18 per person) instead of full breakfast coverage. For two adults and a child, breakfast came to $57, so the credit helped, but don’t expect it to cover the whole meal. 🧾👨👩👧 All in all, a wonderful stay—we’ll definitely be back! ❤️🏙️ #GraduateHotel #RooseveltIslandRetreat #NYCGetaway #CityEscape #FamilyTravel #HiltonHonors #TravelHacks #SkylineViews #WeWillBeBack #SereneInTheCity
