Opulent. Bohemian. And everywhere in between. Bridging the gap between old and new, New York's famous landmark Guardian Life Building has undergone renovations and reemerged as the stylish W New York- Union Square in November 2000. The 1911 Guardian Life building - designed in the Beaux-Arts style - is a magnificent granite and limestone structure with all the exquisite details inherent in traditional European architecture. Designed by famed architect David Rockwell, W New York - Union Square combines the charm of this ethereal historic building with the contemporary W touch. The beautiful park outside extends into our warm Living Room to welcome you. Our signature feather bed with goose down comforters and pillows beckons you. All our rooms are wired and ready to help you conquer the world. W New York - Union Square is all about service and amenities. Whatever you want. Whenever you want it. Set at the northeast corner of Union Square Park, our 270 room, 16 deluxe suite property is the first hotel on Union Square - a neighborhood relished for its fine restaurants, bars, theaters, famous green market, and boutique shops. The perks at this luxury hotel also include Rande Gerber's UNDERBAR, and Todd English's signature restaurant, Olives. Be a part of the cutting edge. Celebrate tradition. Starwood Turbo Net High Speed Internet Access is available in all guest and meeting rooms.

Right in Union Square and within 20 mins walking distance to Soho. Large rooms, clean hotel, great bar and restaurant. If you're looking for a nice hotel in a less frantic, but great nyc location, this is a sure bet.

Okay
Wow - this is not what you would expect from a W. The staff here is rude, the service sub-par. I expect more for the $429 I paid a night. You are paying for location only.
This hotel was great! The service was excellent and the rooms were even better. It had a modern decor to it which made it seem very new. The beds were so comfortable. It was like sleeping on clouds. I recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to New...
