Loved by Hotel Lucerne guests
"I learned that many windows were replaced with sound barrier glass, so even though we were on the 2nd floor, we couldn't hear the NYC street sounds much at all."
"Very spacious, bright room with a beautiful view."
"Very convenient walk to local restaurants and to the natural history museum."
