In regard to subway stops, the “legacy”.BMT lines stop at 7th Avenue and 57th Street. You will find the 1 & 2 ex-IRT lines and the old IND A B & C lines at Columbus Circle. Both stops are an easy walk from the hotel. I recommend checking the Essex House webpage for more information.

Also, in regard to an earlier point, I do have the January ‘18 confirmation, and intend to have a candid conversation with the GM, if the FD doesn’t waIve the $25.00 daily fee. I could care less about the “benefits”.
