At least in watching videos and seeing pictures, the Andaz rooms feel more minimalist in a bad way... lots of white space and cheap looking furniture. I also appreciate the gym/pool/spa area of PHNY, none of which Andaz seems to have?
I have stayed at both properties multiple times and concur with your view: base room to base room PHNY beats Andaz hands down. Andaz wins if you are looking at suites: I love the Wellness Suite, the 5th Ave Terrace and the Empire Terrace Suite.
