Actually KathyWdrf is correct, the E train was rerouted last weekend for track work. It was running on the F train's 6th Avenue line all last weekend. That means it crossed into Manhattan at 63rd Street, rather than at 53rd Street and missing the hotel by 10 blocks.

That of course didn't help you out at all, since they closed the 53rd Street station and provided no substitute service.
