As a very general rule, at this time of the year, NYC hotels can be pretty full on weekends but people seem to want to be in the Midtown and Central Park areas for shopping and to see the Christmas lights and festivities. The Wall Street area can seem very empty on weekends.

If not a member and the stay is long enough/discount good enough it may be worth joining.
With the $160/nt savings (over the HTS (which I do like a lot)) we'll take a lot of taxi's and use the rest for shopping and chow

Also, the subway is right by the entrance of Andaz Wall Street so its easy to get up to Midtown and back.

Has anyone stayed here since this new restaurant opened? It appears Water and Wall has been replaced. Looking at the menu it seems more sparse. No Weekend Downtown brunch on the weekends anymore. Staying here in a couple weeks, just wondering what the Diamond breakfast situation is now? Will they let you do room service again?
The service was pretty subpar for breakfast on my most recent visit, menu was a lot more limited, and never once got a refill on my drink... In all fairness they were having a wedding reception in the main restaurant so they had everyone corralled in the bar area on the floor above the lobby, but I never was told about being able to get room service as a diamond.
Combined with the half empty mini bar I found in my room upon arrival, I'm slowly falling apart from what used to be my favorite NY property.

Anyone have any experience getting an upgrade from a Suite to a large suite? Was considering lobbing in an email to ask, but the custom upgrade is $230 a night--more than the cost of the room. Thanks all.

Andaz Wall Street REVIEW - MASTER THREAD
I love this hotel because it is quiet. I would much rather schlep back from midtown by car or subway than deal with large hordes of tourists running down the halls of the hotel.

As a light sleeper, can anyone confirm if this hotel now has black-out curtains (as opposed to the Andaz 5h ave)?

I got the Andaz Suite and there's no pull out sofa -- but the sofa is extremely large and the 8 year old could sleep on it (they will provide comfy bedding) and then the 4 year old can sleep with you and the wife in the King bed easily. All four will get the nice brekkie (if Diamond) although it has dropped in quality (sadly) over the years...
