Guests who’ve stayed at 4th Avenue’s pricey Hotel Le Bleu during its first month of operation have started posting about their experiences on Trip Advisor, and their ratings, as Pardon Me For Asking notes, are all over the map. The three reviews on the travel site give the hotel a 3, 4 and 5 (with 5 being the highest possible rating). One guest was totally blown away. The hotel is 15 minutes by R train from Wall St., and the rooms were every bit as visually pleasing and clean as a W. Another, however, was a little less satisfied: I think it is trying to be super hip and urban chic, too much in my opinion…the staff at check-in was a disaster. They are very far from being as polished as the hotel would like to bill itself. Still, not a bad batch of reviews for a property that some have dubbed Hotel Le Doom. Le Bleu’s website currently shows rates starting at $270 a night.

The nipster is in the Hugo Chavez school of promoting free discussion. All who do not agree with him are unpatriotic losers. I think the nipster is off his meds and I think he is the only one writing positive blogs about his eyesore rip-off hotel in one of the ugliest parts of the Boro.
Hey 12:41. Your hooker, did he treat you well?
My parents came to the city to stay 2 weeks ago and stayed at the Beacon Hotel on the UWS, 12:29.
Their room bill for one night, including tax was $412.00.
You may have found a special, but room rates in Manhattan are out of this world.
The people looking to stay at The Beacon and those looking to stay in Brooklyn at Hotel Le Bleu are not the same. It’s describing two entirely different demographics.
For a couple coming over from Berlin for a week, 270 DOLLARS a night is not a whole lot of money.
And from what I can tell, 5th Avenue on the weekends are like 25% people from Germany/Ireland/Amsterdam or London.
12:29. Yeah, guess those coveted brownstones one block away are a rip-off too. (One block = 3-5th Street btwn 5th/6th Ave).
should be called hotel aieuls, because this place will get fat off the grandparents visiting their children’s PS 321 kids — a constituency large enough to support 5 of these fleabags. it looks like the motel in seaside NJ where I banged a hooker after my high school graduation. yeah, it beats an empty lot, but what an eyesore.
Brenda,
Good points all. But you forgot to add: …and we’re kind of ticked off because we realize that five years from now all of Fourth Avenue will be expensive and pretentious and phony-Frenchified.
I checked out their website, the bar/restaurant “on the eighth and ninth floors” (rooftop?) opens in Spring 2008. I guess it won’t be too hard to finding a taxi to go home after dinner.
Rates STARTING at $270/night??? RIP-OFF!! Give me a f*#king break. That’s what the Beacon Hotel on the UWS costs you. And what a difference in location and street appeal. If the Le Bleu’s rates were cheaper, maybe people wouldn’t be commenting on its less-than-scenic locale. Ridiculous. RIP-OFF!!!!!!
Is there some reason that this place looks really nice on its website, and in renderings, and looks far less nice in person?
