Upon arriving at The Hotel Edison after a 3 hour flight delay, I was pleasantly surprised to get a room upgrade from signature king to Marquis Suite on 21st floor, very quiet and the staff was most helpful, this was my first time in New York, I've stayed in many hotels, The Hotel Edison is the best and very friendly.
