Inn at Great Neck

I would like to mention Felix the bell person… super super nice and helpful … and Paul at front desk… he gets things done! also housekeeping is lovely and clean! I did encounter a few little not- so-good-things… my sink in the bathroom was slow to drain and was not fixed although mentioning it several times… the sofa in my room was old and not clean looking … needs to be replaced… the sheets are scratchy not soft . they do include a free breakfast on weekdays…. which is a nice surprise… but it’s not great just very very basic and staff allocated to help with breakfast seem overworked and harried… plus the breakfast room itself doesn’t get cleaned up after patrons have eaten and leave… so it’s hard to even find a clean table…

Good location for dining in the evening, good selection of different options close by, close to the public transport, large, comfortable rooms. Very frindly lady at breakfast.

Breakfast was good- would wish sausages were readily available. I do have a concern for anyone eating halal or kosher food as usually they would tend to avoid contact of food such as scrambled eggs with bacon. Bar staff (especially Bria) were lovely and prompt with their services- great Long Island Iced Tea! Housekeeping did well and reception were friendly too.

This stay was for 2 purposes: 1, to isolate my husband from the rest of the family after his trip from the west (to make sure no covid;) and 2) to enable him to continue work from "home" (in this case the Inn at Great Neck. ) The wi-fi was strong and the desk area was very well suited (my husband told me) to being able to work comfortably. The King room was spacious and, being on the 5th floor, gave a lot of natural light to the room. There was a coffee maker and refrigerator in the room which was helpful during long work days. The breakfast was minimal but adequate -- largely due, I believe, to the fact that with covid and omicron still going on, everything was reduced for safety. But my husband had dinner one night at the Inn and said the salmon was delicious. Every safety measure was in place from distancing to masks, etc. So dining was a plesure. Also, I personally had not been to the Inn since some of its earliest days when I took a girlfriend there for her birthday breakfast, Those were (obviously) in pre-pandemic days. And that breakfast was sumptuous and really delightful. I'm confident the return to "normal" will mean sumptuous breakfasts again. Just a word of thanks to the Hotel staff and booking.com -- thanks for being understanding when my husband missed (airline fault, no his) his connecting flight to NYC, so the room reservation had to be altered for one day later arrival and one day later checkout. All that was done easily, so thanks for making that accommodation. The Inn is also in a good place for light shopping and good lunches and dinners - everything is nearby and walking distance to the Inn.

We are visiting friends living in Great Neck, and the hotel is very close to the train station, so the location is perfect for us. The rooms are comfortable and clean.
