We stayed in a Two-Bedroom Sutton Suite as a family of five and overall had a pleasant experience — the suite was clean, spacious, and comfortable for our group. The kitchen was well stocked for our needs, making it easy to handle breakfasts and snacks throughout the day, and housekeeping was attentive, keeping things tidy and even managing the dishes in the sink. It's a nice property and one we'd consider returning to. That said, there were a couple of areas where the experience didn't quite match the hotel's premium positioning. The suite showed the typical wear of a well-traveled property — scuffed wall paint, some damage to the door trim, and a tub that had clearly seen better days. This kind of wear is understandable in a family-friendly hotel, but it felt a little at odds with the upscale image Sutton Place projects. A focused refresh of the suites would go a long way. The bigger disappointment for us was the pool area. With only 4 or 5 loungers available, seating was extremely limited — and on every visit, nearly all of them were occupied or reserved with towels and personal items, even when the pool itself was nearly empty. The result was an unwelcoming atmosphere; walking in as a family, we consistently felt like we were intruding on a private space rather than enjoying a shared amenity. For a hotel at this price point, the pool experience fell noticeably short of expectations. Overall, a comfortable stay with genuinely attentive housekeeping — but some investment in the suites and the pool area would make this property much easier to recommend without reservation.

Terrible experience. We booked a suite, which was not cheap, but the air conditioning was so loud that every 10 minutes the walls would literally start shaking. It was impossible not only to sleep, but even to simply stay in the room. We ended up having to leave because of the unbearable noise.
I had booked a room at the hotel to celebrate my daughter’s birthday. Unfortunately, I was laid off just prior to us leaving and had to cancel our trip. When I cancelled the trip the cancellation policy said that I could cancel no charge up until the day of our check in. I then received an invoice for over $500, where the hotel stated that it is their policy to charge one day stay. When I inquired further and requested that the charges be explained to me (I did not receive a breakdown of how the charges were calculated), I was ignored and no response was received. Not only was it devastating to loose my job and have to cancel a trip my daughter was looking forward to, but then hit with a charge that could be waived by the hotel, left me in tears. I’m sure the hotel itself is lovely however the customer service is non-existent and heartless. April 23, 2026 - Thank you for the response to my review. I can assure you that no one has contacted me. I have no missed calls and no voice mail messages from anyone at your hotel. I feel that this response is a standard "we tried, you didn't pick up" for the public eye. I did speak to my credit card company and they were more than helpful. They will be disputing this on my behalf and have already reversed the charged. They were wonderful and this was all within a 15 min phone call. I wish that I had made the call to them first instead of wasting over a week trying to deal with you.
The staff was very polite and friendly, the lobby was clean and nice. The suite we stayed in was lacking in cleanliness for sure. There was children’s dirty hand prints on the mirror the baseboards were gross and the wall paper was peeling off the wall. For the price of this hotel you would think the rooms would be cleaner. The walking distance to anywhere downtown was great.
Had a great stay at La Grande Residence. Location is fantastic and within walking distance of lots of great shopping and restaurants. As a family of five we appreciated the extra space that the rooms provided. Had a maintenance issue that was handled promptly. The staff were all excellent and helped elevate the overall experience. The bed was super comfortable and a welcome relief from the somewhat mediocre beds we’d had previously on this trip. Highly recommend.
