Review of The Bryant Park Hotel

We stayed in this hotel 2 times in a few days away...

We stayed in this hotel 2 times in a few days away and on both occasions we had a view deluxe. Nice room, quite spacious with views of Bryant Park beautiful, beautiful also very spacious bathroom with separate shower and tub, though the view overlooked the building in front (though we had always closed curtains). Very comfortable bed, quiet room both times (11th and 8th floor) despite the deluxe view overlooking the park and the street. Welcome chocolates every day, molton brown products, fast free wifi in the room. Hotel location perfect for visiting New York, just steps from the public library, 5 minutes walk from time square, empire state building, central station, 10 minutes from the top of the rock, restaurants and market opened 24/7 very close. In short, perfect hotel!
How then 4 stars instead of 5?
Because at the time of the first checkin they have blocked me on my credit card $1,125 as a guarantee and that are blocked still 15 days away , and the same amount the second time, which I find absurd! I pointed out the thing and a guy at the reception has avoided being still lock that amount for the second time.
Overall, however, it remains A hotel perfect for New York and certainly I will be back
