Review summary

Powered by AI
Hotel Triton stands out for its prime location, directly across from Chinatown's entrance and conveniently near Union Square. Guests appreciate the clean rooms and the inclusion of amenities like a happy hour with complimentary wines. While the complimentary breakfast, featuring items such as muffins, waffles and fruit, is generally well-received, some have found the choices somewhat limited. Many also enjoyed discounts at the cafe and ice cream parlor beside the hotel.

unclear mention underwhelming happy hour
I was a little let down by the incidental charge. It wasn't mentioned clearly on the website. also, the happy hour felt a bit underwhelming. it would be nice to see a better selection of fruits offered (maybe bananas or berries instead of just apples) during the continental breakfast. check-in also took longer than expected. I waited until 4 pm for my room.
