Q.Does Hotel Giraffe speak my language?

Languages Spoken at Hotel Giraffe currently are Albanian, Armenian, Czech, Slovak, Romanian, Spanish, Hungarian, Polish, and of course, English.

Q.What do I need to know about your credit card procedures?

Guests must provide a credit card to the hotel at time of check in to guarantee the hotel charges. We recommend you do not use a debit card for this. When you arrive and register, we must get authorization approval from your bank or card issuer for the amount equal to the room and taxes due for the stay as well as an additional $100 per day to allow for incidental charges during your stay such as phone service, room service, valet service and more.

Hotel Giraffe is a smoke free hotel. Guests who wish to smoke must go outdoors. Our Rooftop Garden is also available when it is not booked for a private event. There is a $250 clean up fee for anyone who breaks this policy.

Q.Is there an age requirement for checking into Hotel Giraffe?

Yes. Hotel Giraffe requires all guests to be at least 21 years or older in order to check into the hotel. All guests will be asked to provide a credit card and valid form of ID upon arrival. Children are always welcome, but they must be accompanied by an adult who is 21 years or older at all times.

Q.Does Hotel Giraffe allow pets?

While we love our furry friends, our hotel is very small and unfortunately, we do not accept pets at this time. Guests that need service animals for some extra help are more than welcome to bring them along.

Q.Can I request a quiet room or a high floor?

All of our rooms are surprisingly quiet. Our windows are double-paned, and face either 26th Street or Park Avenue South. Each floor in our hotel has the same room layout, so depending on which room you have booked also determines which street you are facing. Although our first priority is to accommodate your room type, we keep in mind your request for a quiet room or a high floor. Since we are a small hotel or only 72 rooms and 11 sleeping room floors, please do not be disappointed if we cannot fulfill all requests.

Q.Do you offer Laundry/Dry Cleaning Service?

Absolutely! We offer same day dry cleaning and laundry service for articles handed in before 9:00am Monday to Saturday. Laundry/Valet bags and forms are available in the bedroom closet.

Q.How can I book a group stay?

Any booking of 5 or more rooms is considered a group and must be reserved by our Sales Office. One of the team members would be delighted to help you!

Q.How do I get the best deal?

The easiest way to make sure you get the best deal is to book direct! If you see a better deal through an online travel agency, let us know. We will always make sure to offer the best rate possible.
