A beautiful building with a brick façade, built in 1901, the Milford Plaza has all the outward signs of a quality hotel. The disappointment is big once you enter the facility. The general setting is quite cold and impersonal, like the lobby mezzanine, with its decoration from the 80's. Besides its size - 1300 rooms housed on 27 floors- the Milford Plaza has few facilities and offers the strict minimum of amenities: a shop, a weight lifting room, and a porter service. Here you will find no room-service, no laundry, no business center, no rooms for the handicapped. In short, nothing to draw crowds, but nevertheless correct if you are only looking for clean and well-located accomodations.
6/10
As for the rest of the hotel, the rooms do not overflow with charm. The decoration is neutral, in green and pale yellow tones. They are nevertheless comfortable, clean and have a standard range of equipment: television (22 channels), telephone and individual air conditioning. The lack of a minibar and safe ( free at the reception desk) is regrettable, as well as an average soundproofing. The bathrooms, old fashioned with a white tiled floor, have a bathtub but no hair dryer.
5.75/10
The hotel has a restaurant and a bar both managed by independent owners. Both of them offer a decoration without originality and basic American food. They are open from 11 am to midnight.
