Hampton Inn New York Times Square

8/10 Good

"Escogí una habitación con vista a la ciudad y solo podía ver un edificio pegado. Los elevadores son bien lentos. Pero por lo demás estuvo bien"

Hyatt Grand Central New York

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t say enough good things about the management team at this hotel. We had an issue with our original reservation, and they handled it with professionalism, kindness, and genuine care. Instead of making us feel like just another booking, they took the time to listen, quickly found a solution, and made sure we were completely taken care of. Their willingness to go above and beyond turned what could have been a stressful situation into a wonderful experience. It’s clear that guest satisfaction is a top priority here, and that level of customer service is hard to find. Because of the outstanding management, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would absolutely choose this hotel again. Highly recommended!"

Hotel Edison Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"I am a frequent traveler to the city and this is one of my go to places to stay. I love it for a perfect centralized location for Broadway theaters and plenty of options for restaurants nearby. The hotel is historic which I love, its modernized but still with the historic art deco elements throughout from main areas to rooms. A bit of old New York right in the heart of the city. The rooms are clean and quiet with comfortable beds and spacious bathrooms. The WiFi is good. The attached restaurants-Bond 45 and Friedman’s-are both convenient options with good food. I would like to see mini fridges as standard room amenities and smart tvs for allowing streaming as if you are in the room the viewing options are limited. However overall this is a great place to stay and I will stay again."
