Best by a mile for the price
Before we left we were worried about some of the negative reviews this hotel attracted. Well i am here to say they are all wrong and this hotel is a lovely place well located with staff that do care. The room was on the 10th floor and was not one of the renovated rooms, nevertheless it was clean, with a large bathroom and a massive comfortable bed. There was a little traffic noise but thats New York and one of the wonders of our stay.
The hotel is right in the middle of everything with Times Square just a 5 minute walk away. You can see the Emipre State building from the room and you are graced by a number of diners on the main street.
Breakfast let the hotel down a little, $22 for cold meats and cheese but go across the road to Moonstruck and have the best 'Irish' breakfast for a lot less money.
Draw back is the wi-fi but to be fair America is already on 4G and its our phone roaming costs that are idiotic bearing in mind the technology available. Having said that there are plenty of free wi-fi connections about. Starbucks is a good one to mention.
Will we go again.... Yes
Would we stay here again... Yes
Would i recommend it to you ... Yes
If you want posh stay at the Waldorf Astoria. Otherwise you get what you pay for.
