excellent central hotel
i toally enjoyed staying here in feb 2012 , so central its easy to navigate to wherever you want to go to . Its right on Times square but still quiet enough that you can get sleep when you need it easily . I went over with a friend this year and we wanted to shop and do all the tourist bits without using so much subway and this hotel allowed it with ease i usually stay on 103rd street so to stay in the middle of Times square was a little worrying at first but you would never know from the hotel as soon as you turn onto 52nd street to go in the hotels revolving doors a smiling doorman is always there to help you then get your elevator straight up to the beautiful open plan front desk , bar and restaurant with giant windows looking out onto Times square a balcony ....which in warmer months i would definately enjoy being on more often ....has loads of seating and we wrapped to enjoy the views before heading out most nights .What with central park 5 streets up and Rockefeller centre 2 avenues over , times square on our doorstep and the no.1 subway line on 50th just 2 minutes away we never had a bored minute or had to plan our travels too much and if you do the concierge service has answers to any problems , brilliant service fantastic stay . The rooms were clean warm and comfortable although with everything so close you dont spend a lot of time in them and the housekeeping is fantastic , i will be returning next year with the kids as i know now that they will be catered for easily in this hotel
