Park Central Hotel New York

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommend! Great location. Super friendly and helpful staff. Very clean and beautiful rooms."

Aura Hotel Times Square

6/10 Okay

"When I made the reservation, the picture was quite different from the room. It was tiny. The bathroom smelled of urine and the tub had rust stains. We brought this up to the front desk & told we couldn’t get another room. The only thing they could offer was a refund & we could go somewhere else. Trying to find a last minute hotel in that area with a reasonable price wasn’t going to work. They only offered a can of Lysol for the smell. We were suppose to receive a complementary beverage card at check in & didn’t receive it. Had to come back to ask for it."

Millennium Hotel Broadway Times Square

4/10 Poor

"What amenities? No pool, no in room refrigerator or microwave, no in room coffee maker or even coffee in the lobby, no gym, no lounge space or gathering space. Comfortable mattresses and good showers, except the mattresses constantly slid on the frame and the shower backed up a little. Great staff and location. I don’t understand the resort fee - this was not a resort in any way. This was not worth the costs."

Hampton Inn New York Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is at a great location. The amenities are great. The food at the morning buffet is very good. However, the room was super small. Smaller than a cruise ship. Suggest you adopt some of their space saving tactics. Make the bed raised so suitcases can fit underneath. Their remodel was ongoing in the lobby. The lobby was well organized"
