“too dark”

uxj

Jul 21, 2008

I've booked this to be close to Time Square for New Year's Eve (you need to book a restaurant table to get access without standing in the cold for hours). Food in the hotel restaurant was creative and good. The hotel room was surprisingly spacious, but the whole hotel is incredibly dark - some may consider this stylish, but when... more

Horrible, horrible, horrible. Dark corridors. Dirty carpets, and dirty walls. Noisy very noisy. Can't wait to check out after a night's stay more

“What Happened to the W-It has become a disgusting hellhole”

Jul 15, 2008

I had stayed at the W Times Square a number of times in the past and really enjoyed it, so when my travel desk told me that they had an excellent rate, I jumped at the chance to return. What a mistake!!!! The hotel has become a disgustingly filthy hell-hole. The halls were always a little dark, but now they... more

“Urban cool, but looking tired round the edges”

Jul 14, 2008

Located right in the centre of Manhattan off of Times Square, The W clearly positions itself as the epitome of cool. Certainly, your welcome experience bears this out - the beautiful water feature as you enter, the stunning lounge area on the 7th floor and the genuine easy going and friendly welcome from the staff (who are, of course, way... more

This review will be very short. We were 2 couples and decided to spend a weekend at the W for a birthday event. We get there to check in and the receptionist tell us to come back later because the rooms were not ready yet. We called before coming back and we were told the rooms were clean and the... more

“Stay Away!”

Jun 28, 2008

The room is one of the smallest I have ever seen. They make the Microtel seem spacious. It's hard to pull off the modern contemporary look when the property is so dated. It has that 70's style of "contemporary". The location is unbeatable. The price is outrageous even by New York standards. The only thing positive I can say is... more

“Nothing special”

We stayed at this hotel in June 2008 for a birthday treat for my 21 year old daughter and 16 year old son. Picked the hotel for the location, right on Times Square and thought my daugter might like the modern space age theme. Booked two rooms intercommunicating. Booked 'spendid rooms' for a treat, on arrival at reception was offered... more

“One of the best hotels in Midtown”

Jun 22, 2008

I was booked in this hotel by Starwood Corporate after my original stay at the Sheraton Manhattan at Times Square went all wrong (see my post there for full details.) Having stayed at many W hotels in the past, this one ranks up with one of the best. The suite I was in was absolutely beautiful. It had a very... more

The past few years we stay at the W-Times Square-used to stay at the Paramount now the W. When it opened;WOW.!! This year it just started to seeem like it needed a bit of work.... more
