When I got to the hotel I really liked it. The lobby was very nice and the check in was very quick and easy. My room was dirty, there was dust all over the carpet, the airconditioning did not work and the bathroom had hair in the tub and there was mold all over the ceiling. I wrote to the... more

Stayed here for a week. Upon arrival, handed cash for accomodation. We were then informed that 14.75% city taxes were not included which cost approximately 200dollars extra. This had not been on our documentation. Room was clean and basic. Location excellent. 5-10mins walk from times square and also near central park. On third day, received a call from hotel demanding... more

Located in a busy-enough part of Manhattan (corner of 55th Street and 7th Avenue). Ten minute walk from Times Square, Broadway shows, Madame Tussaude's, 5th Avenue, Central Park. Has a Subway stop right outside the door ($2 per single trip, very good value compared to taxis. Great place to stay if you're interested in sight-seeing. Would need to get the... more

Park central hotel was one of the best experience i've ever had. The hotel is located in a great location with great views from Time Square. The rooms were clean and every single detail was there. Price very affordable. Customer service was great from the entrance to the people bringing your luggage up to your room. Especial consideration to the... more

I stayed here for 5 nights with my sister and thought it was great. I was apprehensive after reading some of the reviews, but on my arrival I was happy. The shower curtain rail was loose; I informed reception, within an hour it was fixed. I asked for fresh towels every day as there was no where to dry our... more

A friend stayed at this hotel a weekend on Oct, 2009, and shed asked to send some packages to her (totally 7) and she went to Front Desk and Luggage Room and they gave her just one package. I tried to help her calling to the hotel and I talked with several different guys, all of them are very rude,... more

Great location, over the NQR Subway. Found it a good base to get around. Good size rooms, however, the plumbing didn't work in the first room we were allocated. We moved to another room which was much older. We requested a move to a more updated room. We were asked to see a choice of rooms and we moved to... more

Points of Concern 
* Old style NY Hotel implies space-lacking rooms, designed to sleep, or socialize out-of-room and relax in lobby or on-the-town (can be charming for some, due to design, especially on vacation rather than business) 
* No desk in room -- poor design for business travelers (no laptop room)
 * Air Conditioning did not work in all of... more

We liked this hotel...had a room on the 15th floor that was a good size facing the front of the hotel. It was nicely decorated, had a very comfortable king sized bed, seemed roomy from what I have heard about other hotels in NYC. We had a good rate as we booked early and were staying over five days. The... more
