$200/night average on Expedia. Institutional-style hotel: very big - many rooms, several elevators - all older (permanent-style signs posted "pardon our elevator upgrade" though no upgrading was apparently going on), odd-shaped rooms (was this an office building? my room (805) was about 10 feet wide and 30 feet long), etc. In need of updgrade, but centrally located to the Park/midtown/subway.... more

We stayed at this hotel for 4 nights at the end of April. The location is great - I was very impressed that central park is literally on your doorstep and we could walk to most of the major attractions such as Time Square and Rockefeller.

We went to this hotel for a girl's weekend. Booked the hotel through NYC.com and got a confirmation of the rate. When we checked into the hotel, they said the rate would be $50 more per night. We spoke to the manager who said the reservation was placed, but the price would not be honored. That really seems rather crooked... more

Arriving exhausted at midday from London we were greeted by a stone-faced receptionist who told us that we could not check in until 4pm, which seemed unusual for a hotel. When we queried if there was anything we could do to get a room earlier, she blankly repeated that there was no checking in until 4pm as though we were... more
