I booked this hotel in mid-January for 2 nights in order to see a concert at Lincoln Center. The location is quiet and has lots of wonderful restaurants and shops nearby, including the shops at Columbus Circle just a short stroll away. I checked in 3 hours early and there was no problem with this, and was also given a... more

We used to live in NY and came back for a weekend to see friends. The Park Central has a good location, and offered a decent rate. That's about the extent of the good. When we arrived, the front desk clerk, Angela, was incredibly rude. We were early, and she told us a room was ready. About 10 seconds later,... more

Park Central NY is in an ideal location, just steps from Times Square, Central Park, and so much more. Other than the location, there's not much going for it. During our visit, no one welcomed us to the hotel, the doorman and bell captain were nowhere to be found, and the front desk clerk was disinterested. It was a quiet... more

We stayed here for 4 nights at the beginning of Dec and as this was my first visit to New York I really wanted it to be special (plus it was our 3 year anniversary). We had originally booked the Hotel Pennsylvania but after reading so many terrible reviews we had to find somewhere else, so we found the Park... more

I stayed four nights in early January for business. The room was booked by a colleague and I was honestly horrified when I saw the room rate...I figured we were staying in a dump for that rate. :'} But, this hotel is a favorite of some of our traveling companions and was highly recommeded. For the money, I can't imagine... more

We selected an "all-in-one" package deal to include breakfast, free self parking and 30% discount at the hotel bar. The accomodations, food were fine. The location is great. The hotel is very centrally located close to everything you want to see as a tourist. The hotel staff had no idea about the promotion package which we found on their website... more

I was looking for a nice hotel located centrally in New York City, close to Central Park, Columbus Circle, and a subway line. Park Central seemed to be a perfect match to my needs, and with an advertised online price of $99, how could you not love that, right? I had read reviews on Hotels.com and although some thought that... more
