Hotel was an excellent find. I stayed with my wife and another couple (two rooms) and the Affinia Manhattan was in an excellent location as Penn Station is so central and the hotel is just a short walk to Macy's, Times Square etc. As other reviews state for this hotel, the rooms sizes are excellent - we had a queen... more

Its location, half a block down from Penn Station is ideal and a short walk to Macys and the Empire State. If its your first visit to NY, you could not do much better. The LIRR along with the Airttrain from JFK to Jamaica arrive across the road, even with a heavy load, it is very acccessible. It was my... more

The location of this hotel is amazing! We walked everywhere. Taking the Airtrain and LIRR from JFK for only $10.75 per person instead of a $50.00 cab ride and being able to get off at Penn Station and walk across the street to the hotel was priceless! Our room looked nothing like what is advertised on the hotel website. If... more

stayed in a 1 bedroom suite- 2nd highest floor- view of empire state from bedroom- great location, just a few blocks from times square- walked everywhere- would definately stay again more

We booked this hotel after reading about it on Tripadvisor and never having been to New York before we did not know what to expect. It turned out to be a gem, great location, right in the middle of all the action. As said before, after a long trip, the bed was heaven 6 foot wide and really comfortable. The... more

I stayed here on a business trip recently. After looking at the website, I was excited, since I hoped to feel a bit pampered during my stay. My room, however, was depressing and looked nothing like the photos on their website. Truth be told, I felt like the victim of a bait-and-switch. Reading other posts, I now see that they... more

If you like to sleep, go stay somewhere else. This hotel is very near a fire station and there must be at least three fires per night in NY and all in the middle of the night. The windows in the hotel are poor and you can hear people talking loudly on the streets at 3 am, not to mention... more

I booked this hotel for relatives visiting from Europe and I had really mixed feelings about the hotel rooms. One was a room with two beds: beautiful decorations at the walls, new furniture and a lot of space. The other was a room similar to a studio (kitchenette with flatware, bedroom, living room with a sofa bed) but not particularly... more

This certainly isn't a bad hotel, but it just suffers in comparison to other Affinia properties.The Affinia was offering specials when we booked, and the Manhattan was $30 less than the Dumont, where we've stayed before (and loved it). Since the Mahhattan was kitty-corner from Penn Station, and we were flying into Newark (it's easy to get to Penn Station... more
