I stayed at the Wingate in NYC for 3 nights in May 2008. We ran into one problem while there but it was taken care of rigtht way.

Since the city is so big it's hard to pick a perfect location for a hotel but the Wingate is in midtown and is very close to a lot of shopping. It is less than a block away from Macys.

We arrived early in the morning and checked our bags with the front desk since our room wasn't ready. We got back to the hotel around 7pm to get our room. The clerk was very apologetic in telling us some bad news. The hotel had been overbooked and since we hadn't come back earlier the last room was given to someone else. The good news was that they booked us at the Sheraton in Times Square and were paying for it. They also reimbursed us for our taxi cab fare to the other hotel. Our first night in NYC was free!

We checked back in to the Wingate the next morning and were happy to find a much larger room than the Sheraton. The bathroom and beds were very clean and the mini refrigerator in our room was a free added bonus. The internet service was also free.

The people at the front desk were very helpful with any directions and advice we needed. The free breakfast was the usual foods but perfect and helped save with costs.

The Wingate is a very small hotel with only 5 rooms to a floor. It's a great location and had very large rooms by NY standards. We couldn't complain about the over booking since it saved us an extra $250. You also get many extra bonuses for free that other hotels charge and arm and a leg for. I would definitely stay here again.

Having been to New York on several occasions and stayed in shoebox hotel rooms, I was thrilled to stay at the Wingate by Wyndham Manhattan Midtown. The room was spacious, clean, well-furnished and reasonably priced. Breakfasts in the morning were nourishing, and the location was perfect for my needs. This hotel is now where I'll be staying from now on when I visit NYC.

Needed a hotel close to Penn Station, resturant and show and this was a pleasant surprise. Wonderful staff and beautiful room. We will stay here again and recommend to others.

Writing this review from the hotel, in the 2nd day of a 5-day stay. Couldn't be more pleased with our accomodation. What has pleased us: Free WiFi internet connection in the room, satisfying all my family's connectivity needs simultaneously. (At another hotel, we would have been charged 3 separate charges for our 3 computers to be connected at the same time.) Free breakfast. Room charge inclusive of tax, which at a different hotel in New York could aggrandize your bill to the tune of another 15%. Two double beds in the a comfortably sized room. Powerful air conditioning. Friendly and professional staff committed to make your stay 100% satisfaction guaranteed. Met fellow guests and had a praise party in the elevator, two families echoing how pleased they were with this hotel.
