“Pathetic downgrade”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed December 10, 2012

I've been coming to this hotel for years on business and pleasure. I''m in the travel industry, and I have Platinum status with over 250,000 points. Don't come to this Sheraton or you'll be SO disappointed! And they were charging over $450 a night!! They cut out all decent food on the Club floor (no pastry, no fresh berries or fruit, no individual cereal boxes or oatmeal). They ran out of bagels and muffins on a Sunday 1 hr before closing. Everything is pre--made. 90% of the Club floor users were complaining and agreed they wouldn't come back, They cut the hours of the Club Floor to end at 10am on weekends -- which is 7am for West Coasters (why would I want to get up that early on a vacation??) They ran out of stirring sticks and cream for the rooms (we asked for it to be delivered -- but it never showed up) I've probably stayed 50 times there through the years -- and now I'll stop. Marriot, Hyatt, and Hilton have MUCH better club floors. If I was Starwood, I would REALLY question this manager's decisions. I stay at Sheratons in many other Cities, and this one is absolutely pathetic in comparison. People were actually bringing in their own food to the Club Fl!! Save your money and go elsewhere.

Room Tip: Club fl best -- but very small rooms.

“Good hotel, good location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 10, 2012

I stayed here with a friend on the last leg of my holiday.
The Sheraton is well located for Times Square, the Theatre district and sightseeing generally in New York.
Staff were very friendly and helpful giving us directions and advice on subways, taxis etc.
Since there were so many restaurants around the hotel we ate in a number of these to get a flavour of NY.
Our bedroom was a reasonable size, well appointed and cleaning staff did an excellent job keeping it clean etc.

Went for the Thanksgiving weekend - perfect spot to get to anything in the city - steps from times square and any subway! Great service and directions. Clean room - very quiet although the lobby was packed!!! Perfect location for everything!

pghlawyer,

We are glad you found our location to be perfect for everything during your NYC stay. Our lobby can become very busy during the holidays, there is nothing like the holidays in the Big Apple! Thank you for your review.

“Good Hotel - Small rooms”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 10, 2012

We had several events at the Rockefeller Center and Radio City Music Hall, so the Sheraton New York was a great location. The rooms were very nice, but just a bit small. The Front Desk staff were excellent and very helpful. Its a good place to stay if you're going to be in the Times Square/Rockefeller Center area.

“Great location for your first trip to New York !”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 9, 2012

We stayed here for 4 nights in October and absolutely loved it!

Like all Sheraton's, the Sheraton New York Times Square was fantastic! Being so well located, we felt we were in the best position to see New York for the first time.

The hotel is right above a subway station, so we found ourselves easily being able to come back if we forgot something or just wanted a quick rest during the day. It is also within easy walk distance of Times Square, some great restaurants on 9th Ave, Central Park, shopping on 5th Ave, plus the David Letterman studios which we were lucky enough to get tickets to in the lottery draw.

The wi-fi is only free in the hotel lobby which is unfortunate as it is quite a busy area! Although we would prefer free wi-fi in the room, we were able to make do by using it on our way out / in via the lobby.

Rooms are nice and large with modern furnishings, and the beds are perfect for a great night's sleep after a long day site-seeing!

Overall we would definitely stay here again for a short trip! However now that I feel I know my way around I would probably consider staying closer to less touristy areas e.g. Soho.
