We have just returned from NYC and stayed at the Crown Plaza Times Square for five nights.

The location of the hotel is perfect for exploring NYC. Many of the main attractions are within walking distance of the hotel and it's also right by several good subway lines to enable you to explore at will.

The room was spacious, clean and well equipped. The bed was so comfortable that I've already been online to find the same one for our own bedroom!

We did not use many of the hotel facilities, partly as it was soooooo expensive to eat or drink there. For breakfast we were recommended the Eddison hotel cafe a two minute walk away on 47th Street. A huge breakfast for two including a tip should some in at about $15... bargain. A similar breakfast in the hotel would set you back nearer $50!!!

For food and drinking in the evening I would head for 9th Avenue (Hells Kitchen) where there's loads of choice. We found an excellent bar called VNYL on 9th. The staff were superb and very friendly. A beer or glass of decent wine at the bar during happy hours (4-7) was only $4 which is an incredible bargain for NYC. They also did great food. The placed seemed to be a hot hangout for locals and we could see why. Go there, you'll love it.

My only minor gripe with the hotel was the check in desk. The room was not available until after 1500 hours, along with everyone else waiting to check in. As a result there was a huge queue after 1500 hours which a little tedious. There were only four staff checking in and desk space for at least three more. I must stress, this is a minor gripe but after a long journey I could have done without it.

As for noise, we did not find it to be a problem. We were on the 18th floor overlooking Broadway and although the traffic noise was noticable, we both slept soundly. My wife is very light sleeper . If you really struggle then they do provide ear plugs, otherwise you could pay for a higher room which might help. Personally I would not worry as you'll be so tired from exporing NYC!

In summary, can't really fault the hotel and would return in a moment. « less
