Advantages: quality food and plenty of it, sufficent parking, close to town centre, enconomical - guest house rates but hotel service Disadvantages: few beers on tap, can be too quiet
...I stay at various Hotels and Bed and Breakfasts around the country, presently working in York I have found a very nice
quiet hotel near the city center that doesn't cost a fortune.
The place is called ABBOTSMEWSHOTEL and it is just to the West of York town centre about 8 mins walk.
Advantages.
Approximately £50.00 bed/breakfast/evening meal. A car park that is large enough.
Friendly staff and an excellent evening meal menu with something for everyone.
Service in the dining room is prompt and efficient, checking in/out doesn't take forever as at other hotels.
It really is 8 mins from the town center but is also very quiet, no traffic noise or drunken yobs heading home from
the pub. It appears to be favoured by older guests who revisit every few years and of couse people like myself
seeking quality economical accomodation close...

Sampsons Review ofSampsons Farm Country Hotel, Newton Abbotby
chrisknowelden
Advantages: Friendly, excellent service, comfortable and good location Disadvantages: None!
...Today we (regrettably) returned to London from our very enjoyable stay at Sampsons Farn Country Hotel. We loved the setting - wonderful walks and great locaion. The room was very comfortable and the staff extremely friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. We had a fantastic meal one evening in the restaurant - compliments to the chef. We have only ever seen food prepared that looked anything like we had the pleasure of eating, and that was on TV but to eat it as well was something we shall remember forever. It was fabulous. Very tasty - cooked to perfection and served by friendly, smiling staff. We loved the friendly atmosphere and will definitely be returning and recommending Sampsons to all of our fiends and family. Infact we found nothing at all to fault about Sampsons!...

Advantages: Cheap and right on Times Square Disadvantages: A bit on the shabby side
...Hotel Carter is often referred to as a hostel but I wouldn't go that far. Although it's not exactly New York luxury the room was en-suite and was clean and a good size, if a little dated (the carpet on the wall is somewhat different!). The Hotel didn't have a restaurant but there are plenty of places to eat nearby. If you are just after a cheap weekend in the Big Apple you can't get a much more central location than this Hotel which is just off Times Square and for the money compared to other NY hotels I think it is great value. Especially since you'll probably spend very little time in hotel room with the rest of New York to explore!...

The New Yorker is in an excellent midtown location with the subway (lines A, C & E) literally steps outside. Being on the corner of 8th Avenue and 34th Street this meant good access to Macy's, Empire State Building, Madison Square Gardens and the... more
We are just back from 4 nights in The Wellington Hotel. We booked it back in Jan'07 thru an online hotel booking site (I may have mentioned it in other reviews) We also booked flights directly with BA thru their website.
We had stayed in NewYork about more
If you want to stay in Central New York then this is the hotel to book. It is actually IN Times Square! It's a huge modern hotel with over 45 floors so some of the views are great. There is a bar at the top which is a lovely place to have a drink,... more
