.....I considered walking countless miles each day to be all the exercise we needed!
Again, on the 2nd floor is a large, stylish communal Lounge area; with Plasma TV, comfy sofas, New York themed games/books and a complementary coffee/tea making area. And as a bonus every Monday-Thursday between 6pm-7pm there is a Cheese/Wine evening for residents..All complimentary and greatly appreciated!
Upon your return to the Affinia 50 after spending each day out exploring the city, you're greeted on the doorstep by the VERY (almost overly) polite doorman who utters a "Welcome home" to each resident. Gets a little tiresome after a while, but adds to the whole ambience of being in NewYork, I guess!
All in all this was a perfect base for our week in the Big Apple and I'd definitely stay here again. If there's a group of you going over I'd highly recommend...

Advantages: Well situated Disadvantages: Traffic noise
...'t visit except for Niles.
The hotel is well situated for access to all areas, (especially Macy's on 34th Street) buses stop outside the hotel, across the road, there is also the subway at Pennsylvania Station and of course the yellow cabs are plentiful and the lovely doorman, dressed in his all brown uniform and looking very much like a 'mounty' will blow his whistle to get a cab for you, anytime you like.
As much as I loved the Southgate's elegance, comfort and prime location, I don't know if I would stay there again. The continuous noise and lack of sleep did begin to take it's toll by the end of the week and I don't think moving to another room would have made any difference. I don't even know if there is a hotel in NewYork, which doesn't have this problem with city noise.
We stayed as part of a package with British Airways so...

Good choice Review ofHilton NewYork, New YorkCityby
leemrphy
Advantages: Great location Disadvantages: Bus business hotel
...My husband and I stayed at the New York Hilton in Central Manhattan over Christmas and New Year. It is in a superb location - on the same street and only a block or two away from Radio City Music Hall. Central Park is in walking distance, as is Times Square, which is a great place to be over the holiday season!
The rooms were good - very spacious, clean bathroom and the maid service was excellent. The hotel bars are very well used and extremely welcoming, and the American marketplace restaurant is OK, but if you are in Manhattan there are better places to eat than your hotel restaurant! All in all, it was a decent, clean and comfortable hotel and I would recommend it. The only drawbacks are that as it is so huge and has good business facilities, the lobby tends to be very busy. However there is an express check in service and staff...

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
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
Postmodernism, eh? It's a funny old bag of fish. Even the holier-than-thou critics don't quite seem to know what it's all about. They argue whether it's
a) a revolt against modernism,
b) a progression of modernism,
c) both of these and more
or d) more
