Bentley Hotel - New York New York!!!!
Advantages: Clean, nice rooms - amazing views from roof top balcony Disadvantages: 24 Hour coffee bar was actually a vending machine!!
...Anyway we stayed at The Bentley Hotel for the whole of our stay and overall we were impressed and enjoyed our time there.
**ABOUT THE HOTEL**
The Bentley is a 3 star hotel which was built in 1904 and last renovated in 2002, however I have a feeling some renovation may be going on now as the roof top restaurant has been closed until further notice. It has 197 rooms in total, which range in quality depending on which sort you book. We had a regular ... ...wet and warm!
The Bentley provides quite a few services for it’s guests, which I will tell you about, but we never used any of these so I cannot comment on their usefulness or how good they were.
Laundry/Valet service
Room Service
Safety Deposit boxes
Hotel parking at a charge of $20 for 24 hours.
Children under 10 stay free here but we were lucky enough to be able to leave our son with the in laws for the few days we were there, so it was ...

Great location, comfortable hotel
Advantages: Location location location. Comfortable large rooms Disadvantages: May appear dated and less cool than other hotels
We found this hotel in midtown west as part of a package through Virgin Holidays and ending up chosing is mainly on the fact it was the cheapest hotel they offered somewhere close to the middle of Manhattan. The hotel is on 10th Avenue, only a couple of blocks from Times Square (where broadway crosses 7th Avenue for an idea of street numbers). Would also add that we walked almost everywhere and felt perfectly safe in the streets around Times Square ... ...people off at much more expensive hotels during our transfer from JFK, I don't think we could have wished for a better location for the price. Our , on the 10th Avenue front of the hotel, had views of the midtown skyline, including the Empire State Building. It may not be the coolest looking hotel in town, in fact it looks like a motel from the outside, but it's comfortable. Our room was on the second floor, quite large with two double (or Queen-size) ...

nice place to stay
Advantages: nice and quiet Disadvantages: meals are expensive
me and the wife stayed at this hotel in 2007 and we loved it. hotel was in good area. coming out the hotel and then turning left and down to the bottom of the road and you where at central park.
also on that road few blocks down and you where at museum of natural history, which is a must to see.
in the area was plenty of shops and things to eat. on the corner was a citi bank and then across the road from that was starbucks coffee and resturants.
... ...park and not long we where at the bottom near trump hotel and the apple store.
hotel rooms where clean and very comfortable and we had great view of the city. we found food in the hotel to be expensive and not much choice and you where just better going out for breakfast - lunch or dinner and there was places nearby.
if you needed a drink or small snack, most floors had there own vending machines with cold drinks and sweets.
we flew into newark ...

My Manhatten Madness..
Advantages: Fantastic location, Sights easily acsessable... Disadvantages: Poor maid service....
...agent recommended the Thirty Thirty hotel to us as she had been and stayed so some personal opinions from her and the deal was sealed.
THE HOTEL SELECTION
Apart from the travel agents recommendation we were happy as the Thirty Thirty was ideally located from many of the major attractions, such as the Empire state building being only two blocks away, Madison square gardens, Macys and Times Square.
All of the above attractions were only a short ... ...I have to say the hotel was not fantastic but it suited us as we got to see all of the attractions within four five day time scale and as we were only stopping off to drop off shopping and sleep there we couldn't complain.
THE RECEPTION
On arrival the hotel didn't look as good as it did in the travel brochures, it was very dated on the outside and the fact that there was a busy bar and a tacky souvenir shop either side of a small pokey entrance ...

Dreamy
Advantages: Location, comfort and staff Disadvantages: slow lift - hardly a trip spoiler
Myself and my girlfriend stayed here for New Year, we'd checked it out on their website and on trip advisor. We were not disappointed, beautiful reception area and helpful receptionists. When we got into the room, we were amazed - it looked just like the website. We knew we weren't going to be spending much time in the room, but we had a great night sleep every night, no noise from the street at all. The hotel is close to everything you want in the ... ...mins from times square and about 5 mins from central park and the subway station is right outside the hotel.
I can't recommend this place more highly, i absolutely loved it and the bar on the top floor has amazing views over times square.
Although when we went it was slightly more expensive than normal, i still felt that we got a great deal.
It depends what you're looking for in a hotel and how much you are prepared to pay. This is a reasonably ...
