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) ...

Review of Skyline Hotel, New York City

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 ...

Review of Excelsior Hotel, New York City

Pan American

Advantages: Good Prices, Lovely Staff, Good Location
Disadvantages: None

I have stayed at this hotel twice and have just returned from my latest stay. --Cost-- The cost is generally alot lower than other hotels which are in Manhattan. We just paid £500 for a 5 night stay there in a room with 2 double beds for 4 people. --Location-- The hotel is situated on Queens Blvd in Queens. This is around 20/30 mins ride from JFK and around 30 mins into Manhattan. There are quite a few shops and restaurants close to the hotel ...
...15 minute walk on the same road is Queens Mall where there are loads of shops including a Macys and JC Penneys. The subway station is around a 10 minute walk in the same direction. Buses stop directly outside the hotel. Its a pretty quiet neighbourhood and i always felt safe in the day and night. --The Hotel-- Although not new the hotel is in good shape. The reception is pretty roomy with a god few chairs for people who want to sit. There is ...

Review of Pan American Hotel, Queens

Great Experience in Soho

Advantages: Price, friendly staff, free breakfast
Disadvantages: Location for some people maybe

The price of this hotel via Expedia drew me to it but I am SO glad I booked. From the moment you're greeted by the efficient and friendly staff you feel like you've made the right choice. We were greeted daily by the staff and often returned "home" to be offered lemonade or freshly baked cookies. The rooms are modern, clean and with very good facilities. The location, depending on your point of view, was amazing. The surreounding streets are a little ...
...in Soho but it is literally just over the road. A quick walk takes you to the excellent Soho shopping and Tribeca restaurants and also the slightly grittier area of ChinaTown was also minutes away. Subways are close by so it's easy to get to anywhere in the city. Restaurants nearby are amazing... Bubby's, Nobu, Odeon, The Harrison to name a few. We spent 10 days here and the room was easily big enough and comfortable enough for that period of time. ...

Review of Hampton Inn Manhattan-SoHo, New York

Not worth the 4 stars rating

Advantages: Great location, better than a days inn.....
Disadvantages: Not MUCH better than a days inn....... not very clean, so-so service.....

...spent 6 nights at the city club hotel of new york city this summer. I looked at pictures of the hotel and other reviews and I made my choice: Booked it in advance. Well, this was supposed to be a 4 stars hotel but it wasn't worth it. The room were nice and service people were always smiling, but you get that in a Days inn. You don't get more than that. We had loads of luggage and nobody helped us with them. they could barely hold the door opened ...
...Algonquin's personnel than from the city club's, even when I told them I was a customer of their next door competitors..... Location of the hotel: GREAT! You are right in the middle of midtown, where most of the great new york things are. Grand central, Times Square, 5th avenue, St-Patrick cathedral, empire state building, chrysler building, Rockefeller center, all within 5 to 20 minutes to reach on foot. Easy access to subway and loads of restaurants ...
