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 ...

Review of City Club Hotel, New York City

A palatial palace.
Advantages: Large rooms by NY standards, good service, quality furnishings. Disadvantages: Expensive.
...business trips to Zurich and New York. Whenever I as in New York, I tried to get a room in the New York Palace Hotel and fortunately most of the time I was successful. So this is a hotel I have stayed at on many occasions. By and large, my experiences were similar each time; I always stayed in the same standard of room and I always received the same standard of service from the staff. The New York Palace, or the Palace as I call it, it takes up the ... ...many of the highlights of New York are within easy walking distance. The Rockefeller Plaza is moments away and it is an easy walk to Broadway and Times Square too. When I managed to escape the office, I would sometimes take a stroll north up Madison or 5th Avenue, browsing the shops and it is then not much further to the Frick Collection (5th and 70th) or the Metropolitan Museum of Art (5th and 83rd). Alternatively one can easily head south to the ...

In The Middle Of It All
Advantages: Great rooms, Great Service, Great Internet Access, Great Breakfast Disadvantages: Noisy rooms, No free food/drink in the rooms
...York, I will use Hotel Metro again, they are the cheapest one that we could find, but which still looked decent enough. They provided an excellent service and you really can’t beat that. The rooms were small, but lovely still. Well worth the money and it provided us with a great place to stay at the end of the day. Pictures
If you take a look at the picture in the middle, I’ll talk you through what they are of. The top left picture is a picture ... ...you can see is the rooftop terrace. To the right of that picture you should be able to see the empire state building at night. This picture was taken from the rooftop terrace and I thought it was pretty beautiful. The other three pictures are pictures of the lobby and breakfast room of the hotel. Very posh don’t you think? (C) Kirsty Thank you for reading and rating and if you get a chance, please tell me what you think. Kirsty ...

Location, Location, Location
Advantages: Great Location and Price Disadvantages: Needed modernising (and now has been)
...bookings, we stayed in a hotel quite far away from mid town. The second time I visited I went with my mum, who had never been and I'd decided we needed somewhere central, although Manhattan isn't massive you want to be near all the touristy bits and pieces. So after looking around I decided being in the thick of it probably wasn't an option as it was all quite expensive. Then I found the Pennsylvania, opposite Madison Square Garden's and Penn Station, ... ...We booked the hotel with a flight and all in all paid £450 each for a return flight with Virgin to JFK and 5 nights' accommodation in the Pennsylvania, I think it was very reasonable, you may have your own thoughts. ~The actual hotel~ It has 1700 rooms and is the fourth largest hotel in New York City. The hotel was purpose built in 1919. A grand 90 years old. The front of the hotel is flat and gives the impression that it is a square building, it ...
