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 ...

Howard Johnson Inn, Albany
Advantages: easy to get to, on main hotel/recreation strip into the city
Disadvantages: dated, noisy
My wife and I stayed here for 1 night in early September 2006.
The place is easy to find, on the busy main hotel/motel/restaurant strip on the outskirts of the city.
The hotel has the appearance and feel of a motel from the moment you drive in, from the reception area to the rooms. there is plenty of parking and we found no problems getting our car right outside our room.
Our room was on the ground floor at the rear of the premises. the room was ...
...hairdryer, coffee maker etc, however everything looked a bit old and tired. I was concerned about security, as the doors and locks did not appear too substantial, and being round the back of the premises with the door leading directly on to the car park, I felt a little uneasy. There may have been CCTV monitoring the car park however I could not see any.
Some of the hotel appeared to be under renovation, with a complete wing out of service. Hopefully ...

Edison hotel New York
Advantages: Rooms are spacious, clean, fresh and everyone is so friendly.
Disadvantages: No disadvantges, loved this place.
I visited this hotel with my school in February 2007 and there was a group of 40 with 5 teachers. The group included boys and girls, there were very welcoming when we arrived after a long flight from England and getting up a 4.30. They allowed us up to our rooms, which where very spacious and comfortable. They had big double beds, which could have easily have fitted three people in. The bathroom was spacious and clean with lovley hot water for when ...
...long weary day. They provided us with big white fluffy towels to use after our bath and shower and layed out complimenatry gifts for us to use.
The hotel is just round the corner from Times Square which is buzzing all the time with the bright lights.
I recommend you visit this hotel, with its friendly staff and comfortable beds. ...

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 ...

Wellington Hotel : Adequate but not great
Advantages: Location, food available downstairs
Disadvantages: Room was small and needed updating
I stayed at the Wellington hotel on my second trip to New York, and the decision was based on a recommendation from the Travel Agent. There were a few people in reception when we arrived and it took about half an hour to be checked in. We had booked one double room and one twin room for our party but were told that there was no twin rooms available so we would have to have a double with a foldaway bed, which someone would bring to the room. When ...
...on it as it seemed to be about 30 years old and ready to collapse at any minute. Fortunately I was staying with my sister so it wasn't really a huge problem that we shared a double bed. I wasn't really happy with the room itself, it was small and the view was of an apartment building not even the street. It was in dire need of updating in the bathroom with rusty pipes clearly visible underneath the sink, and the tiles needing either replacing or ...
