    I am just back after a fabulous if not cold trip to New York where we were lucky enough to stay at the Hotel Edison. I would like to share my thoughts on the hotel with you. The Edison hotel was built in 1931in true Art Deco style it is situated on 228 West 47th Street just half a block from Times Square and one block from restaurant row. A few steps in either direction and you can enjoy the great theatres of Broadway so the situation of this hotel is perfect. From our bedroom window we could see Times Square. Check in We arrived at the hotel by taxi from JFK airport and were immediately ... more

    Advantages Advantages Right by times square

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The view wasn't great

    This Febuary just gone I was lucky enough to jet off to NYC with my school. We stayed at a hotel just off of times square, it was a great hotel (considering it was 2 stars). Rooms: Although they weren't huge, they were just about the right size. With two double beds, a big cabinet with a TV in it, bedside table and a chair there was still room for 3 of us girls and our gigantic luggage! The room was quite dark luckily the lamps could be turned quite bright. now importantly the beds..... they weren't actually like sleeping on a slab of concrete, I actually enjoyed sleeping in them and also they ... more

    Advantages Advantages Fantastic Location, Great Service, Helpful Staff,

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Only the View

    I stayed at the Edison Hotel in New York over New Years 2005/2006, and had a wonderful time. Although my first impression of the hotel was that it was just an ordinary building with lots of rooms like so many others in New York, but that opinion soon changed when I entered the hotel. The decor was nothing short of delightful, bright and colourful, with paintings, mirrors and furniture completing the set-up of the foyer area. The staff were extremely helpful on our arrival, and this was soon proven as the room that we were given initially was the wrong one. 1 phone call to reception and within ... more

    The Edison Hotel, New York City: Built in 1931 This glorious hotel is located at 228 West 47th Street. Here I will write up a short review upon my experience in the hotel last year. Location: as previously mentioned situated in one of the most dynamic sections of New York City 228 West 47th Street, Directly in the middle of New York which means little walking distance to wherever you may want to venture. Rooms: Depending on what type of accomodation you are looking for, the Edison will be sure offer it to you. Personally our room was slightly better than standard due to us being on a work trip ... more

    The Edison Hotel, Is a clean basic hotel, that doesnt cost to much money and is in the centre of Times Square The Hotel: The Edison is located on west 47th street and Broadway and is literally steps from Times Square, Not even half a block! As you enter the lobby is is large and elegantly decorated. The checking in staff were lovely, polite and helpful. A bell boy carried our bags into the lift and showed us to our 7th floor room. We entered the the room which had 2 large double beds for two people, it had a chest of draws and a closet to put all our things there was plenty of space, although ... more

On 228 West 47th Street just half a block from Times Square and one block from restaurant row also either direction you'll have Broadway so the situation of this hotel is perfect. when checking in i was immediately greeted by friendly staff. as usual i thought a lift would take ages and we where on the 7th floor but suprisingly the lifts came quickly. on arriving at the room i was a bit disappointed with the view as it was off a back of the street and became noisy in the morning with lorries ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Clean, Good facilities, Great location

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Lounge small, Busy, sofa bed uncomfortable

    The edison hotel in time square is a good hotel overall. Starting with the location, I can't complain, It is a 20 second walk to the heart of times square and easy access to most places on manhattan. Inside the hotel, the reception area is quite good, very busy as it is New York but also because there is a diner connected to the hotel next to the reception, The lounge is tidy with comfy sofas but it is very small and no food or drink is allowed in, which is dissapointing if you want a coffee and relax. The shop is good, sells nearly all kinds of souvenirs and sells I ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages great location, clean, big rooms

    Disadvantages Disadvantages sometimes noisy

    The Hotel Edison is right in the heart of the Big Apple so first off, perfect location! I stayed on about the 4 floor - i was with a big group of people but 4 of us stayed in a room with 2 double beds, as shown in the one above and we had ample room; they are of a really good size. It is a little noisy seeing as you're right up and close to the action, but what do you expect when you're staying in the city that never sleeps!! All staff I came across were very friendly and it appeared they took security seriously, there was always someone on the door. There is a 24 hour deli literally right ... more

    Advantages Advantages Rooms are spacious, clean, fresh and everyone is so friendly.

    Disadvantages 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 we took a shower in the morning and after a long weary day. They provided us with big white fluffy towels to use after our bath and shower and ... more
