Ramada Plaza & Inn - New Yorker Hotel, New York City > Reviews

Advantages: Excellent location and well priced for Manhattan Island
Disadvantages: Noisy renovations currently and a bit tired in places, but clean

The New Yorker is in an excellent midtown location with the subway (lines A, C & E) literally steps outside. Being on the corner of 8th Avenue and 34th Street this meant good access to Macy's, Empire State Building, Madison Square Gardens and the Manhattan Mall. There was another subway station one block along 34th Steet which connected to lots of other subway lines. The hotel itself is a bit rundown. It is nothing major in my opinion and you can ...

Advantages: Location, Price, Staff
Disadvantages: Slightly small rooms

We stayed at the New Yorker April 2006. We found the rooms weren\'t huge but enough space for two and extremely good on price.

The hotel is undergoing a refurbishment, but the work was not noticeable to the guests. The "tick-tock" diner is located in the front entrance of the hotel, which was very good for breakfast, with a great service! The hotel location is great, with the subway just outside ...

Advantages: Well placed for Empire State and Madison SG, pleasant hotel
Disadvantages: looking a little tired in places

I stayed here in January 2006 for 4 nights. We were a party of 2 adults and 2 children staying in a double room. The beds are slightly less than double so we had 1 child and 1 adult per bed, which obviously only works with young children. The New Yorker has had a very colourful past, with the some of the very biggest names having stayed there. Ali, stayed there in the early 70's after losing at Madison Square Garden. It has to be said though that ... Read review
