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 and the hotel.
Compared with where we dropped other 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) beds and all the usual amenities - TV, ensuite, shower, toiletries, etc.. There are a few shops and delis in the local area and the hotel itself has a rooftop swimming pool - if you can actually manage to find the time in New York to have a swim. We never tried the restaurant in the hotel, but did need to ask the concierge a couple of times for the best way to get to a few places!
Would certainly recommend the hotel for people on a hectic weekend as to an extent you're not in the room long enough to warrant spending a huge amount of money on luxury surroundings. For us, the combination of price and location make it almost unbeatable and we would stay here again for sure!
Advantages: nice hotel close to times square ect Disadvantages: chalk body outline!!!
When we arrived this was our third hotel in new york, i thought it would be cheaper to book once i was ther - i was so wrong, so ended up booking this one from expedia in a internet cafe, in new york. What a hassle.
Anyway got in, thought nice hotel, clean smart apperance , helpfull employes,a swimming pool which is free to use,big room with two double beds,all tastefully decorated .The on suite was large and clean with plenty of marble everywhere.
... ...the window , downwards ontop of the entrance was a body outline-like the police use, of a person spread out ,with a leg in a very unatural position.a bit off putting
mmm. nice , why wouldnt they clean that off ?
The hotel isnt far from broadway , times square,and fairly important to me was the pizza shop opposite- fat sals.(i had pizza atleat once a day whilst there)
I think the price was around 75 pound a night per room.That being a twin with ...

Advantages: so much to do, casinos, shows, museums, shopping , daytrips ... Disadvantages: smoking allowed almost everywhere, can be expensive, spend more than you planned
would be too much to actually mention every single hotel with all its attractions so I will limit myself to the ones I feel are very popular, easy to get to and good value for money. But remember that you will have to pay extra for each and every attraction, nothing is included. There are booklets where you get money off coupons when you buy tickets for certain attractions but make sure you really want to do it. I will mention it if an attraction is free.
Check out the outside of a lot of the hotels, they are works of art in themselves. The NEWYORKNEWYORK depicts the city's skyline with 1:27 scale replicas of the Empire State Building, Brooklyn Bridge and Statue of Liberty and more. And to round it off, they built a roller coaster, the Manhattan Express, to keep people happy. It was a shame that the coaster was not working while we were ...
