Top Central Ward Hotel Reviews

NEW YORKER BY LOTTE HOTELS

10/10 Excellent

"Thank you! We loved it ❤️"

Night Hotel Broadway

8/10 Good

"Second time staying here. Nice location very close to Subway. Hotel is by no means the plaza but good for the price. Rooms are large and have private bathrooms. Air conditioning and TV are nice and work well. It never did find the ice maker even though there was an ice bucket in my room. Could not call front desk because the phones were not working. Small coffee maker available in the room. Would be nice to have a small fridge and or microwave. Fine stay will likely say again. Walkable to helpful stores like Duane reade. On street parking available."
