Top Central Ward Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Grand Central New York

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very helpful and accommodating. Location was very good"

New York Marriott Marquis

10/10 Excellent

"This is my second time staying at the Marriott Marquis Times Square. I love that the hotel is centrally located. The staff was welcoming and helpful. The room was nice and clean. The only complaint I have is the lack of a microwave. My friend and I had lots of leftovers and no way to warm them up. We took advantage of eating at the restaurant Revel & Rye on the premises and it was amazing food (especially the breakfast sandwich). Levain bakery is one of my many stops I love going to when I’m in the city, So I was excited to see that there’s a Levain bakery inside the hotel. I got my cookie fix almost every day. I had an overall great experience. I would definitely recommend this hotel if you love being in the center of all the action Times Square has to offer. I will definitely be booking again for my yearly trip to NYC."

Hotel Edison Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"I really enjoyed my stay at Hotel Edison. All of the employees were super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and I felt comfortable in there. The grab and go breakfast was delicious, I didn’t expect much but was pleasantly surprised by the options they had. I would definitely stay here again."
