Highbridge Hotel

Bronx

10/10 Excellent

I stayed here for 13 nights, The staff was absolutely wonderful, so kind and accommodating can’t fault it, breakfast was always hot and great, perfectly located near to amenities, it’s only 5 minutes walking to a nearest subway, 20 minutes ride to manhattan, Halal food available on a walking distance, Neighbourhood and the area around seemed fined in my opinion, walked around and did not felt unsafe, I would say one of the best cheap hotel in Bronx, recommended 👍

The hotel itself is clean and centrally located for NYC tourism in Times Sq. the staff are great, breakfast included was a good start to each day and the price we got through Expedia was a bargain. Be warned that there is a migrant shelter directly opposite the hotel which can be intimidating as large groups hang around outside - the hotel have a regular security guard and the NYPD are outside the shelter all the time.

Carnegie Hotel

We truly dropped lucky when we booked The Carnegie Hotel, our first time in New York.

The afternoon wine was always fun and the complimentary tea, coffee and snacks were a nice touch. The location is spot on. Central Park is less than 2 minutes walk, the subway is on the corner and Times Square is barely a 10 minute walk. We will be...
