Top New York Hotel Reviews

Hotel St. James

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing staffs at the Front desk!"

YOTEL New York Times Square

8/10 Good

"No Ice in the vender machines on any floor"

Hotel Edison Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"The security was very good. The location was excellent. "

Empire Hotel

8/10 Good

"The rooms were rather dark, though they had lamps. It was really hard to get ready in the mornings because there was no natural light coming into the room so we had to sit under the lamps in order to do our make up or stand right in front of the window in order to see ourselves. No way to ventilate the room, so the room stayed pretty musty because the shower is not far away. It just felt like we couldn't breathe in there even though the AC was running nonstop. But beautiful hotel great staff. Clean and safe area."
