Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great expierence and location."

The Westin New York Grand Central

10/10 Excellent

"From the time we checked in till the time we left the stay was absolutely amazing. The room was spacious and clean the staff was very friendly. Loved having a great city view. The beds were comfortable the breakfast was amazing this place has all the amenities you would need. It’s close in walking distance to most things but if your not up for walking your right next to the train to get you where ever you need to go. The only disappointment (not really) was the pillow we never could it to be comfortable. Other than that will definitely consider this hotel again for future stay in the city!!"
