Safari Tentalow in North America

"We had a wonderful stay here and would definitely stay again. This is a bare-bones hotel, so don't expect frills or amenities, but it was extremely convenient, safe, quiet, and perfectly comfortable for a three-day stay. The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were spacious and clean, if a bit shabby (chipped paint, non-working shades, cheap area rugs, etc.). We loved the historic and charming lobby and stairwells and wish that they kept the historic details throughout the rooms and rest of the hotel (room and bathroom flooring are sadly modern and out-of-place). Fantastic location between Grand Central and Times Square."

"Overall, I’d say the best part about this hotel is the location and proximity to public transportation. That’s a huge plus if you plan on traveling all over the city. Unfortunately, I don’t see myself staying here again unless the price happens to be an amazing deal. I found the staff to be rude and unhelpful. The bathroom, specifically the bathtub, was gross. Again, it wasn’t the worst place to stay but I expected better after reading everyone else’s reviews. Maybe I went on a bad week, I don’t know. "

"Amazing stay and best staff"

"I was stuck here during the blizzard of ‘26. It was fine. The room was hot but the window opened. Being unable to manage the temperature in early menopause is my only complaint. Brooklyn Diner was open and the food was great as well as the bloody Mary! "

"It would have been nice to at least have a microwave on the floors. "

"No refrigerator. Outdated but the location A+"

"Great location and great staff. Would definitely return!"

"Room was larger than typical NYC hotels due to it being an older hotel that was renovated. "

"Room need update. "
