Top The FRIENDSTM Experience Hotel Reviews

Hotel Edison Times Square

8/10 Good

"Room was clean, but needed updating. We paid extra for a balcony, but there were no chairs, so we did not get our money’s worth. If you want an upgrade, go for another suite option. Location cannot be beat, so overall the rating is good. We walked to theaters and nightclub. We could not get into the rum house because we did not have a reservation. The hotel breakfast at Friedman’s was a limited menu, but all was very good. French toast was outstanding. You need reservations for breakfast at Friedman’s also, especially in weekends. "

Margaritaville Resort Times Square

2/10 Terrible

"BEWARE!!! After our 4-night stay, we were charged a $500 smoking fee. We are non-smokers and 100% did not smoke in the room. I spent 10 days and made 7 calls attempting to resolve this issue with hotel management, but they refused to remove the charge. Their position was essentially that they did not believe us, despite us repeatedly explaining that we do not smoke. What is most concerning is not just the excessive amount of the fee, but being charged for something we did not do and then being treated as though we were being dishonest. The hotel claimed we “smoked” in the room approximately 30 minutes before checkout after a 4-night stay, which makes very little logical sense. I initially tried to handle this professionally and directly with management, but since they were unwilling to work cooperatively, I feel it is important to warn future guests. Be aware that you could potentially leave your stay with a significant charge for something you did not do."

PUBLIC, an Ian Schrager hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Public is situated in a great location near China Town. Little Italy, and SoHo. It’s a pretty fast cab ride to Midtown and downtown. I didn’t get a chance to try the restaurant because it was closed. The café was pretty good with breakfast food, fresh juice, and coffee. Housekeeping was very accommodating and the room was clean and orderly. There are things in the room that are comfortable for example thats a bit awkward, for example, there was no place to hang a towel in the bathroom area, no Kleenex, and no hairdryer, so I had to request these items. There are no hooks so you have to place it somewhere close to the shower, which is very tiny. The design is very much like the Edition hotel near Times Square, which I’ve stayed at several times and I enjoy because there is an amazing restaurant and bars. It’s very minimalist design. The table could use one more chair and better quality seating/chairs. I did not get a chance to sample the rooftop bar, but I will have to do that on my next journey or the club for that matter. The front desk staff was very helpful in anything that I needed. Andy, the front desk manager was also very accommodating. I typically stay in upscale properties in Midtown and this hotel really held its own against bigger brands that are more luxurious. It has a younger vibe, which was fine. Overall, a very comfortable stay."
