Top Central Park Zoo Hotel Reviews

Pod Times Square

8/10 Good

"As advertised, tv was hard to figure out"

Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was pleasant"

Hotel Edison Times Square

8/10 Good

"The overall experience was a good 'minus'... the staff was helpful, location right in the middle of it all, restaurant off the lobby had good food and fun vibe....with that said, the room itself was lacking in a few creature comforts; 1.) it was small to the point that you couldn't even change your mind in it. 2.) there wasn't enough table, and countertop, space for incidentals and toiletries. The one table provided was the coffee maker area and not much else fit. 3.) the was no refrigerator so take home from restaurants sat and were, with no other choice, discarded the following day. 4.) The closet was unusual and I'll leave it at that. 5.) The power went out in our area and when I approached the maid outside our door about it she indicated it happens, with what I perceived as, on a regular basis. It was attended to within 25 minutes. 6.) There was no dresser so we had to mostly live out of our suitcases for the duration..."
