Top Central Park Zoo Hotel Reviews

The Pierre, A Taj Hotel, New York

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing!!!!!"

ROW NYC

10/10 Excellent

"This was the perfect hotel for my trip! Only a block away from Times Square, and so close to the subway transportation and other stores that were useful. I walked to Central Park straight down the same street on the hotel. The property was clean and accessible, and the bathroom on the first floor was always useful for coming back to the hotel throughout the day. I will definitely be booking my future stay here again."
