Top Grand Central Terminal Hotel Reviews

Hotel Edison Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"The Edison is my favorite NYC hotel. Perfect location and very friendly staff."

New York Hilton Midtown

10/10 Excellent

"This property was very convenient for the event I was attending, which was the tax forum. However, if you’re staying on floors 24–34, be prepared to wait a little longer for the elevators. Car 9 usually takes the longest, and there are signs throughout the property letting you know about the elevator situation, so definitely plan accordingly. As far as the room, I honestly don’t feel the price reflects what you get. There was no coffee pot or microwave in the room, and the mini refrigerator and safe were tucked away inside the cabinet. Now, the customer service was 1,000,000/10! Everyone I encountered was amazing and extremely helpful. Overall, I would recommend this property mainly because of the exceptional customer service and the convenient location. You can also get to Times Square very quickly, which is definitely a plus!"

Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Muito bom"

The Renwick

10/10 Excellent

"Had plumbing issues with are tub. It would fill up over your ankles an then take 3 hrs to drain."

The Westin New York Grand Central

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is my favorite in all of the city. Excellence is always given."

Motto By Hilton New York City Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff, clean room and hotel. This is in the center of times square so if u don’t want to be near the hustle and bustle I wouldn’t go with this option."

The Lexington Hotel, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"Overall, really liked the hotel. I purchased two rooms. One was excellent as it was a nice sized room. The other, the one we were in, was very small and the furniture was a bit worn. The Management, upon my request, was willing to switch us to a larger room, but it was on another floor - away from the other room. So, we stayed where we were. But, all in all, we enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay there again in the future."

Club Quarters Hotel Grand Central, New York

8/10 Good

"Great location. Basic but has everything"

Pod 51

10/10 Excellent

"What a great hotel! Would definitely stay again. We got a room with a private bath, and the price was still very affordable compared to anything else we could find in the area. The rooms are small, but very well maintained. The shared baths are still private rooms, just shared with the rest of the floor (rather than communal-style baths shared with multiple people at once) which we thought was great. The property boasts a rooftop deck with great views, a cozy garden space, an in-house cafe, and an attached restaurant."
