Top Central Ward Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton New York Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Great view"

New York Marriott Marquis

8/10 Good

"For this hotel to be a 5 star, it needs a face life. The rooms are too outdated. The location is perfect, right next to Times Square. I think it is overpriced for what you get but Hey it's NY, everything is expensive. No free WiFi in the rooms was disappointed. The staff were great, warm, helpful."

ROW NYC

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were wonderful from the moment you walk in. Joe at the front desk was amazing he saw a long line to check in and he immediately help everyone to pre check and guided us where to take our bags until the room was ready. Joe he is so nice and helpful he goes above and beyond with anything you need go ask Joe. Got a text message that room was ready for us before there actual check in time. Gesenia at the front desk checked us in when we got back from exploring the city. Gesenia was amazing she tells me what floor we would going to be and I asked if it was possible for a lower floor? And OMG!!! She looked and managed to give us a beautiful city view room was perfect location. She was so friendly nice I’ve honestly never been to such a friendly hotel like I’ve been. Row NYC will be my go to hotel. Best location in Times Square."
