Top Central Park Zoo Hotel Reviews

The Manhattan Club

10/10 Excellent

"Great location! Area is clean and safe!"

Pod Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, great staff, late open bar and 1pm check out time. Amazing!"

ROW NYC

8/10 Good

"Great location for visiting New York, close to the subway, Broadway and MSG. Nothing fancy, very busy big hotel."

Hyatt Grand Central New York

10/10 Excellent

"We had a very nice stay! The hotel was clean and comfortable, and the front desk staff were friendly, welcoming, and very helpful. I especially appreciated the extra security measures, which made us feel comfortable during our stay. The location was also fantastic—being right beside Grand Central Station made getting around New York incredibly convenient. We would definitely stay here again!"

Hotel Edison Times Square

8/10 Good

"No refer in the room - but great location and free or reduced price breakfast was good"

OYO Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"OYO is right at Times Square, so expect noise from the streets. Come for the convenient location, and clean rooms. There isn’t anywhere you can sit down to work on your laptop, and the TV isn’t smart, doesn’t have local channels or a way to connect to the tv. (The HDMI ports are on the back and you can’t pull tv outward). I liked the evening/overnight concierge staff. A more seasoned individual, and sassy."

The Lombardy Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a very pleasant experience at The Lombardy. Location was very convenient for us. A ton of shopping and dining options nearby. Very happy with this pick."

Hilton Garden Inn New York/Central Park South-Midtown West

10/10 Excellent

"Great for a solo traveler. Elevators can run slowly but hotel is clean and pleasant."

The Pierre, A Taj Hotel, New York

10/10 Excellent

"Room: a coffee machine in the room is actually to be expected."
