Sheraton New York

Great for the price

by CosmicGirl303

We were a bit skeptical before checking into this hotel because of mixed reviews online. We ended up more than satisfied. It's not the fanciest hotel, but our room was clean and it had great views (from the 15th floor). It was easy to get around the city with so many subway stations around. Also, it was nice to be so close to great shopping, central park, and rockefeller center. Only a few blocks from Times Square, but it was nice to not be right in that area...to me, it's a tourist trap! :) Would definitely stay there again. If you can find a deal, I suggest this for your stay.

• Pros: location, close to subway, friendly service

Nice location, but small rooms.

I have stayed at this hotel many times. It is right in Times Square. I like the little hotdog vendor on the corner.

Anyway, the hotel rooms are very small. This is not a 4 star hotel even though it says that it is a 4 star. I would say more like a 3-3.5 star at the most.

The food is way expensive. I suggest ordering out and using delivery(dot)com

There is a great bellman there who name is Eddie that goes out of his way to help anyway he can. He is a great asset to the hotel.

I would say stay here if all your other options fail.

• Pros: Right in Times Square
• Cons: Small Rooms, VERY EXPENSIVE FOOD!

Horrible place to stay

by DrewbiesGirl

This was the worst hotel stay I have ever had, and I am certainly disappointed given the standard of Sheraton hotels that I have come to expect as a frequent traveler. I arrived in mu room to be greeted by the smell of smoke in this "smoke free" hotel. After informing the front desk, I was told there was nothing that could be done, but they may be able to move me to another room in a couple of days. I visited the Duane Read store a block away and got some Febreeze and opened the window to air out the room. Upon my return, I attempted to adjust the temperature controls, which were broken. I was able to adjust the "fan" speed on the wall unit, but not the temperature itself. Two days later I was provided with a fan, and in the meantime was miserable. Even with the fan, it was still hot enough in the room that I had a great deal of trouble sleeping throughout the stay. Eventually, a call was placed to the manager, who assured me an engineer would be up to take a look at the AC unit promptly...I never saw him. Breakfast was ordered the night before and never received. The manager apologized profusely and informed me that he would clear the room service bill to date (not even the equivalent of one night's cost of a six night stay) and upon preparing to check out, found that this was not done either. Customer service was not in the vocabulary. Repeated commitments were made and never followed through with. There are much better hotels in the area at comparable prices. I ave stayed at the Hampton Inn, the Doubletree...and even the Ritz at Battery Park had comparable pricing, none of which I have ever had such issues with.

Do yourself a favor and explore your options.

• Pros: location
• Cons: horrible customer service, non-functioning AC, smokey room,

Decent Stay

by Jeffk

I had a great night's rest in one of the best cities in the world. I always expect the best from a hotel and the Sheraton delivered just that. Thanks!

• Pros: Expected what the hotel delivered
• Cons: Nothing truly impressed

Not the best I've stayed in but nice.

by kellergirl

Everything is top of the scale. I like em more modern and sleek. But this was really nice with good service and attention. I live in NY but sometimes stay in nice hotels.
