i (heart) nyc

So heres the NYC rundown covering the three things I love about the most about NYC - food, shopping and theatre/museums. 1. Food Oh boy did we eat up NYC! With parents in tow I dragged them uptown and down walking hours through the freezing streets to fill my belly with as much possible... After much debate here are NYC's finest... Best Pastrami Sandwich: Katz Deli - no other deli (even 2nd avenue deli) even compared to Katz for their Pastrami on rye. I'm convinced its the hand cutting and th...

Big Apple, big pizza, big sandwich, big shops!

This is it, the last stop before we get back to the UK. We arrived on the 12th (our anniversary) from San Francisco on a fairly bad flight (no meals, no drinks, no choice of films etc. on a 5 hour flight!), so top tip - don't fly on American Airlines unless you have to. We were therefore starving on arrival - so at least we had come to the right place as every meal in New York seems to be enough to feed you for a week. We had little time for much more than checking in then heading out to what...

Historical Traveler Reviews of Park Central Hotel New York City

A Grand View of Times Square :)

from A TripAdvisor Member
My wife and I checked in for one night on the weekend of June 7, 2003. An efficient, but dour fellow behind the counter greeted us, and considered our request for a "room with a view". Coming up to our 21st floor room, we were not dissapointed. Not only was the room spacious - with a desk and plush reading chair (not to mention the extra pillows, blankets and bathrobe in the closet) - we were treated to a magnificent view of Times Square, right down 7th Ave. The washrooms were clean with plenty of towels and the beds were of above average comfort and king-sze to boot. The fridge leaked, but it was a mere annoyance, nothing to get too excited about. Park Central is close to everything - perfect fro urban walkers. The only drawback was an in ill informed and rateh rude lady at the tickets/transportation/concierge desk - once again a minor annoyance. And all this for $125 right off the hotel's own website. Highly recommended from two seasoned world travellers.

Worry free room! worry free cost!

Listen! If you are not super picky, a micro-manager, a neat freak or on prozac ...etc...You will like the Park Central. I am a born and raised native of los Angeles and have stayed at the finest hotels in new york and Los Angeles and Park central is of course not the finest but it is great if you want to stay in a nice hotel with nice rooms eloquent looby and classy staff. It is a quality hotel the is walking distance to times square, across the street from Carnegie Hall, walking distance to Burberry etc... I promise you you wont be disappointed!

Good find

from A TripAdvisor Member
After reading many reviews of numerous hotels in NYC we decided to stay here in March 2003. Great price $125 through the hotel website. Location is great for Times sq & Central park. Also right on the subway. Large welcoming art-deco style lobby. Rooms were clean with large modern marble bathrooms for NYC. Would stay here again.

Would stay here again

from A TripAdvisor Member
I stayed here with a friend for 4 nights in April 2003 using it as a base to explore the city. Having based my decision on reviews which I read on this site, I was generally pleased with this hotel. We had a standard room with two double beds which was fairly spacious and quiet as advertised. Having booked by internet I expected some problems but my booking was handled efficiently. Staff were pleasant without over doing it. Location is excellent, close enough to Central Park for a walk before breakfast - wonderful !, plenty of restaurants and shops, and also a subway station. The only downside was the view from our fifth floor room. This was my first time in New York and I would have no hesitation choosing this hotel again because of it's value for money. I did not get a chance to eat in the hotel.

Nice stay, good price

from SLM941
We stayed there 4/24 to 2/28 and really liked the hotel. I was a little nervous since the room was prepaid thru Hotels.com ($116/nite, 10% off for 3 nites), but it was fine! At check-in, we were upgraded to a "business suite" without even asking. Only wrinkle was the room is dominated by a large TV console/minibar at the foot of the king bed, so that created a pinch point, but the room and bathroom were a reasonable size (for NY), recently remodeled and very clean. It's a great location for visitng and the subway stops right on the corner. We're already planning our next trip and will stay again!

The heart of new york !

Stairs would have been faster

from A TripAdvisor Member
Yes, this hotel has a fantastic location, steps from central park, times square and fifth avenue. unfortunately, my time was cut short visiting these places waiting for the elevator to my room. this is a very busy place so when one did arrive, you kinda had to push your way on to it. there was no "oh, you were here first, go ahead of me."

the rooms were medium sized, beds were really close to the floor, but things were clean. the staff were a delight.

Great location, good service

from A TripAdvisor Member
The location cannot be beat if you want to be near the theater district, central park, midtown. Our room was very adequate, clean and nicely decorated -- very modern. Not a big room, but we didn't spend a lot of time there, so it didn't matter. Nice king size bed, in room safe, toiletries provided. Restaurant downstairs was good. The staff was great downstairs (no problem checking our bags prior to check-in and after check-out while we roamed the city), but room service a bit slow -- would be great if the room had a coffeemaker. I would definitely stay here again!

Understated but nice.

from A TripAdvisor Member
Fed up with the smallness of W New York, moved to Park Central. Had to pay $230 for the sudden move, though I heard they have more attractive internet values.

Room was reasonably spacious (30sqm), the bed comfortable. Atmosphere was fine if low on the hipness factor. It is a price where one would expect a 5-star service in any other city, but in Central Manhattan this is probably a bargain. Much recommended for a (somewhat) budget-conscious traveller.

Stayed in Sept., 2002

Great Location

from A TripAdvisor Member
Location was key, close to Central Park, 5th Ave. and Times Square. Rooms were average sized and clean. Staff was friendly, but front desk was very slow.
