  • Very convenient to theatres, which was the purpose of our trip.
  • Rooms are fairly small.

“This hotel is right in the middle of the theatre district, convenient to Times Square. The rooms are smallish, but very comfortable with large-size bathrooms. In spite of the noisy area, the rooms are quiet. The decor of the lobby area not on the ground floor, is a bit weird but okay, while the decor of the rooms is pleasant and masculine, good for business travelers.”

  • Maids were noisy in the morning hallways.

“Excellent, will recommend and will return.”

  • Convenient to attractions, very clean, and excellent staff.
  • Nothing.

“Close to subway, shopping, and entertainment. I was traveling with my 86 year old mother who enjoyed her visit immensely. Her reaction to the hotel was excellent.”

  • The
    front desk was awesome with a lost item of mine.
  • Nothing.

“Great place to stay. I have stayed at other locations in New York city and this ranks among the best. I accidentally left 2 expensive items in the safe and called back later that morning and front desk found the items and shipped them to me in Texas. This is the first time I have ever left something behind that was actually recovered for me at any hotel”

  • Really liked the layout and the location. Bathroom and bed were exemplary.
  • The television service was marginal and did not reflect it's surroundings.

“I really liked the hotel and would recommend it to others. The location and offerings make it highly desirable.”

“We were pleased with the comfort of the bed. Suprisingly, we did not hear any of the traffic or noise from the street. Always a big plus when staying in NYC.”

  • The location was great.
  • Staff was less than helpful and they billed me twice.

“Room and location where great. Resturaunt view was amazing. Not a great value, but worth it asked for early checkin at 1pm, told no problem, get there and room not ready till 4pm! Then they charge me twice for the room. When
I called you'd think
I inconvieneced them.”

  • Great location, friendly service.
  • Small room.

“Great hotel at a reasonable rate. Clean, wonderful location in Time Square. Friendly service, comfortable bed. It's a smaller hotel than I initially thought, but not small in how you are treated or what you get for your money.”

  • Recently renovated and gorgeous! Great beds like sleeping on a cloud. Art Deco, European ambiance.
  • Food overpriced and kids didn't like anything they ordered.(3 meals).

“Recently renovated, European-like, Art Deco feel. Felt like stepping into tranquility-warm and cozy ambiance. The beds were ultra comfortable and again, the décor was beautiful. I traveled with 4 children, and they loved it as well. The location can't be beat. The view from the dining room is the best view in Times Square- picture perfect!”

  • Friendly staff, attractive decor, fabulous location!
  • I can't think of a thing!

“After a nightmare hotel experience the night before, we were thrilled to arrive at the Renaissance!! The staff was very concerned that we be comfortable and have a good time. They arranged early check-in and took care of parking/luggage without any of the hassle that is sometimes there. The decor was very cool and the room was a pretty good size for a NYC hotel. Moreover, it was very nicely appointed and well arranged for comfort. We had a fabulous dinner at the hotel restaurant - stunning view of Times Square & great food & atmosphere as well! There again was wonderful, personal service! My children were ready to move in!!”

  • The staff was incredibly courteous, professional, and very knowledgeable. Kudos to the concierge and his dinner recommendations.
  • Loved everything about the hotel except for the heavy traffic in Times Square that made it difficult to get to the hotel by car.

“I didn't know what to expect from the Renaissance Hotel however after arriving, speaking to the staff, and seeing the room, I was most impressed. I would recommend the Renaissance Hotel to any and every traveler.”

  • Good location in Times Square
  • No faclities, such as sauna, etc.

“Very disappointed at the front lobby in terms of its space and design. It looks like a Howard Johnson.”

  • Nice sized rooms, comfortable beds, nice baths, friendly staff.
  • No restaurant /bar mid day.

“Staff gave me early check in. For NYC, good sized rooms, nice beds, nice baths. Great location. Good all around, and I have been in a lot of NYC hotels.”

  • Location and staff.
  • The lounge area is not inviting and needs to be improved.

“Functional.”

  • Room and hotel was awesome, fantastic location.
  • Tried to give me a room with a very poor view so
    I asked and got put up in a great room.

“Good luck getting parking! $54/day and a no in and out privileges.”

  • Very clean, modern amenities and great location.
  • Staff was indifferent. If one does not say hello to them, they probably would not greet you on their own inititative.

“Great location, very clean and modern hotel. Rooms are typical New York size, but beds are very comfortable and have a good quality bedding. Would highly recommend this hotel as it serves its purpose; right in the middle of Times Square and easy accessibility to everthing. A person doesn't come to NYC to spend the entire trip in their hotel room -- but this hotel is perfect to come back to after a long day of sightseeing. Has great views too!”

  • Beds were great - very comfortable.
  • Breakfast was good but very expensive.

“Loved the funky style of the furniture. Staff was incredibly nice - wasn't sure I was really in New York! Room was very large for the city and the price was great.”

  • The location and décor.
  • Check-in staff (only) is a little rude.

“The location of this hotel is amazing. "It is" the intersection of 42nd and Broadway in Times Square and across the street from the Minskoff where The Lion King plays. Regardless of the location of your room in the hotel, you have a view of Times Square. The decor is very art deco and beautiful. The price is well worth it!”

  • The location was the best feature, especially for New Years.
  • We knew the hotel was under construction and we had to wait to check-in longer than we wanted.

“Overall the hotel was in a great location for the Times Square New Year's festivities. They even had an area reserved for guests. The construction that was occurring in the lobby was a little inconvenient but the rooms were clean and comfortable.”
