Like many of the previous reviews, I'd agree that location is the biggest plus for this hotel, but all things considered, it was also a pretty good value...for NYC. The location speaks for itself...3 blocks from Central Park, a few blocks from Times Square and the Broadway theaters and a subway station right outside the door. Many shops, delis and... more

My boyfriend & I stayed at this hotel on June 08. We were in New York for my 30th birthday and we were delighted with the hotel. It was spotlessley clean and the room was huge. We were on the 25th floor facing 7th avenue but the only noise we could hear was that of the air conditioning unit. The... more

My husband & I just returned from a week in this hotel. I'll be honest after reading the latest reviews about this hotel I was TERRIFIED to stay at Park Central. I even looked into changing hotels the day before we left. Ultimately, I am glad that I didn't spend more money to stay somewhere else. We have stayed in... more

I stayed in this hotel a couple weeks ago with my family (Mom and Sister). Here are the pros and cons: Pros: GREAT location (could walk to Times Square, Central Park, etc), friendly staff, attractive rooms and lobby Cons: Room smelled old and musty, WAY overpriced for what you get, small room Overall, it was a nice stay. I'm not... more

I too had some trepedations after some of the reviews here, so we were very pleasantly surprised and relieved to have a different experience than some have had, so much so, not only do we recommend this hotel, but we would book to stay there again. I would like to let you know why..... We arrived earlier than anticipated and... more

We throughyly enjoyed outrwhole stay. The room was clean, spacious, quiet and well air conditioned. The staff were friendly and helpful whenever we had an enquiry -... more

Bad choice, I would not go back. The elevators were broken, so going to and from your room became a hassle. Location was okay – staying near the subway is important for tourists. Not much light in the rooms. Staff were okay – cleaning times were unpredictable and took forever. Room was dirty – mould in the shower, dirty walls,... more

This is usaully not me as I am only interested in the consensus which appeared to be, on the whole it was a good hotel. Here is my balanced and accurate review of the hotel. As... more

If you are thinking about staying here do yourself a favor and DON'T. I stayed at this hotel once last year and I remember complaining about the A/C..they had told me back then that it was a temporary thing. When I recently stayed there in June paying around $420.00/night the A/C was practically nonexistent....it was ridiculously hot in the rooms.... more

My husband and I were in NY for medical treatments. We had booked the Park Central Hotel off their own website to get the 20% off for staying over 5 nights. The first few nights the air-conditioning wasn't working. We were told several times that it would be fixed soon. I had an IV in my arm, so I went... more
