Hampton Inn Manhattan/Times Square Central

Midtown, New York

Star rating

The hotel

With Manhattan’s all-singing, all-dancing Theater District literally on its doorstep, Hampton Inn Times Square Central is perfectly placed for bright lights and city sights. Shops, dining, shows, iconic buildings: it’s all on hand, with the two block stretch of eateries known as Restaurant Row just six minutes’ stroll away. If you’d rather eat back at base, the hotel’s convenience store has snacks, drinks and pre-packed meals. There’s no unnecessary fuss or frills here, but there are plenty of freebies: there’s the free hot breakfasts each morning, with classics like waffles; there’s the free WiFi; there’s the free tea and coffee on tap, day and night, in the lobby; and there’s the free in-room movie channel, for any nights you can’t get Broadway tickets.

I had the best stay at this hotel! The staff at reception was so friendly, the room was great, the breakfast each morning was so good. The bed was very comfortable and I slept great.

Stayed at the Hampton Inn Manhattan for few days while visiting NYC. It was a good hotel.

Comfortable hotel placed near Times Square wich is a big plus. The only minus for me was food, but it’s ‘couse I’m a picky eater. And also hotel had a close subway station wich makes it easier to travel in New York City (Taxis are really expensive here, especially ubers).So I think 4 stars is perfect.
