This hotel was great as a base for our busy sightseeing trip. Beds and pillows were very comfy. Room was spotless clean. Shower powerful enough.There are only 2 lifts and can be waiting awhile for space in one at peak times. We had no problems with homeless people hanging about which was one of the things I was worried about. Security in reception… Read more

The Holiday Inn Times Square is in a fantastic location close to so many attractions, subways, Broadway, Times Square and places to eat/drink.

The Holiday Inn Times Square is in a fantastic location close to so many attractions, subways, Broadway, Times Square and places to eat/drink. We arrived in the evening and were checked into a room on the 5th floor, the view was good but not amazing, after realising it wasn't the room we'd booked (city view) I spoke to reception and we were provided the correct room without any hassle. The view from the 35th floor was definitely amazing, we never closed the blinds because we didn't want to miss it! We found the staff friendly and helpful. The reception area was quite small and quite cramped if there's a lot of people checking in/out with luggage at the same time. The room wasn't huge but it was perfect for us (mum and teenage daughter), it was clean and comfortable and serviced daily. Bathroom was adequate with Dove products provided. We didn't have any long waits with the elevators, maybe 5 minutes at the most. Regarding the people that congregate at the entrance of the hotel, yes there were people there most times of the day but they never caused us any issues and we never felt unsafe. Overall we enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again. Read less

What a great hotel. I was worried with other reviewers complaining about the slow elevators and noise but we didn't have problems with either. The longest we waited for the elevator may have been one minute. Think ahead before leaving at busy times....you won't have any problems. It is Times Square in NYC so of course there is some sirens/noise… Read more
What a great hotel. I was worried with other reviewers complaining about the slow elevators and noise but we didn't have problems with either. The longest we waited for the elevator may have been one minute. Think ahead before leaving at busy times....you won't have any problems. It is Times Square in NYC so of course there is some sirens/noise going on at night but nothing that kept us awake or woke us up. I opted for a room up high so we had a nice view. The rooms are small but what you would expect in the city. The Dove products in the bathroom were an extra special nice touch. The only thing we didn't love was the bed. They said it was a King but we both feel like it may be a "NYC" king....if that's a thing. We would both wake up with our feet hanging off the bed...and I'm only 5'5". Definitely seems shorter in length but overall comfortable. Hotel is also close to a lot of coffee shops and restaurants. Best Bagel & Coffee & Liberty Bagels is just a couple blocks away. Also super close to Port Authority along with other entrances to subways. Would recommend if wanting to stay in Times Square. Read less

Not to bad of a room but these do need updating. No space for clothing or storage. Didn’t really feel safe as on couple of occasions we thought someone was trying to get into our room either by main door or our connecting door didn’t report as they just seemed to be teenagers working there. not far from Times Square but a lot of homeless hanging… Read more

Image of the Tripadvisor rating Disappointing . Too cramped for 3 people in one room I did try to buy another room upon arrival but none available .

A tiny room sold at a cost for 3 people with no wardrobe space no room for cases - just no room at all . Add to this the lack of communal facilities after a long day sightseeing plus the horrendous smell of weed and the constant array of vagrants in the hotel frontage . Would never stay again .
