The hotel

You may be in the heart of NYC but you’ll enjoy peace and quiet in a W hotel room. Head to The Living Room, complete with DJs and an extensive drinks list! The hotel’s Blue Fin Restaurant is also highly recommended, and comes complete with a sushi bar. If that's not enough, there's Dos Caminos serving Mexican fare, and a margarita bar! Directly facing the bright lights of Broadway, a dramatic, floating, stainless steel staircase leads the way to a semi-private alcove dining area where guests can kick-back and listen to the music of Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Dizzy Gillespie. A wonderful place to stay for couples, friends and family, you’ll also enjoy the W’s famous Whatever/Whenever service – nothing is too much trouble for the staff, all you have to do is ask!

If you want to be in the heart of Times Square and the theatre District, the W Times Square is an amazing choice as it literally abuts Times Square at 46th Street. From the hotel you walk out the front door, take a right, and in 20 steps you are in Times Square. The staff was very friendly, and I had a great corner room overlooking the River. This was my second stay at the W and it was a great experience. The bed was great, the bathroom was clean. I moved here after having a brutal one night stay at the nearby Sheraton Times Square (Marriott Bonvoy hotel). Don't even consider that hotel for many reasons. The 7th floor lounge area and bar area were nice. I didn't have the breakfast at the downstairs restaurant so I can't comment on that. Note that if you want a coffee maker in your room you have to request it. Read less

The W series of hotels are .... I'll be kind .... eclectic and unique. Don't expect luxury, although there are notable exceptions. South Beach and Taipei are both quite nice; however there are many others that are simply .... dumps. I'm not sure why, but the brand thrives. This property is located square into the middle of Times Square, with all of its hustle and visual accompaniment. Sirens sound off all through the night, and you can hear every bit of them .... even on the 52nd floor. Trust me, you HEAR them. To begin, the hotel has fairly low ceilings. That is always a non starter for me. It gives you a confined feeling. Certainly not a feature of a luxury hotel, which Marriott likes to portray it as. We stayed in one of their WOW suites, but unfortunately there was nothing Wow about it. Slightly larger than a standard room at a standard Marriott, but with a wall dividing the compact living room with the bedroom. The suite did come with a bath and a half. The half bath had a sink that looked like it fell off the wall, and somebody did a half as$ed job of re-installing it. Lighting throughout was poor, but especially in the full bath it was rather dark. The service level was superior upon arrival, but especially the Valet and the Bellman. They were both very helpful and professional. Check in was not so swift, and I had to go through several people to actually get our keys. As a seasoned Ambassador, I always ask for an upgrade upon check-in. This room, although on a tall floor, was no upgrade, as I paid for a suite. There is a nice lounge on the 7th floor. No view whatsoever, but comfortable. Service level was good, but the server gave us a hard time over some complimentary cocktails that were promised us, so her gratuity went bye bye. The main bathroom was small, and poorly lit. The fixtures were very odd, and didn't function well, although the toilet did flush okay. They place the shower valve in a stupid location, and you will get wet turning on the shower, from its placement. I like the shower valves, that are opposite the shower head. Instead of a standard door to the bathroom, they have sliding pocket doors with smoked glass. Definitely not acceptable privacy. All in all, the hotel needs a lot of work. It is prime for a makeover, which is long past due. Hopefully they will attend to it in the near future. I won't be back .... W's are rarely my cup of tea. Be safe, and happy travels ! Read less

Hotel is in a great location, just off Times Square. Conveniently located near many great restaurants, theaters, and subway lines.

Hotel is in a great location, just off Times Square. Conveniently located near many great restaurants, theaters, and subway lines. The hotel entrance is at ground level and then you have to take an elevator up to the 7th floor to check in. This is also where the bar is. From here you have to take another elevator to get to your room. So two different elevator rides to get from ground level to room. Kinda annoying. Staff was friendly. Check-in was easy. The rooms are outdated. This was my biggest issue. And it’s nothing crazy but just the small things. Easy fixes but you can tell the hotel has zero intentions of fixing them. Just take a look at my photos and you’ll see. If they just did one room at a time and fixed/cleaned all these small things, this hotel would for sure be 4 stars. I know they will respond and say that they will or are trying but we all know they aren’t. Whatever. Room was a decent price for what you get. Read less
