Park Central New York

i have use this hotel more than 3 or 4 times this trip was the best i will return

As above had to change room ASAP. Did not offer any help. Removed baggage ourselves. TV did not work. Was fixed. Clock did not work. Was fixed. some other small things. would not go back.

the hotel was listed as four stars so I was expecting alot...first the entrance lobby was dreary, like the entrance to a train station. the person at the desk was friendly enough. the halls of the hotel were also in need of renovation. the room was okay and quiet, and it was reasonably priced, nice prints on the walls,good location, but it wasn't 4 stars.

Our hotel was in a great location...2 blocks from Central Park and 6 blocks from Times Square, but the room itself wasn't that great. The room was very small, the bathroom was even smaller. There were always house keeping carts in the hall ways on our floor (even when not in use...they were in the hall everyday and we stayed for 4 days). We had an electrical outlet that was very nearly falling out of wall and had a broken cover plate. Our view was of the inner court of the hotel...not a courtyard...a view of four brick walls with the windows of the rooms across the way and of the roof of a lower inner building of the hotel. However, the bed was comfortable and the tv was nice. So, if you don't plan on spending very much time in your hotel room, then it's worth the money for it's location...but it's not worth it to just chill out in your room. One more thing...the restuarant is very over priced...$12.00 for a bowl of cheerios!

great value and location, front desk and concierge were very helpful

Elevator availability forced many to walk down stairs. Often, pressing up in the lobby gave you "Not Available". Location is great, condition and age of hotel not.

We stayed at Park Central for its great location, kitty-corner to Carnegie Hall. Our "superior" room thru [...] was not held for us and we were given a room from what was "available". The front desk said that the lower quality rooms were the ones blocked for [...]. The digital safe was listed as not working, but we were not told this upon check-in. Our tickets for the concert at Carnegie (the reason we traveled there) were locked in the non-functioning safe. The staff didcome up a few minutes before the concert to electronically break in to the safe ( otherwise ourstar rating would have been a black hole star!) There is a problem with limos and taxis in New Yorkand there is collusion with the front desk, the doormen and the limos. Since Taxi Medallions cost several hundred thousand dollars and taxi fares toJFK are fixed, it is difficult to get a taxi from JFK ( especially at high traffic times. To make a living ( I guess), limos claim the cost is $60+ (or there abouts) PLUS TOLLS. There are no tolls to or from JFK or the closer La Guardia.The doormen recommend you to their friends (the limos) as do the cell phone guys at the airport. The fee a limo pays to them is $10.00, which they recoup by charging a higher rate than promisedor claiming there are tolls.Park Central may be a 3-Star Hotel in New York City but would be rated that or lower in cities like San Diego, CA.

Goood location, close to Lincoln Center and shopping.

I booked a smoking room, yet when I arrived to teh hotel , I was shocked that its a non smoking hotel, which mae my stay unpleasant

We were there just to sight see and shop. It was a decent hotel clean and suited the purpose of just a place to sleep. The hotel was not detail oriented. it had just the bare essentials. The parking was overpriced. they charged $43.00 a day. We brought our car around the corner the second day and they charged $15.00 for the entire day. We arrived a little early and the hotel charged us to hold our bags because the room was not ready. It should have been complimentary knowing we were staying in the hotel.
