YOTEL New York Times Square

Me & my boyfriend stayed here for our anniversary & we enjoyed it. we stayed for 2 nights for $470. The location was great, got a high-floored room so the view was great too. Room service was quick & efficient & the room was very clean. staff is friendly. No hidden fees, check in was a breeze since we paid in advance.

The Hotel has self check in at the lobby check in kiosks. This streamlines the check in process. There is an attendent to help with any issues you may have with self check in. Upon check out just drop the electronic key in a checkout box. it was all very easy. The staff are all very helpful, approachable and friendly. Then Rooms aee snall but appear larger and are clean and comfortable. There is also a rooftop restaurant and fitness facility that i didnt use.

For starters, the location of this hotel is just about as prime time as you can get. Times Square is quite literally a 5 minute walk with a whole bunch of great stores to spend all of your money at (personal recommendation is to visit IT'SUGAR). The room size is just enough for exactly what you should be doing in a hotel, SLEEPING and then LEAVING to go back out into the world. The bed was one of the most comfortable hotel beds I've ever tried. The adjustability really added a great plus to my sleeping experience. The air conditioning/heating in the room was also very high quality and had an easy to use touchpad screen.

Initially, I had selected a skyline view, but after arriving and then seeing the view, I decided to upgrade to a Corner Queen room. This upgrade was a fantastic last-minute decision as it gave a great view of the Hudson River, Hell's Kitchen, plus the buildings to the north&north/east of 42nd. The location of Yotel is also great, as I found a couple restaurants nearby within 2 blocks on 10th, plus a deli (salads, drinks), and also a Target-store (fruits, drinks, or other incidentals). Yotel's location on 42nd puts it very close to popular locations like Time Square and Broadway, and if you are willing to walk, you could reach a few sites like the Empire State Building or the south-side of Central Park, or further depending on how far you are willing to walk. For those of you that prefer the subway, or need to go farther, the Port Authority is on 42nd between Yotel and Time Square. The complimentary Breakfast was a great start to the day, and had what I thought was an odd choice of breakfast foods, but turned-out to be a great choice to start-off energetically, and not lethargic.

The self check-in and check-out was seamless.it was a new process for me but it was easy to follow. The elevators worked well the was no long wait even with 27 floor. I liked the fack that I could use the fitness center. The cabins were small but still sufficient no need for the dead space. My experience was way better than expected. I saw a number of reviews what had me worried but I enjoyed my stay. I will definitely stay here again.
