    Great front desk staff; how did you make your reservation?

    Like others, we found the location, especially the proximity to Grand Central, perfect for sightseeing. The hotel is also an easy 30 minute walk to Penn Station. Also as others have described the rooms are small, but not too small by Manhattan standards. The breakfast was standard Hampton Inn fare. What pushed my rating to excellent were the front desk staff. They were friendly, quick with suggestions for a late night dinner, and even helped one of our friends who was staying at a Marriott. One word of note, there was another customer who made their reservation through a 3rd party vendor and had a problem with the room type. I'm not sure where to lay blame, but the Hampton Inn / Hilton Hotels claimed no responsibility.

    Great experience

    We stayed at this hotel for 6 nights. We had a great experience, the hotel is in a fantastic location, just 2 minutes from Grand Central and the subway. The breakfast was good, with both sweet and savory options, the staff was friendly, and the room was clean (maybe a refresh on the carpet would be nice) and had a big shower. I would definitely recommend it.

    Convenient, clean, friendly staff!

    Friendly and efficient front desk personnel, conveniently located to Grand Central Station, breakfast daily is okay (it serves its purpose). Rooms are clean, air conditioning excellent. If you want a no frills, convenient, friendly, clean place, this one was good!

    Great Home Base

    I was able to snag a great rate for Hotel Week. The hotel is a very short walk from GCT and is a fantastic home base for traveling throughout Manhattan. The front desk was super kind and helpful, check-in was a breeze, and the room, albeit small, had everything we needed. The only negatives I can think of are that the walls are pretty thin, so we could hear our neighbors talking/laughing fairly late into the night, and the breakfast got very crowded. But all in all, especially for the price I paid, this hotel was perfect.

    Good visit - always a good stay here on business - great staff!

    Good stay, clean rooms, friendly staff! Stay here on business - very central and close to good places to eat and explore. Close to 1 Vanderbilt, grand central terminal, and a 15 -20 walk to Times Square and other attractions. Free breakfast and great staff.
