Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel
Perfect location! Close enough to time square yet far enough not to be noisy and over crowded. We didn’t have a shower curtain in our room and didn’t notice until midnight. The staff moved us to a suite for the inconvenience and turned our average stay into a phenomenal experience. Great customer ...

The staff was excellent! Jahaida and Latoya made the stay extraordinary! The hotel’s location for seeing plays couldn’t be better- literally within 100s of feet to almost all of the Broadway plays.
