Hilton Garden Inn New York Manhattan Midtown East

The location of the Hilton Garden Inn worked very well for us. We caught the subway in from JFK and then it’s a very short, easy walk to the hotel from Lexington Ave station. We used the subway a lot and both the nearby Lexington Ave and 51 St stations offer excellent options for getting around the city by public transport. There is a fabulous, very popular bagel place (Ess-a-Bagel) just around the corner (order on line to breeze past the queues!) and there’s a gorgeous, tiny park with a waterfall (Greenacre Park) behind the hotel to eat your breakfast bagel in. Central Park is an easy walk away and ditto Grand Central Station in the other direction.

Everything was super clean. To me that’s non negotiable. I arrived early and they had my room ready, let me check in two hours early. They have complementary coffee for breakfast on the lobby. The staff also stored my luggage for free after checkout for some hours until I left for the airport. The staff was super nice. I’ll definitely come back. And the location is great.

Location is very good, close to subway stations, rooms are comfortable and clean, the bed is large and comfortable. The neighborhood has quite a few solid restaurants, and there is fast food (McDonalds) very close for those who enjoy it.

The location was convenient in midtown Manhattan, close to the subway and walking distance to many attractions in the Midtown area. The room size was decent and larger than many of the typical older Manhattan hotel rooms. We stayed at the New Yorker the last time and this room was decently larger. The trade off with this chain budget hotel is no frills, no onsite restaurant (actually there was one but it was closed). They let us hold our bags and the guy was super friendly and accommodating.
