My boyfriend and I took a trip to NYC last year, I had been there before and knew about a few hotels but we took a chance on the Broadway Plaza, we were SO pleasantly surprised. Our cab from Laguardia dropped us off right in front of the hotel where the doorman generously helped us with our bags and was very friendly. The hotel is in a somewhat sketchy area, but really still busy. It is in a great location to Times Square and the subway. We could see the Empire State Building from our window, and it was just a short walk away. The rooms were immaculate... so clean and very modern. The staff was so nice! The doorman greeted us with a "Good Morning" every morning and a "Goodnight!" every night. One night we were running late to get to a show and needed to grab a taxi, the doorman stood out in the middle of the busy NYC street and got us a cab. We were so grateful! It was such a great experience, and was beyond the value. It is almost too good to be true. We are returning to New York this year and are booked to stay at the hotel again! A great place in the city!

The hotel is like central station, then you go up an escalator and you enter the lobby, The reception is very busy and geared towards the business client. The hotel is extremely clean and very elegant. It is an fabulous. location for seeing this amazing city, everything in the hotel is very expensive, computer/ internet access is a rip off. Loved new York

This hotel was not bad. It just disappointed because I expected better for the price I paid.

The room was small for a "superior room". There was no mini bar in the room. The breakfast that is served on the 4th floor, well, it is so crammed in a very small room that you have to take it away to your room. There is only one lift (elevator) for 8th to the 13th floors, and sometimes it can get very crowded, with stops on almost all floors - not for the impatient!

The good things were, my room had a great view of The Empire State Building. The customer service was excellent. The maids are very polite. Lots of good quality towels in the bathroom. Very close to the subway station, and if you prefer walking, then you can walk to Times Square in only 15 minutes.

All in all, this is a decent hotel, but for the price I paid, I felt a bit disappointed.

My girlfriend and I recently stayed at the Broadway Plaza Hotel for three nights. Based on all the positive reviews, it looked like it was real good value for the money, which it turns out to be except for one thing which is the mattress. The mattresses are so worn out that it's almost impossible to sleep two in the same bed. After one night of interrupted sleep we asked to be changed room. The second bed was a little better but still lacked in comfort.

The staff is very polite and helpful. Rooms are tidy cleans but the tile ceiling with it's 2x4 fluorescent light felt kinda odd for an hotel room. Both rooms we were in had a nice view of the Empire State Building. Parking is only one block away and not too expensive (25$ / 24 hour period). The location is not bad, it's only a short walk to Times Square and one block away from a subway station. I felt safe walking in the neighbourhood even at night.

Overall, if it wasn't for the beds, I would recommend this hotel without hesitation. It is a real bargain. But unfortunately, since the primary purpose of a hotel is to get some rest, which I hardly had, I can't recommend it...
