Great Spot
Hilton Manhattan East is situated on 42nd Street which is the same street as Times Square, albeit 5 avenues cross town, but this is not a huge distance and can easily be walked in 5 to 10 mins. This makes it an ideal location as you are not paying the high costs of a Times Square hotel and are avoiding the noise and crowds of 7th Avenue, but are a very short walk away. The staff were friendly and helpful and there was free wifi in the lobby, which was good as the desktop PC's in the lobby where a little expensive and slow. The rooms are well presented an clean with a good TV and choice of channels. All in all, if the price is right for you, go for it!

Solid NYC Hotel
The hilton midtown east was a perfectly nice hotel. Great staff that were always helpful. Close to grand central. The rooms are standard hilton hotel rooms but those are pretty nice compared to many hotels in NYC. Good value for the money.
