Great location

The hotel was in the perfect location to walk to just about anywhere. Only a few blocks away from Rockefeller Center, Times Square and Central Park. There were also some great restaurants along Lexington that were easily accessible. We didnt spend much time in the room due to sightseeing, but it was big enough for our purposes. Would definitely stay there again!

Great location

Although the rooms were a little small by american standards the location could not have been better. The staff was very attentive and helpful. On check-in the clerk{Gloria] noticed we were booked in a "cozy room" and she offered to upgrade at no extra charge. WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent stay at the W!

Great location for mid-town Manhattan. Very easy taxi ride to and from LaGuardia because of its East side location. Easy access across town and up and downtown. Staff was always busy at the front desk, but they moved people through the lines efficiently. In-room food service was excellent. Concierge was never available to answer phone calls and did not return phone messages in a timely manner--the only negative experience in an otherwise fine stay.

Great location for a city break

Spent 3 nights in new York at this hotel was a great base in a great location. The hotel had good facilities, we got upgraded to a spectacular room from cozy which we are really glad of however I must say the bathrooms are tiny which I wouldnt pay an upgrade to get. Apart from that a nice hotel with friendly staff

Location positive

Hotel was fine. Service in the cocktail lounge was lacking attentiveness. Music, although, lively was boring since it sounded like club music over and over again with no other more interesting mixes. Front desk staff was accomodating.

The W did not disappoint

Champagne in the waiting line of the reception was a nice touch and represented well the service at the W. The room was comfortable and the location of the hotel is good, in an area were most hotels are.
