Top Columbia University Hotel Reviews

NEW YORKER BY LOTTE HOTELS

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient place to stay close to Madison Square Garden"

Paramount Times Square – A Generator Hotel

8/10 Good

"The rooms are very basic and small but perfect for a cheaper option in the expensive city. We were basically just in the rooms to sleep so it worked out well. The only complaint was the door didn’t lock well and the shower didn’t drain. The staff was all very friendly and helpful, they offer $3 per bag luggage storage after checkout if you want to explore the city more which came in handy! I would stay again if I was ever back in NYC."

The Lucerne Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff at the Lucerne is always courteous, and when you need something, very prompt. I've stayed here several times and always enjoyed the hotel and the convenience of Nice Matin. However: it is time to update the flaws in the bathroom, caused by the mirror which needs to be shortened by 18" from the bottom. That improvement would make it possible to raise the sink (and the shelf attached to it) and replace the toilet, which is the main bone of contention. I'm on the short side, and I do not need to see below my waist every time I shave. The toilet seat is a quite a drop - It's like trying to potty train adults. Otherwise, would I recommend the Lucerne to anyone wholeheartedly because of the staff, location and convenience near public transportation."

Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel

4/10 Poor

"Our room was not clean upon arrival. Our sheets were dirty and there was mold in the ceiling in my shower. I was disappointed to say the least. The staff provided vouchers for breakfast one morning and I felt that more of a discount would have been appropriate. I am a Bonvoy member and didn’t find the stay the most pleasant. We spent a lot of time out of the room purposely."
