NEW YORKER BY LOTTE HOTELS

8/10 Good
"As a tennis enthusiast, the New Yorker is an ideal location as the LIRR stops at Penn Station which is literally across the street from the hotel. Imagine returning from a match in the wee hours of the morning and not have to be concerned about safety as a solo traveler Rates changed significantly towards the weekend so I chose a different hotel for my last night, but overall the experience was good"

"The Empire Hotel is a great place to stay. There is a great restaurant to eat at, on the property and several across the street . It’s close to Columbus Circle. It’s also close to hop on hop off bus stops. Close to the zoo and Central Park. And there’s ice cream every couple of feet."
