Stayed here during the worst snow storm to hit New York in recent history, therefore were somewhat limited in movement.
Found the hotel to have a great location, and the facilities to be quite good. room was sizeable and views are excellent.
The restaurant is quite good and the staff very helpful

I recently stayed at this Hotel with my niece. A trip to NY was her 18th Birthday present from me and her first visit to NYC.
I have stayed in NY several times usually around the Times Square area but this was my first stay at the Hilton.
All of the previous reviews I had read proved to be very accurate and I was certaily not disappointed with the Hotel.
Having read previous reviews I had asked to be in a room as high as possible to ensure we had the good view that people had mentioned. When we checked in we were allocated a room onteh 23rd floor which is the first floor for rooms and the view was of buildings opposite. The room was lovely but I was disappointed witht he view so I went back to reception and without hesitation they moved us to the 39th floor which had a stunning view of the Statue of Liberty and was much lighter. Will, the receptionist, was wonderful and always said hello to us as we passed reception from then on.

The location is perfect, the staff are very friendly and the rooms are very clean. This is much better value overall than the Hotels I have stayed in which are far more expensive with less room and often no view.

I would have no hesitation recommending this Hotel and would certainly stay there again.

Our family of four stayed here for 6 nights in August. Booked this hotel mainly due to the good reviews on Trip Advisor but on the whole felt disappointed. The rooms were a fair size for New York, although the bathrooms were on the small size, and they were clean and well serviced by the housekeeping staff, but there was nothing of particular note about them, they were just average. We had problems with noisy neighbours on two nights and although Hilton did recompense us for this it was disturbing.

The lobby/bar/restaurant were all together and I think that this is what was most annoying. It was not possible to just sit and have a relaxing drink as hoards of people kept passing through on their way in or out of their rooms or to visit reception.

The staff were all very polite and helpful though and you cannot fault the location.

In summary it is an average hotel, in a great location, but definitely not on the cheap side, especially in the bar and the restaurant.

I can't say enough good things about this hotel. It was in a prime location just around the corner from Times Square on 42nd St., they let us check in an hour early, the room was large and spotless with a great view of Manhattan and all of the staff were polite and courteous.

There is one minor thing to look out for, and it is so minor that I'm almost embarrassed to mention it. The hotel offers you the facility to play your Ipod in your room but once you get there it's a really small bedside alarm clock and once you plug your ipod into it you can barely hear it. As far as I'm concerned, if that's the only complaint I've got about a hotel then I've done really well!
