This was the perfect location for my visit to my daughter. It was a straight shot just 5 min walk up the street to her apartment. My room was small but clean & comfortable. I will be back again.

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The rooms are pretty spacious for being in Manhattan, and the bed was big and comfortable. It was also thoroughly cleaned daily. Although we only went up once, the rooftop with views of the Empire State was nice.

Amazing stay at HGU! we will be back! Every single staff member we interacted with was kind and so helpful. The coffee shop in the lobby is incredible and convenient. Easy 20 minute walk to Times Square and so close to the subway. The hotel was clean and well maintained. We will be back!!!

Stayed for two days, the picture of the room was alittle deceiving because it was smaller than i thought but it’s super convenient cause everything was closed by but there was construction going on in the building during my stay and it made it hard to sleep in. Other than that, overall it’s pretty nice

As someone who loves Korean food I picked a great hotel to stay in! The location, quality customer service and cleanliness stand out the most. I felt safe leaving at 1:30 am to get local Korean food and early morning walks for cafes were a joy. I would absolutely stay here again :)

7 Night Solo City Break

I chose this hotel from a well travelled family member recommendation. It was without doubt in an excellent location! Entrance to the subway was 100m away and it was a 10 minute walk from Grand Central. Empire State Building was equally a 10 minute walk. The bed was very comfortable and they service you room daily as standard, unlike other local hotels! I was staying for 7 nights and if I had to pick a negative it would be the insistance of a credit/debit card to the tune of $400 on arrival or they would not release the room to me, even though they had been paid through this site a fortnight in advance. I was informed that $200 was for the 'Locally collected mandatory fees/taxes*' on top of the similar amount already paid on purchase. The second $200 on top of the mandatory fees was for the security deposit. Just be sure your card can withstand such a hit on arrival or you may have difficulty. I was informed on leaving that the $200 security deposit would be returned to me via transfer and if it is an international bank account then it could take upwards of 3 weeks. A lovely hotel in a central location.
Nice rooftop area, it's not a bar. You can purchase one of 4 or 5 items from reception but you may wish to bring you own.
