"Great location, and the staff was friendly overall. However, one older individual working at the front desk had a bit of an attitude. The rest of the staff was very friendly. The hotel definitely needs some renovations, as it was a bit janky, but we still enjoyed our stay, mainly because of the location."

10/10 Excellent
"This is my second time staying at the Marriott Marquis Times Square. I love that the hotel is centrally located. The staff was welcoming and helpful. The room was nice and clean. The only complaint I have is the lack of a microwave. My friend and I had lots of leftovers and no way to warm them up. We took advantage of eating at the restaurant Revel & Rye on the premises and it was amazing food (especially the breakfast sandwich). Levain bakery is one of my many stops I love going to when I’m in the city, So I was excited to see that there’s a Levain bakery inside the hotel. I got my cookie fix almost every day. I had an overall great experience. I would definitely recommend this hotel if you love being in the center of all the action Times Square has to offer. I will definitely be booking again for my yearly trip to NYC."
