Great location, they had all but the parking entrance closed which was a little inconvenient. It was an older hotel but it was clean and the bed was comfortable!

Hotel Edison Times Square
Incredible staff. Lovely, spacious rooms. And you can’t beat the location + proximity to Broadway shows and other great spots in midtown. Also, I love the breakfast vouchers they give you each day. This is rare for NYC hotels and saves a lot of money. Love Hotel Edison!
