I paid for a comfortable room and they gave me one that had a door that connected to the room next door, and you could hear all the noise that the people there made, so much so that we only spent 5 hours in the place and checked out.

This was 1 of the best hotels we’ve stayed at in New York. It’s just far enough away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough to walk to if you want some action. The rooms were spacious considering how small some of the rooms can be in New York hotels. We had three people and actually, the bedroom was completely separate from the living area where the pullout couch was for the third person so we all had privacy! I highly recommend this place, not to mention the staff were wonderful! We were treated like royalty!

Business traveler
Disliked: Staff & service
The staff is incompetent. He gave me a key to a room where another guest was staying . The other guest and I both complained to him. I told him the wake up call is at 4:30 am when I checked in. After he switched room. He forgot to put wake up call at my new room . I missed the train and spend more than 200 dollars to buy another ticket . In the morning, I called the front desk, I said I would not stay in the hotel anymore, because the hotel failed to do the wake-up call. The woman down there asked me why I would do that just because the hotel did not do the wake-up call.

We hope to have the opportunity to regain your trust and demonstrate the high level of service we strive to provide.Kind Regards,

This hotel was beautiful! Good walking distance from time square and a few nearby dining options. My stay here was pretty much perfect! The only comment I have is in regard to the AC unit in my room. I noticed that as it turned on/off to regulate the temperature, it made a loud noise that alarmed me often. Besides this very minor flaw, I enjoyed my time and I would definitely visit again!

Booked this hotel for a weekend in the city and had a great experience! My group utilized the free bag drop that the hotel offered since our transportation into the city arrived a few hours before our check-in. We had the king-suite room and it was great. Everything was clean and we had no issues. The location was also great, just a few blocks from the Chrysler building and Grand Central station. I will definitely be checking availability here again next time I am in the city!

I have stayed a the Westgate 3 times in the last year. The rooms are great. Since this is a renovated old hotel, each room is unique not cookie cutter like many new hotels. The staff is friendly and accommodating. On my most recent stay my room was at the back of the hotel so there was very little street noise. I will definitely be back.
