Hi

While in New York I love staying in Morgans on Madison Ave. What is your favourite in the big apple?

Mine is the Hotel Mela

Whilst it's a small, compact hotel without any dining facilities, (the standard rooms are quite small but all rooms and the hotel itself are well maintained), it's in a fantastic location (<20 yards from Times Square) and it isn't silly money either.

I've stayed in the Crowne Plaza Times Sq - not worth the money. Hotel W is pretty nice.

I loved staying in the Washington Square hotel. Although the rooms are small the atmosphere and staff were great and I liked how it was art deco rather than modern. It was also right in the middle of Greenwich Village which was perfect

I still like the Penninsula - the outdoor rooftop bar when the weather's nice...

I love the Westin Times Square, rooms are a good size, unbeatable location and great service. You can get some really exceptional room rates too if you book in advanced.

The Trump Soho in, erm, Soho, gets my vote. Best of the couple of dozen (or so) hotels I've been put in over the last 10 years...

I love The Sofitel, and there's a great coffee shop opposite too - Gregorys Coffee. The macaroons given out during the turn-down service are delicious!

The new IC Times Square is up there too on my list, not just because of the Shake Shack next door. :D

Yes have stayed theor twice but only because of a good ££ deal otherwise I'd have avoided. Nice place to stay and the view from the 28th floow swimming pool is fab.

I saw that view too when I accidently did a 'sunshine' in the bathroom ): ):

Stayed many times at the Omni Berkshire Place which has always been good, due to being a member of their frequent guest club have been upgraded more than once. On last trip to NYC in November tried the Michelangelo which I thoiught was good and would use a gain.

Location wise the Renaissance gets my vote and the rooms are a decent size too ( the views of Times Square from the restaurant are great too).
