The               W               Hotel               Times               Square               is               one               of               five               in               New               York               City,               and               is               the               best               location               in               my               opinion.

From               this               hotel,               you               are               close               enough               to               see               the               ball               drop               from               select               windows               on               New               Year's               Eve.

I               found               it               most               useful               to               research               the               site               first               to               find               special               offers,               and               then               to               call               and               make               my               booking               directly.

The               first               thing               you               will               want               to               do               is               become               a               Starwood               Preferred               Guest.

Once               you               do               this,               you               will               be               able               to               get               a               discount               for               any               time               you               stay               at               a               W               Hotel,               the               preferred               guest               rate.

For               each               dollar               you               spend,               you               get               a               point.

Then,               you               redeem               points               for               a               free               stay.

The               W               Hotels               are               one               of               the               most               costly               pointwise,               but               it's               worth               it!
               Once               you               have               joined               as               a               Starwood               Preferred               Guest,               go               to               the               website               for               W               Hotels,               and               to               the               page               for               the               W               Times               Square.

You               will               see               listed               any               special               offers               that               might               be               going               on.

               A               final               piece               of               advice               in               booking               this               hotel               applies               for               any               hotel.

If               you               go               through               a               website               such               as               travelocity               or               orbitz               or               hotels.com,               you               have               to               prepay               by               credit               card               for               the               booking.

Then,               if               you               cancel,               you               might               have               to               pay               a               fee               such               as               $25.

If               you               book               directly               through               the               hotel,               such               as               the               website               or               by               calling,               your               credit               card               is               authorized               but               not               charged               until               the               day               of               your               stay.

With               W               hotels,               if               you               cancel               more               than               24               hours               in               advance               of               4               pm               the               day               of               check               in,               you               can               avoid               anything               ever               being               charged               to               your               credit               card.
               What               W               Hotel               Times               Square               Has               to               Offer
               This               is               not               your               run               of               the               mill               New               York               hotel.

I               have               many               times               stayed               in               New               York,               and               have               found               that               even               some               costly               places               can               be               tiny               rooms               where               you               have               to               step               over               the               bed               just               to               get               to               the               bathroom.

The               W               hotel               is               different-               as               soon               as               you               pull               up               in               front               of               the               hotel,               you               feel               a               sense               of               luxury               and               accommodation.

So,               you               arrive               in               front               of               the               hotel,               with               your               car               and               your               luggage               in               the               trunk.

There               are               people               waiting               for               you               to               take               your               luggage               and               park               your               car.

As               for               using               the               car               service               at               the               hotel,               it               is               costly.

It               is               about               $40               per               night,               but               can               be               more               if               you               have               an               SUV,               etc.

You               may               find               cheaper               parking               in               a               garage               nearby,               but               then               you               don't               have               the               ease               of               having               the               hotel               pull               the               car               right               up               to               the               curb               for               you               on               checkout.

Once               your               car               is               parked,               someone               will               take               you               and               your               luggage               up               to               the               seventh               floor               for               check-in.

Then,               your               luggage               will               be               taken               to               your               room               once               you               check               in.
               How               are               the               rooms?

We               stayed               in               a               spectacular               room.

This               meant               we               were               on               the               42nd               floor.

The               wonderful               rooms,               a               small               amount               less               expensive,               were               generally               on               floors               up               to               the               30th               floor.

In               the               spectacular               rooms,               there               is               a               great               view               of               the               new               york               city               streets               below.

We               requested               a               room               with               a               view,               and               had               a               view               of               Broadway.

We               could               see               the               M&M               sign               below               us               as               well.

The               room               was               superb.

The               minute               we               walked               in               we               were               transformed               into               a               different               mood,               of               peacefulness               and               stylish               innovation.

Our               room               had               a               mini-bar               with               wines               and               miniature               alcohol,               juices               and               bottles               of               water,               sodas,               and               some               snacks.

The               snacks               included               chocolate               and               chips,               etc.

You               could               also               purchase               an               umbrella               or               robe               from               a               drawer               under               the               mini-bar.

Be               careful-               make               sure               you               aren't               charged               for               something               you               didn't               eat               or               take.

We               were               accidentally               charged               for               an               umbrella,               and               I               had               to               call               to               have               this               removed               from               our               bill!

There               were               many               mirrors               in               the               room,               and               a               cd               was               playing               on               the               cd               player.

We               quite               enjoyed               how               the               cd               set               the               mood               for               a               quiet,               romantic               evening.

(The               cd               player               can               be               turned               off,               or               loaded               with               your               own               songs,               if               you'd               like.)               There               is               a               huge               plasma               tv,               a               glass-enclosed               shower,               and               floating               sink.

There               is               also               a               floating               glass               table               that               is               like               a               desk               with               stationery.

The               table/desk               is               up               against               the               wall,               with               one               chair.
               The               one               improvement               that               I               would               recommend               for               the               rooms               is               to               have               a               table               that               two               people               can               use.

We               ordered               room               service               and               there               was               only               one               chair.

Also,               the               table               is               against               the               wall               and               long,               so               we               would               have               had               to               sit               beside               each               other               to               eat               instead               of               across               from               each               other.

If               we               had               more               time,               we               would               have               requested               an               extra               chair,               and               I               am               quite               sure               they               would               have               provided               one.

Then,               we               could               have               used               the               table               provided               by               room               service.


               It's               just               something               to               think               about.

Room               service               is               available,               and               the               menu               is               great!

We               ordered               breakfast.

The               menu               is               able               to               be               accessed               from               the               television!

When               ordering               breakfast,               there               are               some               specials               available               so               that               you               don't               have               to               order               each               item               a               la               carte.

The               breakfast               came               in               a               timely               manner,               in               about               a               half               an               hour.
               The               hotel               also               has               other               useful               amenities.

The               seventh               floor,               where               you               check               in,               has               a               lounge               area               and               bar               area.

There               is               a               gift               shop               as               well,               with               unique               New               York               City               gifts.

It               is               pricey,               however.

There               are               women's               pants               there,               for               instance,               for               $200.

On               the               ground               level,               there               is               a               restaurant               called               the               Blue               Fin.

I               would               highly               recommend               this               restaurant.

The               ambience               is               surreal               with               a               modern               floating               staircase.

The               food               was               a               delicacy.

I               ordered               filet               mignon,               medium               well.

I               have               found,               even               in               the               best               restaurants,               that               it               is               hard               to               cook               a               thick               cut               of               filet               mignon               perfectly               medium               well.

However,               I               was               pleased               that               my               steak               was               cooked               to               perfection,               and               had               an               unforgettable               flavor!

The               dessert               was               out               of               this               world!

It               was               "created"               by               the               chefs.

The               best               thing               about               it               was               the               raspberry               sorbet,               which               was               smooth               and               creamy               to               perfection.

The               bill               for               two               people               including               a               good               tip               was               about               $230               for               appetizer,               salad,               two               main               courses,               and               dessert.
               There               is               a               bar               underneath               the               hotel               called               the               Whiskey.

This               was               the               place               to               be               on               Saturday               night!

The               feel               is               hip-hop               popular               dance               music,               and               most               people               are               dressed               up               but               not               formal.

There               are               many               different               little               cozy               areas               to               sit               and               chat,               and               a               vip               area               for               parties               at               one               end               of               the               club.

Plenty               of               room               is               available               for               dancing,               and               many               were               dancing               that               night!

You               must               exit               the               hotel               to               reach               the               Whiskey,               and               walk               outside               to               the               door               down               to               the               club.

But,               it's               not               far               enough               to               need               a               coat-               so               you               can               still               leave               everything               in               your               room.

You               also               get               free               admission               being               a               guest               of               the               hotel.
               What's               Going               on               Around               Town?
               The               Broadway               theatre               district               is               right               around               the               corner.

This               means               you               can               walk               from               the               hotel               to               a               show.

Times               Square               is               right               there,               with               the               mtv               store,               and               many               other               popular               stores.

Within               walking               distance               also               is               the               Empire               State               Building-               about               a               mile               south,               and               Central               Park,               about               a               mile               north.

We               walked               to               Rockefeller               Center,               where               we               checked               out               iceskating.

It               cost               about               $18               per               person               including               skate               rental               for               1.5               hours.

If               you               ever               want               to               ice               skate,               the               sessions               start               about               every               two               hours               and               last               for               1.5               hours,               up               until               about               midnight               each               night.

We               also               went               to               eat               in               the               Rockefeller               Center               at               the               Rainbow               Room.

This               would               have               been               nice,               but               we               couldn't               get               served               dinner               because               we               missed               the               last               sitting.

It               was               about               10               pm               on               a               Saturday               night-               so               get               there               early.

We               did               manage               to               sit               at               the               bar               and               have               a               $7               apple               martini.
               Recommendation
               Stay               at               this               hotel!

Don't               miss               the               incredible               experience.

Everyone               is               friendly               and               helpful,               including               the               doormen               when               asking               for               directions,               and               the               amenities               are               worth               the               price.

The               location               can't               be               beat!

As               a               result               of               staying               in               this               hotel,               we               have               decided               to               stay               in               W               hotels               every               time               we               take               a               trip               in               the               future-               I               was               that               impressed.

Other               than               the               bill               being               having               some               errors,               which               were               fixed               when               a               call               was               placed,               this               was               an               impeccable               experience.

Transform               yourself               into               a               world               of               modern               luxury!
