Broadway Plaza Hotel

The bad news first. This hotel is in an awful neighborhood. I visit New York every year and this area is much worse than you would normally expect. The streets are filthy and there are noisy street vendors and peddlers everywhere. Late in the evening, the area gets very quiet and rather spooky. On the plus side, the hotel room and bath were much nicer than I expected. Both were very clean with no problems. The room comes with air conditioning, a TV, a telephone, plenty of towels, a hairdryer, and an iron and ironing board. The continental breakfast each morning (coffee, juice, and pastries) is also nice. Because I am very familiar with New York, I would stay here again. For a first time visitor, the neighborhood might seem scary. Given the price, this is a good buy.

Broadway Plaza was below Par 9/27/04. -Strewn garbage on the street, looks creepy every night -Yellowed, rough, thin towels, bed very creaky, and hard. -Staff knows next to nothing about Internet Connection for the room. The web service never did work for 3 days. -Few TV channels, hotel wanted to "sell" you normal channel availibility like HGTV-an other standard channels. -Rental movies $14.00 plus tax etc. -Bathroom tub calking black, moldy,window edging raw and not even finished. -Bedspread and curtains needed cleaning, dark and drab colors too. Pay a little more and stay in a decent area.

My husband and I just came home this morning from staying at this Hotel. When we first drove up my husband did not like the area He was ready to go someplace else. We did go in and did spend 4 nights here. I have to say we were very pleased after we got inside. We were in room 904 and had a view of the Empire State Building. If you like to shop for wholesale items this is the place to stay. Lots of stores around the whole block. I spent my share in these stores. It was very Quite at night and not a lot of people walking up and down hall ways and making noise.

This hotel totally worth the money!! (which might be an exception in NYC)! We are a young couple and liked our stay at the Broadway Plaza very much. The staff is kind and helpful, the rooms are huge, clean and quiet, the subway station is just a block away. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who is looking for a fair and good deal and isn't eager for a fancy adress. The only thing we didn't like too much about the Broadway Plaza was the breakfast. The breakfast area is very small, too crowded and the food is so-so. Above it all - stay at Broadway Plaza, you'll have a good time.

I was traveling to New York City with my family for a vacation and wanted to stay near the sites and enjoy all the city has to offer. I was apprehensive about picking a hotel and wanted to ensure I found a safe clean hotel for a reasonable price. I read the reviews on this site and chose the Broadway Plaza. It was an excellent choice! Everything they say on the reviews is true. You have to walk around the corner past the little desk to see the lobby, but the place is clean and the rooms are big. I asked for and received a room facing the Empire State Building which was a beautiful site at night! My room was big and the bathroom was first rate and clean. The hotel doesn’t have many rooms per floor which gives it an apartment building feel. The area is busy during the day and quite at night. You are close to 34th St. and have a subway station on the corner. If you are looking for a terrific hotel for a decent price with an excellent staff this is the place for you! Give the hotel a chance and you will enjoy yourself. I highly recommend the Broadway Plaza and will stay there again upon my return to New York City. I hope this review helps you as the reviews of others helped me make this wise choice!

This hotel was perfect. My friend and I went for 6 days in August, and thought the hotel was clean, safe, and in a great location in the middle of everything. The neighborhood's not dangerous, just deserted at night. Within walking distance from the subway, Times Square, etc. Cannot beat what you get for the price. Would gladly stay there again.

I thought this was a great hotel for the money. It was close to everything. The staff was very friendly and extremely helpful with giving directions. The room was nice, and it had an excellent view of the Empire State Building. I will definitely stay at the Broadway Plaza Hotel the next time I go to NYC.

My friend and I stayed there and were a touch unsure of the location initially (based on a couple of other reviews and being two women) however I have no reservations as all about recommending it. We had had a terrible experience in our previous hotel so asked to check in a couple of days early and these guys were wonderful to us. Good staff, wonderful large rooms (level 3 and 12), very clean and the location (once you get over how it appears come 10pm at night) was excellent. Once the night falls and businesses pack up and go home it did seem a bit out there with the roller doors pulled down however you are on Broadway, close to Madison Sq gardens, Empire State building, Macey's and Park Av. The location was really no worse than several of the hotels up in Times Square and in fact was quieter. This hotel location offers plenty of choice for buses and subways. Totally excellent ! The staff were genuinely helpful. We loved it!

We stayed at the Broadway Plaza for 5 nights in July - yes the area isn't fancy but definitely not unsafe and very interesting with some good bargains to be had. Hard to beat with the subway only a block away and easy access to any part of Manhattan. The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the staff friendly and helpful. We loved our view of the Empire State!

The hotel is situated in a bad area so everytime you come out of your hotel you are watching your back. It is very close to the main area and it is cheap. However we went to New York fo a week and it took away from the trip as the place is such a dive to return to. Pay the extra and enjoy a stay in a proper hotel. Better to have to walk 20 minutes then be in the centre of things in a hovel. The staff are very nice but as I say no girl will enjoy a stay here. BOOK SOME WHERE ELSE.
