On a better note, we were able to check in early. Requested a high floor with a remodeled room. Was given room 317. Room was remodeled and nice. My sister complained that the... More

Just back from our 3rd visit to the Edison. A good no frills hotel, clean and comfortable, but the staff can be rude. Reception very unwelcoming, no manners, a simple please and thank you cost nothing. It was such a change from the Queen Mary 2 we had just crossed the Atlantic and the staff were fantastic on board.

Great location right in Times Square. Rooms were clean although a little small and dated, but its only to sleep in so not a problem. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Cafe Edison was great for breakfast. Would stay again.

Right on The theater district which is very convenient to many places. A little noisy at night but you should expect that if you are in Times Square. Employees at the hotel like Roberto ( I think that was his name) at the front desk and Anna (concierge) were VERY rude and lack customer service. The hotel is old but... More

The location of this hotel is phenomenal if you want to be near Times Square and the Theater District (but not IN Times Square). The newly renovated rooms are clean and up-dated. Loved our stay and would definitely book there again!

Forth time at the Edison, perfect location, most attractions in walking distance, the staff from the doorman, the reception clerk, the consierge housekeeping are so polite and nice. We had a room with the new decor, for a 3 nights stay in the Big Apple, for me the perfect place.

We enjoyed staying at the Edison hotel with our 12 year old granddaughter. We were able to have a suite with a sofabed. The location was fantastic! Close to Times Square and most of the things we wanted to do. Easy transportation.

The hotel is in an upgrade phase and I was booked in one of the classic (read "old") rooms. The rooms are large by NY standards but the decor is very tired.The curtains were also quite thin so I had neon lights flashing into my room all night long. The bed was relatively comfortable, the bathroom small, dark and not... More

The location is just fantastic and absolutely ideal for sightseeing around New York. Stayed in a refurbished room which was very nice, not big in size but that's the norm in NYC.... Cafe next door for food and coffee, if required and is fast and furious but good quality served well. Anita the Concierge was just great, full of information,... More
