935 rooms. 935 rooms! The sheer enormity of Park Central blows us away. Downstairs, the lobby is about as Vegas as New York gets, with huge checker-patterned floor tiles, enormous prints of Judy Garland in various bright shades, and the furious buzz of guests and staff.

Rooms are a cut above most midrange Manhattan hotel rooms. Striped wall-to-wall carpets are pleasantly thick. Bed units, chests of drawers, and work desks in unified modern light wood. There are few surprises or high-design flourishes, but everything is of relatively high quality and the effect is pleasing. Flat-panel televisions round out the selection.

Bathrooms are small, with nice black marble-like sink units, decent-sized bathtubs, and walls tiled in a neutral crème.

The hotel has oodles of event space, a sports club, and a dedicated panel of concierges. In short, everything you would expect from your prototypical New York City super hotel can be found at the Park Central.

For visitors who want to stay within spitting distance of Columbus Circle, Central Park, and Rockefeller Center, Park Central represents a relatively great value in the off-season.

About the Park Central New York neighborhood

Midtown West is chockablock with tourists sights, so it comes as no surprise that it's also chockablock with tourist-class hotels. Working west from Fifth Avenue to Hell's Kitchen and stretching north from 37th Street up to Central Park, Midtown West is home to the Theater District, Rockefeller Center, Radio City Music Hall, Carnegie Hall, and the Museum of Modern Art. Whew! And then there's Times Square—an entity within itself. Though most New Yorkers steer clear of this congested area, the neon lights, larger-than-life billboards, and wise-talking street vendors keep the visitors coming. And coming. And coming.

Though not the most picturesque portion of the city—tall, uninspired office buildings form the bulk of the architecture—Midtown West does have its pleasant parts. The awe-inspiring New York Public Library and adjacent Bryant Park are two excellent places to find some respite. Plus, Midtown West certainly offers visitors convenience. Just about every train line is in walking distance, should you ever decide to venture beyond its borders, and the Port Authority Bus Terminal can get you to and from all the major airports, as well as other parts of the region.
