Hotel Edison Times Square

Hotel Edison Times Square

10/10 Excellent
"Great central location, very very close to Times Square which is good or bad depending what you’re looking for. Room was smaller but that’s expected in NYC. Shower had very hot water which was great. Staff was very friendly and valet and checking bags was very easy. Recommend!"
