This hotel is located on 3rd Avenue between 52nd and 53rd. There is a 24 hour drug store downstairs (very convenient) and a subway stop (lines E & V, with access to the 4, 5 & 6 lines) on the corner. I like this location because it is easy to get to the tourist attractions, but you don't feel like you are in the middle of all the crowds. The rooms are a good size by NYC standards and the hotel is clean. The lobby is small and can feel crowded when it is full of people who are checking in/out. Overall, I recommend this hotel.

Six of us shared a room here this month for a girlfriends getaway. We chose this particular hotel because of the room size and the fact that it looked like it could fit a group our size. There were two queens and a pull out sofa and we were very comfortable. The staff had the sofa bed already made up for us and were very responsive to any requests. It was just a great hotel and staff. We LOVED Pedro the bellman. What a doll. He made us laugh every time we saw him. All the other great stuff has already been said. No one would be disappointed staying here.

I booked this hotel largely based on the excellent reviews on this site which turned out to be spot on. The hotel was spotlessly clean. We had an enormous room with two queen beds and a bed settee, perfect as it meant that our two daughters had a bed each. Lots of space to dump shopping each day.

We made good use of the Duane Reade next to the hotel and the Oxford Cafe around the corner. The subway stop a few steps from the hotel was also convenient, although being four of us it was often cheaper to take a cab.

Due to the location of the hotel it also made walking to most places very easy.

I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it.

Was very impressed with the Courtyard Marriott Midtown East. The hotel is in a great location...you are not right in the middle of all the hustle and bustle of Times Square but close enough to walk there. There were many options to eat, drink, sightsee within walking distance. Plus the subway stops right outside the hotel!

The room was spotless and very clean. Check-in took us less than a minute and we were helped to our room by the friendly bellman.

Overall the hotel was great and I would recommend it to family and friends looking for a centrally located and clean hotel in the heart of Manhattan.
