Pros: Most amazing view imaginable, free upgrade, friendly staff, awesome location.
Cons: I've had better beds, but eh.

Pros: Well-run and convenient to Times Square attractions.

Pros: Excellent location, friendly staff, subway access, lots of shopping.
Cons: A little noisy, slightly tight squeeze in room.
Summary: Not everything in Manhattan is as big in person as it looks on television or the Internet, and the Westin at Times Square is no exception. But the 30 plus-story hotel is certainly as tall as you might expect, and even on brilliantly lighted 42nd ... read more

Pros: Close to Broadway and restaurants, clean comfortable rooms.Good value for the money.
Cons: Not very luxurious, but a great deal for the money.
Summary: While I normally prefer to pamper myself at 5 star hotels, I spent a weekend at the Westin at Times Square last week. The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of Broadway so if you are a theatre goer, you can't get any closer than the Westin.
