My wife and I stayed at the Hudson Hotel on our first trip to NYC. We booked the hotel as a 3.5* MTC on Hotwire and saved ~$70/night from the price listed on the hotel website. The lobby was nice and the staff was friendly. We arrived around 1:30pm and our room was not ready, so we left our luggage and they later delivered it to our room. The room was very small (~150 sq. ft), but was set up well enough that it was not a problem. It had wood floors, a comfortable bed, was kept neat and clean, and had a bathroom big enough for one person at a time. By far our favorite thing about the hotel was the location. The only time we used a cab was to get from the airport to the hotel - then took the subway/NJ Transit to get back. The hotel is located so close to Columbus Circle, Central Park, and the subway (3 minute walk) that we were able to walk or use the subways for the 5 days we were there. In summary, we were happy with the hotel and would stay there again - especially if we save $70/night through Hotwire.
