Hotwire Hotel: 3* NYC (MTC) Hotel Manhattan at Times Square

[merlin11]

Traveling to NYC 7/27 to 7/29 2 adults and found a 3 star hotel on hotwire in the mid central area for $139. Amenities are smoke free, fitness center, restaurant, business center and high speed internet. I looked on the hotel list and din't see any matches. Does anyone know which hotel this is? Thanks!!

Welcome to BetterBidding!

These amenities are somewhat common for a city hotel, especially NYC, but i'm going to guess it's The Manhattan at Times Square (previously Sheraton Manhattan)... downgraded from the 3.5* rating when it gave up its affiliate with Sheraton.

The one caveat to this ID though is that HOTWIRE currently shows a 3.0/5.0 Tripadvisor rating for this property, whereas the Manhattan at Times Square currently has a 3.5 TA rating. As the HOTWIRE information is not updated i realtime, and the reviews of the Manhattan at Times Square have been good, i'm going to guess that the user review rating has improved and raised to 3.5/5.0 since HOTWIRE last updated this information (which they only do about once a month)

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Thanks for the help. If I buy it, I'll definitley post what it is and I wil defintiley use your PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links. Any idea if this place charges resort fees? I read the thread on that and it has me worried. The only fee HOTWIRE mentions is for parking and we won't have a car.

Thanks

I don't know of any NYC hotels which charge a resort fee.

Thanks in advance for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

Please follow-up this thread with whatever you end up doing for this stay, even if you choose to book direct, cancel your trip, etc.
