New York Marriott Marquis

Abigail Huffman

We had such a lovely Valentine’s weekend at the New York Marriott Marquis! The location was excellent and we loved being able to walk to so many nearby spots, including the show we came to see. The subway was also just steps away, which made getting around incredibly easy. Check-in and check-out were both quick and seamless, and every employee we encountered was genuinely kind and welcoming. We enjoyed visiting the bar and grabbing coffee from the gift shop a couple of times during our stay. Everything we tried was delicious. The view from our room was absolutely amazing and made the weekend feel even more special. The only small downside is that you do hear typical city noise, like car horns and sirens. However, with the TV on, we were able to sleep comfortably. We would absolutely return and look forward to staying here again!

I’ve been going to this hotel since it opened in 1985!! I still love riding the glass elevators to the top floor and back down. I stayed there with my siblings on Labor Day weekend in the summer of ‘24 and the summer of ‘25 and had an awesome time. We had connecting rooms which always makes it more fun! The hotel is right in the middle of Times Square among the hustle and bustle of Manhattan. Super easy to walk to Broadway shows, dine at local long established restaurants like Sardi’s and Carmine’s and course shopping. TKTS is also just steps away for good deals on Broadway shows. Since Times Square is literally the center of everything you’re just a quick subway ride, cab or uber ride uptown to the Museum of Natural History, Central Park, Lincoln Center and more OR downtown to the High Line, SoHo, the Statue of Liberty and so much more. The Marriott Marquis Times Square location is truly an iconic landmark at this point. The location can’t be beat. Lastly, in spite of a bumpy reservation hiccup, the staff made up for it and gave us an incredible room overlooking Times Square. Highly recommended!!!

We stayed at the Marriott Marquis in Times Square, and overall, it was a phenomenal experience. One of the absolute best things about this hotel is the location. It is right in the heart of Times Square, and you truly cannot ask for a better spot if you want to experience New York City, Broadway, restaurants, and entertainment all within walking distance. We booked a king room with floor-to-ceiling views overlooking Times Square, and the view was simply breathtaking. At night, when the lights came alive, it felt picture-perfect and was one of the highlights of our stay. The hotel itself has plenty of conveniences and dining options. There are multiple restaurants, shops, and even a Starbucks within the hotel, which made everything very easy for families and travelers. The breakfast buffet was also excellent, with a huge variety of choices. They also offered à la carte options if you preferred something lighter. The location made it incredibly easy for us to enjoy Broadway shows and explore the surrounding area without needing transportation most of the time. A couple of areas where I think the hotel could improve: our bed linens had a visibly stained spot, which was disappointing for a hotel of this caliber. Also, while the bathroom overall was clean and well-maintained, some corners near the shower were starting to show wear and looked a little run-down. Certain parts of the hotel are beginning to show their age and could benefit from some refreshed upkeep. That said, none of these issues took away from what was otherwise a fantastic stay. The location, views, convenience, and overall experience made this a memorable hotel, and we would definitely consider staying here again.

A mix of good, bad and ugly The Good: the rooms are in great shape and super comfortable. Some of the rooms of have great views of time square too. The house keeping staff is kind and for being in Times Square, the place is surprisingly clean. The rooftop bar is really nice and def is a must if you’re there The bad: as other reviewers mentioned, the elevator situation is an issue. In prime hours, expect it to take at least 5-10 mins to get up or down to your room (each way). As much as a high floor sounds desirable, I couldn’t imagine the wait if you were on a top floor The ugly: I’ve stayed at hundreds of Marriotts. Never once have I had my room downgraded. Triple check and maybe call in advance to make sure they have the room you booked available!!! The staff were able to work it out, which I was grateful for. But the tone was unnecessary aggressive and made me feel like was a complete nuisance. Maybe that’s just a NY thing but she’s truly the only person to have actually offended me on a 4 day trip. The hotel is a solid choice but with the customer service, I would not return unless there was an event there

The location of this hotel is perfect for those who want to be in the middle of the action. It seems to attract people from all walks of life (business, tourists, etc). My con is that my bathroom could have used a good scrubbing. Although it appeared clean, I hated the feeling of using it. The attention to cleanliness could be improved.
