The Herald by LuxUrban

Spotlessly clean, comfortable, well maintained, modern and quietly stylish accommodation in a totally unbeatable location right on Herald Square across from Macy's and right by the 34th Street subway station. It's also less than five minutes walk from 5th Avenue and the Empire State Building and less than ten minutes walk from Times Square and Penn Station. Fifteen minutes gets you to the Rockefeller Centre and twenty gets you to Central Park. It's a minimal service hotel where you get a friendly and efficient welcome at a small unassuming reception, good housekeeping, lifts that work, a vending machine in a small lounge with an outdoor terrace overlooking 6th Avenue and that's about it apart from a very small gym area so, if you want a restaurant, a concierge and bellhops, this is not the place for you. Otherwise, although it's a bit pricey (this is prime location New York) it's nevertheless a hard to beat package and the upper floor Parade View rooms have spectacular views down onto Herald Square and up 6th Avenue to Central Park. In short, I'd be very happy to stay again. One tip is that the building is on the corner of 35th and 6th with the entrance on West 35th Street marked as 8 Herald Square not 71 West 35th. Another is that the entrance is shared with the Monarch Roof Bar which occupies the top of the building and at night offers stunning views of the Empire State Building.

Excellent location, easy access, a metro station right next to the building, perfect value over price They allowed me to do an early check in which was life saving

the front desk lady was amazing. when we got to the room it was clean and beautiful with an amazing view. it was very spacious in the room too which we loved.

Great location

Perfect location to access all parts of Manhattan and Brooklyn. Subway right outside the hotel door. The beds were very comfortable and the shower was lovely. The rooms were clean and tidy!
