Welcome to New York's Hotel Pennsylvania. It's one of the five largest hotels in Manhattan (over 1700 rooms!) with an impressive history. Its location in the heart of midtown is directly opposite Madison Square Garden and Amtrak's Penn Station. Macy's, the world's largest department store, is one block up the street. The Empire State building, it's around the corner. The Javits Center, it's a few blocks away. So too is the Theatre District. New York's Hotel Pennsylvania is in the center of the action.

I stayed at this hotel for a three day weekend. Let's start with one of the few good things about this hotel. The location is SPECTACULAR!! This hotel is located right in the center of midtown New York City. Right across from Penn Station and Madison Square Garden and VERY to the Empire State Building and Times Square. Hotel Penn was built in 1919, go a floor or more down or up from the main lobby and you can definetly tell. The hotel's website says it was renovated recently, it was, but only the lobby. The hallways remind me of the titanic, very wide, large, and gloomy. My bathroom tile was rotting and the bed post had a piece of wood missing. But it gave us everything we needed.

The check-in was like a cattle mart. It took me over 3 hours to check in. I tried 6 rooms before I found one in which the air conditioning was working. The shower area was dirty. The wardrobe consisted of a dark, tight, small hole in the wall which had a couple of wire hangers in it. I ate twice in the hotel. Each time a service charge of 18% was added even though there was no mention of this in the menu. In fact in the second case it explicitly said that such a charge would only be added for parties of 6 or more. We were a party of 2 and yet the waiter tried to add on this enormous service charge for what was, quite frankly, poor service. In short the corridors in the hotel reminded me of 'broadway' in Alcatraz.
Our three night stay there set me back over $500. Be warned. It is a hotel which should be given a very wide berth.

Mediocre
It obviously was a grand hotel at one time but not anymore.Shabby looking and frankly 1700 rooms would be difficult to really pay attention to.“Great location. Use it just for sleeping...

Every year I go for my vacation to New York, and every time I do, I stay at the Pennsylvania hotel.
This hotel is great, the people who work there are very, very nice and helpful. The location of the hotel is perfect! This year it is my seventh time to stay at this hotel, and I love it!

Okay
Location.Crowded lobby, long waits in line, small room, not enough space to work.“For an overnight, it's fine. It's convenient, but gets a lot of groups and families and can be noisy, the lobby crowded...
