A night in NYC
DH's birthday falls on a Saturday this year and I wanted to surprise him with a night in NYC. I looked online at hotels and some of them don't have great reviews... has anyone stayed in NYC and would recommend a hotel?
TIA

I like the W in Times Square - the rooms are newer...if you're looking for a romantic place theInn at Irving Place is nice, but pricey.

Re: A night in NYC
I'm looking for near Penn Station but it's ok to take the subway if I have to.

Re: A night in NYC
I would not recommend Le Parker Meridien. 
We never stayed there, but the Washington Square Hotel is supposed to be nice. There's a great restaurant, North Square, on the ground floor. The food is great- we've been meaning to go back. We'd decided to stay here if we ever do another overnight in NYC. It got mostly good reviews on Trip Advisor. It's also in a great neighborhood.

Why? I work across the street and a lot of my clients and co-workers from other offices stay there. They have had nothing but great reviews for their stays.

We stayed a the W in Times Square a few years back for DH's birthday...you only have to take the subway one stop from Penn. We loved it!

We stayed there for our wedding weekend-booked a room for us and a room for DH's cousin and his wife. They made such a mess of our reservations. It took a good half hour to get everything straigtened out. I wouldn't have cared if we weren't paying so much to stay there.

Re: A night in NYC
The Milford Plaza had some good deals on hotels.com.
Is money a factor??? The W's are really nice, but expensive and the rooms are so teeny!!!
I love the Soho Grand.
The only time I've stayed in a hotel in NYC though was during the transit strike a few weeks ago. DH and I had booked a studio apartment through hotels.com. Really cheap ($85 + tax), clean, great location (73rd & Broadway) FM me if you need details.

Yes, money is a factor, I didn't want to spend more than $250.00 on a hotel room
