Pod 39 is a really quirky hotel. Located on 39 street. Hotel is in a great location to explore New York. Close to Grand Central and around a 10-15 minute walk up Times Square. Rooms are well presented. I think you would only be able to use the bathroom in the room if you was intimate with the person you... More

I have stayed at Aloft (by W) properties, and I thought that Pod39 was a similar concept so I chose to stay here (alone) to save a few bucks. However, the bed is a platform bed, and the bedding was mediocre, and while not the most uncomfortable bed i have slept on, i wouldn't stay here again. Also, the shower... More

We took a photo of my husband standing with arms outstretched and touching both walls at the same time. It's super cosy but had everything we needed and clever bits for small spaces. Given that it's NYC we were never in the room except to sleep and to get changed for dinner and show. Fabulously located 2 blocks from central... More

Pod 39 is ideal for someone who wants to stay more time outside the hotel than in the room. The room itself is tiny - really small - with very few amenities. It is clean, well designed and well organized. My room had a bed, a small table ... and that's it! The bathroom - I asked for one just... More

I wasn't sure what to expect so I booked a double room for two nights. They were overbooked so I got a single bed room for the first night. The room was small, with comfortable bed, contemporary furnishings, desk, clothes rack, safe, TV on wall, excellent wi-fi, and storage drawer under the bed. Bath was very modern and clean. The...

Hotel is in a good location. Grand Central is a few blocks away. Rooms we small and bed was very small but the hotel served it's purpose. Has a really cool rooftop bar. Price was right. Will absolutely stay here again.

Great location and good looking, The Pod is great for anyone who doesn't plan on staying in their room for most of their trip. The rooms are tiny, but clean and efficient, and the beds comfortable. Free wifi that's actually working adds to the value. I'm definitely coming back.

The good points are the location, friendly check in, buzzy bar with two table tennis tables. The bad points are that the name of the hotel Pod is an accurate description of the bedroom which was tiny! The rail to hang clothes is over the side table next to the bed. The basin is so small that it is inevitable... More
