We stayed at the Westin Grand Central for 4 nights at the end of April. The location is great (the thing with NYC is if you are close to some things you’re kind of far from others so you have to pick where is most important for you to be within walking distance). We walked to Times Square, Rockefeller etc... More

Nice clean hotel that can be competitively priced at times. Rooms were new and very clean. Busy lobby with a bar and restaurant. We had a drink at the bar and the service was good. I have stayed here twice and have been very satisfied each time. The location is a little out of the action but it is convenient... More

A quick stay, but great front desk supervisor and Dennis at the door was so helpful finding me a cab to the airport. He was friendly and very good at his job!! I felt bad that i had no cash to tip him. Please know that I'll be back and plan to return to the Westin Grand Central.

Superior in every way - lay-out, facilities, equipment, cleanliness Is second to none. Staff, from bottom to top were very focused, extraordinarily professional and very friendly. Efficiency is something that comes naturally and pride on all aspects of their work underlines a superlative service. The rooms are large and luxurious, and every facility one might require was available. A delight... More

A decent experience, and good for NYC, but well below what you might be used to staying at other Westin Hotels. Small things lacking that made it feel like something you would find at a lesser chain. Plus considerably more busy and loud (even by NYC standards) in the common areas. Very good location and decent price made an acceptable... More

After a long day being awake for over 24 hours we arrived at The Westin. We were greeted with a smile and within minutes we got to our room. After walking to the nearest drugstore (2 minutes max) we took a nice hot shower and got in to one of the best beds I've ever slept in. We did get... More

The good stuff: great location, and typical [great] Westin quality/decor. The bad stuff: housekeeping staff that's out to lunch, and CS that can't keep track of them. I stayed at this location for six nights. On the second day (first opportunity to have room cleaned by the maid), my room didn't get cleaned. I'd be out for about 4 hours... More

All the Westin Hotels have been very nice places to stay. The hotel is very close to Grand Central station for connections all over NYC. We were on 38th floor...very quiet. The coffee shop has Stumptown coffee...great coffee. We had breakfast one morning only. The Starbucks coffee is available in your room. Nice amenities.
