LilMermaid75 Posted February 15, 2011 #1 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Is this too far away from everything? We'll be sailing out of Manhattan, coming in the day before. Will it be a pain to get to the port in the morning (we sail on a weekday)? I found a great rate and thought this might be a nice place to stay. It looks like it gets pretty good reviews. Thanks!

Even if you sail on a weekday, getting a taxi won't be an issue if you plan to leave the hotel around 11am or later. As for it being far away from everything, it's pretty close to Grand Central Station, which has several nice boutiques and a good food court in the lower level. Plus, you'll have easy/fast access to the subways there. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll have to walk a bit (not too bad) to Times Square and 5th Avenue.

Thanks![/quote'] In my opinion, nothing in Manhattan is too far away from anything. No matter where you are, there is always a good subway, bus line, or cab. There are attractions all over the city. If you got a good rate, go for it. Personally, I think being in middle of Times Square is a bad location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
