We decided to spend our 33rd wedding anniversary in New York City and we certainly made the right choice by staying at the Westin Grand Central. Mr. Britt made this special weekend, fantastic and most memorable. We only made a simple request and he took the time, interest and the personal touch to show his concern for his guests. This...

Beautiful hotel with amazing guest services! Alexandria and Hoda were incredible. Thanks to both for making our stay so wonderful. We were there to get married and Alexandria made sure that we enjoyed every minute of our stay, Hoda was a great help in finding late night spots to go.

This Westin is conveniently located near Grand Central Station and several subway lines, making getting anywhere quite easy. The hotel renovation is superb and seems complete from roof to basement. This is unusual for many Westin's because often times they are completed in stages and look mismatched and incomplete. Rooms are beautifully renovated, as are corridors, meeting floors, and entrance... More

This was booked directly by my office in NY. As it was only a short stay and location was good decided not to shop around. Nothing really wrong with this place but having stayed at Westin hotels before my expectations were higher. Service on check-in was close to rude and rooms were functional but certainly not luxury. Probably wouldn't choose... More

We chose this hotel for our 3day girlfriend weekend in NYC. Overall I thought the hotel was very good. Location is awesome, service some days was excellent and other days just ok... However when asked the staff always tried to make up for it. I enjoyed the smaller lobby as I found it very easy to navigate this hotel. Restaurant/bar... More

This was a last minute fly-by-the -seat of my pants trip to New York and the Westin Grand Central did not disappoint!! I specifically chose the location so I would be close to the subway and not in noisy Times Square. Fantastic staff and clean/comfortable/quiet room with a view ensured a great stay! Thanks for the fun weekend!

I stayed at the Westin on June 8th with my wife and daughter who was celebrating her 12th birthday. After a long day full of activities, I was looking forward to checking in and getting a good night's sleep. While the hotel itself was extremely nice--a clean, comfortable room on the 39th floor with a view of the Empire State... More

We had read the reviews which have ranged from good to mediocre...amittedly many of the worst reviews were just after the conversion to Westin. We booked using points. I am a lifetime Gold SPG. Our room was on the 36th floor and out the window the Empire State Building was framed by two office buildings...very pretty. Check in was fast... More
