The location was close to a subway stop, and the neighborhood felt safe. They allowed us to check in early. The room was decent - a little small, but good value for the money.

Andrea

Good breakfasts, food in the evening. Happy to have taxis available outside.

Nancy

For the money, it was a great overnight stay before sailing on a cruise from the Manhattan Pier. Good location, within walking distance of Time Square for a quick tour before the cruise.

Jeanette

United States of America

Location was perfect, quiet street but still close to everything. Staff was very accommodating.

Brennan

United States of America

Very well located, at walk distance from Time Square and center city (10-15 min). The service was very good, a notable bar on lobby, clear room and spacious. Really good quality for the reasonable price.

Robert

After reading some of the reviews about The Watson, we were concerned at what to expect. We need not have worried, the hotel is a good hotel, in a good location, with a good price. I would recommend The Watson to anyone staying in expensive New York.

The Subway station Columbus Circle is 10 minutes away walking and it's an all connection terminal to all the NY attractions: Brooklyn, Downtown, JFK airport, World Trade Center, New Jersey, Bronx, Madison Square, 5th avenue and more.

There should be somewhere do get drinking water and re-fill a water bottle. Complimentary coffee (other than the small pot in the room with powdered creamer) should be available. Our heating/air did not work properly. The thermostat did not work, and the room was stuffy.
The location was close to a subway stop, and the neighborhood felt safe. They allowed us to check in early. The room was decent - a little small, but good value for the money.
