Hotel St. James

This hotel is in a perfect location. The rooms are a good size for a NYC hotel but the hotel is an older hotel. The benefit is some great character but the downside is the radiator heat which was very hot. The staff was very friendly. I will plan to stay here in the future!

Hotel was simple and older but clean and a great location - close to Times Sqaure, subway station, and theatres. Cranberry deli next door was a great place for breakfast, snacks, and cold water for the day. Quite pleased with the location - staff could be a bit less abrupt.

Daytime front desk person was awesome. So helpful to us and everyone that can into the lobby

We stayed four nights here in mid-July 2013. The rooms were really nice and larger than we expected for this price and location. We had to move to another room on the third night because the first room (4th floor on the front of the hotel) was too close to the trash pick-up in the bottom of the building across the street. The truck ran for a couple of hours each night. The staff immediately gave us another room on the 7th floor in the center of the hotel, and it was MUCH quieter. The bathroom in the second room was much nicer, too. It was clear this hotel had been recently renovated, and both rooms were very nice inside. The hallways and elevator need a little work, but this was a minor problem. The staff were all pretty friendly and after a day or so readily recognized us as we entered and left the hotel. There are virtually no amenities, and one of the staff told us 'We're just a simple establishment.' There is a great deli (Cranberry Deli) a few doors down, and the hotel is less t...

Wonderful location, fantastic price. Old hotel but the basics are covered and it was clean.

The hotel was at the perfect location. Close to Times Square, but far enough away from all of the noise of Times Square. Also really close to the 47-50 Sts - Rock Center Subway that takes you up to the Bronx if you are going to a game at Yankee Stadium.

Based on the desire for several items hard to come by in NYC at bargain prices (two beds, own bath, clean, locattion), this met the mark. Hotel is small and rooms are old, but very clean, right on Broadway and Times Square, very kind and helpful staff. Not a single complaint. If you want cheap, clean, and safe at a decent theatre district location, this is it.

This is townhouse-style hotel with many floors. It has two small elevators so that sometimes there is a wait to go up or down. It is an old hotel, so there are issues, such as not being able to take a bath (only a shower) because there was a leak into the room below. The room was large and very adequate for a family of four. There were very few amenities. No food, but excellent Delis right next door. The internet was free, but very slow in the room. It seemed to be faster and acceptable in the lobby. A huge plus is the excellent location in the Theatre District.

If you are on a budget and need a hotel to just sleep in, this is the perfect place. My mother and I visited Times Square for the first time in December and this hotel was perfectly located. Just a few minutes walk from the heart of Times Square, right down the street from many theaters in the Theater District, and probably a 15 or so minute walk to Rockafellar Center. We stayed for two nights and did not need to take one cab, everything in Times Square is in walking distance. The quality of the hotel is good too. An old fashioned place with actual keys to unlock your room. The room was on the small side but it was there for what we needed it to be there for - sleeping. Because of the location and cheap price, I would absolutely stay here again.
