Hyatt Regency Times Square
The room was clean and the staff was friendly and efficient. Though there isn't a restaurant in the hotel, there are literally dozens of options right out the front door. It would be nice to have a room service option, however.

NEW YORKER BY LOTTE HOTELS
I spend 100 nights a year in NYC and always try to stay at the New Yorker if it's available and reasonably-priced. I would stay there every one of those 100 nights if I could. It's clean, convenient, provides great service and just reliable.
