Top hotels in Kensington
Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel
Great place very clean close to many locations. Loved that our room was big and came with two full body mirrors. Staff was great and so helpful when we asked for directions !! I would give it 5 stars however check-in was 2 and a half hours long I have never waited that long to check into a hotel ...

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.
