The New York Marriott Marquis Hotel, in the Times Square theater district of midtown Manhattan, is a world-class New York City hotel that sparkles with newly renovated hotel rooms, high-speed elevators, and 6 hotel restaurants and lounges. Famous for its renowned Marriott service, this NYC hotel is perfect for weekend getaways, business, family and leisure travel. The New York Marriott Marquis Hotel is within walking distance of the Broadway theater district, Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue shopping, Radio City Music Hall, Rockefeller Center & NBC studio tours, Saint Patrick's Cathedral, and Central Park Zoo. Also nearby are Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, UN, and the Empire State Building. The Marriott Marquis is also a perfect hotel when attending sporting or musical events at Madison Square Garden.
The Scene This 50-story hotel takes up an entire city block and has hunkered over Times Square since 1985. It's a glitzy chrome-and-aluminum amusement park complete with a revolving lounge, faux foliage and glass-enclosed elevators that zoom up and down at breakneck speeds. The 37-story-high atrium lobby is in itself a tourist attraction.
The Details The oversized accommodations are all surprisingly quiet and are labeled "The Room that Works" with their large console table with two power outlets, a PC modem jack, a moveable task light and an ergonomic chair. Upstairs rests The View, New York's only revolving rooftop restaurant and lounge. Other restaurant choices include a steakhouse, sushi bar, deli and casual cafe. If you want to ring in the New Year on Times Square, consider reserving for the "Party Within a Party," the hotel's annual gala, complete with champagne, dinner, dancing, entertainment and a laser light show.

A great spot in the heart of Times Square. Once you enter the building, you will be greeted and treated with excellent customer service. Your room will be your escape from the busy sounds of the great streets of NYC. Many conferences and company related events are held there - however - your needs are met at the moment of your requests.

Great central Manhattan location. Clean, updated inside. Highly recommend you visit the bar on the top floor - the outside revolves around the middle, giving you a view of each side of the hotel within an hour. Recommend the Mojito's in July.

Worst bar in NYC !
By NYbaby87
I just hate the bar on top - "The View" !!! Aside from the view that's fantastic, there's really nothing to it. The staff is very rude. I always get asked if I have 21 in the worst possible way. Last time my family dragged me there I had to listen to the waiter explain to my mom that there is alcohol in the strawberry margarita - like she was some kind of moron.
Once you order you can NEVER get them to come again and unserve your plates or bring you something additional. The cocktails are nasty - too sugary and/or watery, tasteless. There's also no dress code and it seems like they let just about anyone in there. Bad place.
Pros: view of the city Cons: price, quality, rude staff

In the heart of Times Square this place is really first class in all its aspects. From the service to the rooms to the revolving restaurant around NYC on the 66th floor. The place is $$$$$ but you can tell exactly what you are paying for when you stay there.
Pros: Location, Service, Restaurant Cons: $$$

Fabulous Hotel and Location
By escalera23
Every time I come to New York I always stay at the Marriott Marquis Time Square. The hotel is located in a great part of the city (TIME SQUARE) and is near all the local attractions. Even though you are in the heart of the city you never hear the hustle and bustle from your room, which is very nice. The rooms are spacious and checking in is always fast and efficient. The rates may change depending on the time of year you visit, but it is well worth the extra money you had planned on spending. Great place, great location, great rooms, what more could you ask for?!!!!

Great Location, Great View
By jetski42
We loved staying at the Marriott Marquis. The location is 2nd to none being right in the Heart of Times Square. More than enough elevators to service the number of people using them. The longest wait for an elevator was maybe 2 minutes. Located very close to the many Broadway shows. Many subway stations within a couple of blocks to take you anywhere in the city you want to go. Sushi restaurant is fair. Hotel Staff was very friendly and professional. Molinda at the front desk was especially pleasant and friendly. We loved her.

My personal favorite
By dminster
It was really much more than I expected. Great service, very conveniently located, great food, and great price. If you are in the neighborhood and looking for a very luxurious stay, no matter how long, you have to stay here! You should see these elevators; a great addition to this already enjoyable stay. Walk outside and see it all; attractions for everybody, tourists and businessmen.
