First time staying at this hotel. My daughter and I really enjoyed it. The room is clean and bright, with a large window. full-size kitchen with refrigerator, stove, microwave and coffee maker. There are also dishes. great bed, hot shower. breakfast was included (from 6:30 to 10 am). you could have a good breakfast (it’s just better to come to breakfast early, otherwise there will be a lot of people later). A happy hour 5-6:30 pm. the staff is polite. good location of the hotel. 10 minutes from the peen station. we will definitely stay here again. and we will most likely use the kitchen more next time.

Times Square, Manhattan: Flashy Neon Lights and World-Class Culture

Step into the heart of Manhattan at Element Times Square West. With Bryant Park, Broadway theaters, Madison Square Garden, and Penn Station all just minutes away, the city is truly at your doorstep.

Times Square is at the intersection of Broadway and Seventh Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. The famous address—affectionately known as “the Crossroads of the World”—is home to hypnotizing billboards, giant wraparound news tickers, and the neon lights of Broadway. Beyond the glitz and gimmicks, there are a number of cultural offerings in the area, ranging from museums to Michelin-rated restaurants. Buildings of historical and architectural interest include the Paramount Building and One Times Square, site of the annual New Year's Eve ball drop.

Nearby, the Museum of Modern Art houses a trove of masterpieces including Vincent van Gogh's The Starry Night, Claude Monet's Water Lilies paintings, and Andy Warhol's Campbell's Soup Cans. Save time for a stroll through the museum's outdoor sculpture garden, where installations are clustered around sparkling reflecting pools. About a mile north of Times Square, the David H. Koch Theater is home to one of the world’s foremost dance companies—the New York City Ballet, which stages contemporary works as well as classics like Swan Lake and The Nutcracker.

Don’t book this hotel if your schedule is packed or if you are an impatient guest Unacceptable elevator system The elevator system is very scary as one of the elevators is under repair for a few months now. During peak hours in the am and evening the wait will be at least 15-20 mins. If you are in a hurry with suitcases to airports or trains be prepared to leave at least 30 mins Some will just walk down the stairs (this hotel has 40 floors tall !

Hotel Review – Stay from July 25–27, 2025 This was my second time staying at this hotel. I was checked in by a very professional front desk agent (unfortunately, I didn’t catch his name), who provided all the necessary information clearly and courteously. The location is a highlight — just steps from Times Square, Madison Square Garden, and right next to Port Authority. It’s surrounded by many restaurants and easy access to public transportation. While the area does have a noticeable presence of homeless individuals, they appeared harmless during my visit. As with any major city, I recommend using common sense, especially if you're out late at night. The rooms are equipped with a mini kitchenette, which is a big plus. It includes a full-size fridge, sink, two-burner stove, dishwasher, microwave, and coffee maker. They also provide silverware, dishes, mugs, pots, dish detergent, and a sponge — very convenient for longer stays. That said, there are quite a few areas that need improvement. The room I stayed in (Room 304) wasn’t fully functional. There was what appeared to be an empty drawer on top of the desk, but I couldn’t determine it’s purpose. The overall cleanliness of the room left much to be desired. The in-room phone had no cord — it seemed more decorative than operational. The bathroom design was also questionable. There were no proper shelves in the shower to place toiletries, so I had to balance my soap on the safety bar. I initially thought there was no towel rack, but later found it oddly placed behind the bathroom door — out of sight and far from the shower, where it would have been more useful. The room didn’t include laundry bags, and the only toiletries provided were a hand soap and a single makeup remover pad — thankfully, I brought my own toiletries. Whoever installed the kitchen drawers didn’t consider functionality: opening them fully is blocked by the dishwasher door, making it hard to access utensils unless you reach deep inside. The lobby was constantly busy, and only two elevators were operational. Thankfully, I was on the 3rd floor and could take the stairs. During my stay, the mobile key system was also down. Despite the flaws, I have to say the bed, comforter, and pillows were very comfortable. Even with some noise from what seemed to be a housekeeping closet nearby, I still managed a good night’s sleep — probably due to how tired I was. In conclusion, while the hotel has many conveniences and a prime location, there are operational and maintenance issues that need to be addressed. I’m willing to give them another chance in the future to see if they’ve improved.

I was charged $250 as a deposit on 22nd June and post the check out on 2nd july, I have not received any refund till date. On contacting mariott they redirected me to my booking agency which has got nothing to do with the deposit as it was charged on my card by the hotel upon arrival. There was no charge in my invoice during my check out, so there should be no deduction from my deposit as well. I really don't understand this policy and reading other reviews assures some sort of purposeful delay in all deposits.
