Top Kensington Hotel Reviews

Hotel Edison Times Square

10/10 Excellent

"great breakfast deal, friendly staff, perfect location for broadway"

PUBLIC, an Ian Schrager hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We liked the room layout. For NY, it worked great for us. Room floor was a bit dirty and the smoke alarm blinks all night which can be distracting trying to sleep, but maybe that's how they work. Ours at home blink only when they need attention. Overall, we will stay again."
