Find Cheap Hotels in Central New York City, NY

"Our recent stay at the Aura Hotel Times Square was outstanding. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the seamless check-in process and the warm, professional welcome from the front desk staff. The location is unbeatable—just steps from Times Square, Broadway theaters, and a short walk to major subway lines, yet surprisingly quiet and peaceful inside the hotel. It's the perfect balance of central convenience and calm retreat. Our room was immaculately clean and well-appointed with thoughtful amenities like a Nespresso machine, and high-speed Wi-Fi. The bed was comfortable, and the blackout curtains ensured a perfect night’s sleep—something that can be hard to find in Midtown Manhattan! If you’re looking for a stylish, welcoming, and perfectly located hotel in New York City, look no further than the Aura Hotel Times Square. It’s a hidden gem."

"Good location. Good stuff. "

"Very nice and central."

"Very good location, close to metro. Room was good size (for NY standards) with comfortable bed. There were renovations going on so lobby was quite crowded at times. Also, my room on 12th floor was a bit noisy from 7th ave daily life."

"We took our dog with us and she started to cry when we left. The wonderful woman working with the construction company had an office next to our room. She watched our dog while we attended our daughter’s graduation without worrying. The staff is nice. They take a long time if at all to answer the front desk when I call. We called for blankets and no one ever came. Ms. Racquel was so wonderful. She was so professional, very nice, went above and beyond for us!"
