I can't hear you
If you want to sleep any earlier than midnight, don't get anywhere below floor 10. The noise from the bar is magnified up the builiding and into your teeeeeeennnnnyy tiiiinnnnnyyyy room.

Don't be scared!
After winning a room through Priceline, I checked reviews on this Hudson Hotel. "Oh no!" I thought. I was taking my 2 twenty-something daughters on a fun 4 day trip to Manhattan and wanted everything to be perfect. Well...from our first view of the hotel lobby to our last goodbye to the staff, it was absolutely pleasant! Yes...the rooms ARE small, but if the 3 of us could do it, you can too. Our room on the 7th floor was always very clean, beautiful, and came with a very comfortable bed. The heating element IS noisy, but it worked and we were so pooped at night that it didn't bother us at all. The location is great. Away from the zoo of Midtown, but right next to Columbus Circle subways and Central Park entrance. There is a great sushi restaurant 3 doors down, a cafe called The Flame across the street that has a great (and quick) breakfast, and some very good pizza at John's, also a few doors down. The hallways weren't as dark as I was expecting. There is free coffee in the c...Read more

The Worst Hotel!!!!!
If you feel like wasting your money on a room the size of a 10' x 10' box and the worst service ever, than stay here. The Staff as well as the Managers that work at he hudson hotel have no clue on how to provide service. Who the Hell is Running that Place? and What's with that smell?

Do Not Stay At The Hudson
I stayed at this overpriced hotel this past weekend for just one night, and it was one of the worst experiences I've had in terms of customer service and incompetence.
First off, I tried to pay with my debit card and they claimed that they could not "get it to work", so they insisted that I go get cash. After walking 6 blocks to find my bank to withdraw the $500, I returned and paid in cash. Today, I checked my balance and they had deducted $1250 from my debit card, in addition to the $500 I paid in cash. When they "could not get my debit card to work", they were actually charging me multiple times. I am lucky I just happened to go to the bank today to cash a check because, had I not, I would have bounced my next couple of checks due to their HUGE error. Then when I went back to fix the mistake, they made me feel like it was my fault that they messed up!
After that, the place was mediocre at best... def not even close to worth the price. As trendy as this place tries to be,...Read more

Memorable, Hip & Stylish
My wife and I were celebrating our fifth wedding anniversary and we planned to spend a weekend in New York. Our goal was to eat at one of the finest restaurants, see a classic broadway play, take a horse and buggy ride through central park, hop from club to club and then spend the evening it a great Hotel. Well we did it all and our night at the Hudson was one not to be forgotten. We left the streets of New york only to find an excillerating hip crowd at the hotel lounge/club. When we returned to our room we found it extremely comfortable and intimate. The european style bathrooms, optional shower view, and quality decorative woodwork made for a most pleasurable and memorable evening. After our first stay we will be sure to make another vist the next time we are in town.
