Best Value at the Wolcott - user review Close to shopping and attractions but in a quiet neighborhood you get the best bang for the buck at the Wolcott.

location and value - user review Having read the other reviews, we were prepared for what we got. The room was pretty large for the price but as spare was you might expect. Large closest is puzzling.

Count on the Wolcott! - user review I had just checked into the Wolcott when the blackout of 2003 hit. No one after me could get a room, because the card keys couldn't be programmed; but the Wolcott staff handled the situation admirably, bedding down dozens of people in their lobby. It's centrally located in midtown, within walking di... brooklyn.citysearch.com

Hotel Wolcott Don´t believe the hype - user review I was not expecting luxury, but a good bargain and comfortable place to stay that is not what I received.

I sat through thre... brooklyn.citysearch.com

QUIET rooms, fabulous staff - user review I've stayed at the Wolcott twice and was wowed by it each time. It's centrally located on the island, yet is on a quieter side street (31st). I like that when I'm there, I can walk anywhere AND I'm not stuck up in the Disneyfied tourist trap that the Times Square area is becoming. The staff always w... brooklyn.citysearch.com
Clean, comfy, quiet - user review My boyfriend and I stayed at the Hotel Wolcott on a Saturday and Sunday night. The room was small, but we did little more in there than sleep, so that was fine.

We found a great deal! - user review My friend and I stayed at The Hotel Wolcott recently and were a little worried about what kind of room we'd get for only $99 per night.

Good CLEAN Hotel - user review My husband and I just returned from NYC (December 2002). We stayed at the Hotel Wolcott and thought it was pretty good.

Great view of Empire State Building - user review We recently stayed at Hotel Wolcott for one week. The clean, comfortable room had two twin beds and a nice bathroom. It was definitely big enough for two people. The best part was the view. Our room was on the 12th floor and had a great view of the Empire State Building. If you stay at the Wolcott, ... brooklyn.citysearch.com
Not fancy, but... - user review You will be happy with this hotel if you are pretty much independent and believe that a hotel room is just for sleeping at night. Most of the room's floor area was occupied by the oversized bed and there was not much room to move around or open your luggage. Hotel staff didn't seem very willing to h... brooklyn.citysearch.com

What You´d Expect for the Price - user review I was a bit concerned when I made my reservation at the Hotel Wolcott. It seemed as if any hotel in Manhattan for less than $200 a night would be a dump. Nevertheless, $180 a night isn't cheap and I expected a certain level ... epinions.com
Wolcott Hotel budget hotel plus great location! - user review My husband and I stayed at Wolcott hotel in June 2005 for three nights.

SHOULD BE RENAMED "THE BATES HOTEL" - user review My husband and I were told by a friend that this was a decent economical hotel. I believe we paid $137 a night and stayed 6 nights. The lobby of the hotel looks rather opulent, but believe meit ends right there. The elevator... epinions.com
Discomfort with a Touch of Class - user review This was our first and only trip to New York. We were only staying one night, so we did not want to liquidate our life savings on a super luxurious hotel room. After thumbing through a New York travel guide, we found the Wo... epinions.com
Infested With Cockroaches! - user review Every floor in this hotel is absolutely infested with cockroaches of all sizes. We kept asking to switch rooms, and still, more cockroaches from the 2nd floor to the 11th. DO NOT STAY HERE!

Forget Wilcott, more like Will NOT!!! - user review This hotel was a breeding ground for cockroaches! In fact they are so prevalent that I'm sure they'll be in charge of the front desk soon. Everything from a horrible concierge (if you could even call it that), to one very old barely working elevator, stinky hallways, freezing rooms and staff who loo... fodors.com
Roaches were everywhere - user review We made reservations in May 2005 for a two night stay in September 2005. Not only were we given a microscopic room (barely enough room on only one side to get out); hardly even adequate for one person, let alone two! The bathroom was full of roaches. Every time you picked something up, at least thre... fodors.com

No title - user review I would never recommend this hotel. Initially we thought the place would have old world charm being 100 years old. But the hotel hasn't been updated in 100 years. The rooms are dark, dank and they smell, specifically of stale cigarettes. This hotel needs some serious upgrading. My windows had tape a... mytravelguide.com
No title - user review Nice Hotel overall. Close to popular tourist spots (Times Sq, Empire state 3 blocks away, etc). Green subway only 3 blocks away, blue and yellow are only a bit farther. Central location for trips to downtown and uptown. Will definitely stay there again on a return trip because I'd rather spend money... mytravelguide.com

No title - user review Very rude staff, and the rooms suggest you are staying in a halfway house, not a hotel. The smell of cigarette smoke and fried food was disgusting. While the location is convenient, this hotel should not be offered to anyone other than the budget traveler And at $180 a night, it hardly qualifies for... mytravelguide.com
