A perfect stay in New York City from the moment we arrived. Convenient parking garage right next door with hotel validation provided a nice savings. The friendly staff greeted us and were so helpful to us throughout our stay. We enjoyed our breakfast by the fireplace each morning. The hotel’s location is perfect to see a broadway show and enjoy Times Square. We will definitely be back!

Theaterland gem
We were looking for a place to stay that was convenient for the theater district while at the same time quiet. The Casablanca more than met our needs. This is an older, european-style hotel that has been lovingly cared for. The second floor sitting room, where breakfast is provided, is a delightful resting spot at any time, with coffee/tea and snacks available all day. The staff were welcoming and helpful throughout our stay and returning to this hotel from the streets crowded with December tourists was a pleasure. We are already looking forward to visiting again.

First the service is impeccable. "Welcome home" were the first words we heard once we checked in. The staff simply could not be more outstanding. We received prompt, helpful and courteous attention with each request that we made. Second, the hotel is quiet and serene, despite the fact that it is right at Times Square! My only "complaint"--not really a complaint but more a style issue--is that the hotel is very traditional in decor. My sister loved it and I liked it. All in all, this hotel cannot be topped for the location, service and serenity. -Karen Armstrong

This hotel is in the heart of Times Square. If you're in NYC in order to go to see Broadway shows, then other than camping out in the theater itself you're not going to be able to get any closer. Harry Potter: 5 minute walk. Kimberly Akimbo: 3 minute walk. Here Lies Love: 10 minute walk. "& Juliet" 30 second walk. Times Square subway: 2 minute walk. We flew into Newark and took the Newark Express which is run by Coach USA. For $35 _round trip_, it took us 1h to get from Newark to Bryant Park (and then about a 3m walk to get to the hotel). On the way back (Saturday morning at 7:30A), it was 25m bus ride. The breakfast which was provided was coffee, tea, espresso, and various waters and sodas. There was fresh fruit, packaged cereal, hardboiled eggs and pastries / bagels. That's the good stuff. Here's the rest: We were in Room 308. I don't know if the other rooms in the hotel are the same way, but it's an old property. The bathroom is modern, but the toilet is literally against a support structure; I'm only 6 feet tall, but I had to sit either "side saddle" or "wide stance" so that my knees wouldn't hit the wall in front of me! Granted, you don't spend too much time on the toilet, but it was still odd. Staff was gracious, and was always opening the door, greeting us, etc.

Staff was very friendly and go out of their way to ensure you’re well taken care of. Our room was spacious by NYC standards (deluxe queen) with all the amenities, and very clean. For being in the middle of the action, we were surprised how quiet it was. Parking was close and easy, and I doubt you’ll find cheaper in TS. 10/10, would definitely book again!

It was a 2 block walk from the subway and literally 1 block from Times Square. This will be my go to hotel for any future visits. We have highly recommended this hotel to all our friends and family.

I loved the staff and their warm, welcoming ways; everyone from the front desk, to Rick's Cafe, to the cleaning staff was super polite, super professional, super friendly, and super helpful. We did not require transportation, therefore, I did not check it. This was not an issue for us, but anyone 6' or taller would have felt a little cramped in the bathroom. It's an old building that is beautifully redone and I expect each room is a little unique from the next so maybe ask about bathroom size/amenities (i.e. we had no tub but a very ample shower) if that's a concern for you. We absolutely loved our stay!!

Perhaps replace the decorative cushions in the rooms as well as there are just darn old.

My husband and I stayed at the Casablanca for 4 nights to celebrate a birthday and anniversary. We couldn’t have been more thrilled with our entire stay! From the welcome we received, the ease of reservation, the wonderful customer service at the Front Desk (Jeff, Dimitri), Breakfast Bar, and prompt daily housekeeping. The hotel is an older building (don’t expect huge rooms, marble bathrooms, or big elevators), but is extremely charming and very unique which was exactly what we were looking for. We stayed in the Petite Queen on the 6th floor which didn’t come with a refrigerator, but when I requested one, Brian kindly accommodated and there was a small fridge in our room upon check in. It’s also very quiet, which is great since Times Square is one block away. Brian also arranged to have 2 post cards printed and personalized for the birthday and anniversary. I’d read all of the positive reviews on this place and am happy to say the Casablanca lived up to all and even exceeded them! We can’t wait to return.
