Formerly a Comfort Inn, the Lord & Moris is a simple budget hotel with trendier style than its predecessor. The hotel's high-trafficked location is noisy and charmless, but Times Square, the Theater District, and Bryant Park are all within an easy walk. The location is the main draw, but first compare rates to the Econo Lodge Times Square, another value hotel in Midtown West that's worth a look.
Location
Close to Times Square, but even closer to the Port Authority Bus Depot; it's convenient, but not very pretty
The Lord & Moris is a bit of a walk from the dazzling marquees of Times Square, but if you walk just five minutes, you'll end up in the heat of the action.
Though once seedy, Times Square was reborn in the mid-'90s as a commercialized tourist haven, lit by 24-hour flashing billboards and theme restaurants. Today, visitors walking the streets are more likely to be accosted by a comedy-club promoter, a rickshaw bicycle operator, or a caricature artist than a mugger. It's crowded, but there's something unquestionably exhilarating -- and convenient -- about staying in the neon-lit heart of the city.
