Four Points by Sheraton Midtown-Times Square
I have stayed many times at this Four Points Midtown Times Square property, but this is only the second or third that I've been upgraded to the Penthouse Suite. It's fantastic.
Check In
Check in was easy and quick. They thanked me for my Ambassador status and loyalty and informed me I'd been upgraded to the Penthouse Suite. I'd actually been pre-upgraded almost a week in advance, as I'd seen the upgrade on my app.
Room
The Penthouse Suite is on the 37th floor. It's a pretty nice room for a Four Points!
Easter was approaching, I guess. Hilarious!
The air con worked wonders:
I got a little nervous when I saw the ear plugs, but I never heard much noise at all.
The room was very comfortable. The bathroom was on the small side, though.
Service
The service was quite nice. They brought up extra water and a corkscrew for me (for the bottle of wine amenity). They handled a few matters for my client rooms.
Location
While I'm not a fan of Midtown, this hotel is relatively easy to get in and out without a whole lot of hassle.
Overall
I really like this hotel. I always am happy to return when traveling with my business groups.

For @SkiAdcock, the breakfast benefit is a full hot breakfast buffet in the ground floor back bistro area; normally $20, it is free for Plats and above.
This Four Points and the smaller one in Chelsea may be my favorite “less expensive”/ work hotels in the NYC Marriott portfolio (though at a total $344 per night, this isn’t exactly inexpensive!). I find the Four Points to be better in every way than the Courtyards, and they also are smaller and less hectic than the bigger full service options. The Ambassador recognition is also vastly superior, as I’m always upgraded, almost always to one of the very few suites. It helps that I do bring groups to the hotels, but I do that for a lot of hotels and don’t always get treated so well in NYC.
