Best Hotels near The King's College

Club Quarters Hotel is all about location. Perched in Lower Manhattan, Club Quarters Hotel, World Trade Center boasts easy access to SoHo, Battery Park, Tribeca, Wall Street and the 9/11 Memorial and Museum. These accommodations cater especially to business travelers with their versatile selection of meeting rooms. Meanwhile, inside the Club Living Room, guests can congregate around a cozy fireplace, log on to the complimentary Wi-Fi or relax and read the paper while sipping a cup of coffee. Recent guests highlight the hotel's warm staff, modern facilities and easy accessibility to public transportation, but note it can be hard to get a good night sleep because of the city noise below.

Overlooking the 9/11 Memorial from its seat near ground zero in lower Manhattan, the World Center Hotel treats guests to an exceptional location for considerably low prices. The hotel is also a popular pick for business travelers, thanks to its location near the Financial District. For most visitors, it's the hotel's reasonable room rates that turn them into repeat customers, though others commend the property on its extra touches, such as complimentary high-speed internet, Gilchrist & Soames toiletries, Keurig coffe makers, free loaner iPads and free bottled water stations on every floor. But in terms of decor, this hotel is fairly nondescript, with guest rooms wearing little more than the occasional pop of blue (most guests don't mind this, however, since they spent most of their time looking out the window). You can also find fantastic views from the rooftop restaurant, the View of the World Terrace Club; previous visitors say that the food is worth tasting, though they wish there were more options to choose from. Another thing travelers said could use some improvement: the staff.

Billed as "the world's tallest Holiday Inn," the Holiday Inn Manhattan - Financial District boasts 50 floors and a prime location near numerous business, restaurants, shops, subway stops and New York City attractions like the National September 11 Memorial & Museum and Battery Park. Inside the hotel, guests have access to a 24-hour business center and a small gym, as well as the St. George Tavern, which serves classic American comfort food with a French bistro flair. Additional amenities, such as blackout shades, free internet access, coffee makers, work desks, windows that open and complimentary newspapers, are available in all of the 492 guest rooms and suites. Recent guests appreciated the property's Lower Manhattan location and its friendly staff, although some expressed dismay at the small room sizes (a common complaint for NYC accommodations) and the slow elevators. And because this property belongs to the InterContinental Hotel Group, IHG Rewards Club members can accrue or redeem points by choosing to stay here.

Recent visitors praise this Marriott outpost for its Financial District location, removed from midtown's chaos. However, others see this as a shortcoming, since taxi rides to and from midtown Manhattan can add up quickly. Still, this Marriott is a particular favorite among business travelers, thanks to its full-service business center, ample meeting space and 24-hour fitness center. Plus, this hotel boasts the casual Bill's Bar & Burger, which is known for its loaded burgers, fries and shakes. And as far as bedding down goes, you'll have access to clean, quiet accommodations, complete with crisp 300-thread-count linens, flat-screen TVs and minifridges. If you participate in the Marriott Bonvoy program, you can also rest assured that you may earn and redeem points by choosing to stay here.

Rooms in this DoubleTree branch are well-kept and modern (albeit on the smaller side according to some recent guests). Previous visitors highlight the hotel as a convenient place for business travelers thanks to the fully equipped fitness center, Antinori Restaurant and Bar and ample business facilities. But those traveling on leisure will be happy to note that the hotel sits less than a block from the subway and is within easy reach of iconic landmarks, including the Brooklyn Bridge and the National September 11 Memorial & Museum. Once you're ready to turn in for the day, retreat to your comfortable accommodations, which come furnished with mahogany dressers, spacious work desks and flat-screen TVs. Travelers consistently praise the hotel's ideal location and outstanding service, but there is one glaring drawback: Most visitors say the elevators are painfully slow. But at least there are complimentary cookies in the lobby and if you participate in the Hilton Honors rewards program, you can earn and redeem points here. You'll find this DoubleTree tucked away on Stone Street in the Financial District.

The Financial District's Hotel Eurostars Wall Street is, (surprise, surprise), a European-style boutique. Here, you'll find 53 rooms, including 14 suites, featuring simplistic decor and desirable amenities like flat-screen TVs, crisp linens and fully equipped kitchens. However, some guests complain the accommodations appear a bit tired, and would benefit from a facelift. And though many travelers did note the helpful staff, others bemoaned the minimal property amenities available. Still business travelers say the location, just steps away from Wall Street, makes this hotel a convenient home base, especially with its 24-hour business center.
