Across reviews, The Central Park North is praised for its budget-friendly value, very convenient location near Central Park and subway lines, and generally clean rooms, but it operates more like a simple walk-up guesthouse with shared bathrooms.
Rooms are small to adequate and often include a fridge, microwave, or basic kitchen setup; noise from stairs, doors, or other guests can be an issue. Service feedback is mixed—many find staff friendly and helpful, while others report poor communication, limited after-hours support, and slow responses. Some guests note safety concerns and grittier blocks nearby, though many appreciate the quiet street and easy transit. Expect a no-frills base suited to budget-minded travelers.

This was a relatively good value place. Room was small but serviceable, coffee machine in the room is appreciated, as well as microwave and minifridge. It is a walk up, I was on the 4th floor, better to travel light (you can't fit a lot of stuff in the room anyway). Easy access to the subway, great location if you'll be around the Theater District and/or Central Park. No fuss entry and exit to the building, pretty quiet neighborhood.

The room was clean, but the bathrooms had no running hot water. Despite our request for a lower-level room, we were not informed that the hotel has no elevator. Upon arrival, we were forced to climb four flights of stairs to reach our room—numbers starting from 40s. Such a climb is impossible for older individuals or those recovering from surgery at the nearby Mount Sinai Hospital and looking for a nearby room to recuperate at this CPN Hotel—137 West, on 111th Street, NY 10026. Surprisingly, despite being advertised as a hotel (with four levels), the building had no elevators, which was inconvenient and seems a potential building code violation in New York. Each of the four levels had only one bathroom and one restroom shared among all guests. The rooms are tiny and unsafe, which is understandable for a building constructed 130 years ago (as we were told). While these rooms may suffice for young travelers for a night in Manhattan’s Upper Side at around $160, they are unsuitable for older people or those needing a place to recover after surgery at the nearby Mount Sinai Hospital before they go home.

This is a good place to stay if you are visiting on a budget. The room was very clean and spacious and the staff were excellent. We were allowed to check in early and were offered a place to temporarily store our luggage after check out. The bathroom and shower are small and shared with the other guest, however, they were always available during my stay. The surrounding area is relatively quiet but I would still recommend wearing earplugs to sleep since the wooden floors and guests conversations are audible from the room.

My stay was decent. My room was clean and convenient. It’s a block away from Central Park and lots of museums and places to shop and eat. The only things I didn’t like were the super squeaky staircases and the bathroom sink and bathtub wouldn’t drain properly, so there were instances where I was simply brushing my teeth and washing my face, and the sink almost ran over. Other than that, the space was accommodating and good for a quick stay in the city if you know you’ll be out and about for much of the time.

Sharing a bathroom was more annoying than I expected since I had to put on shoes and lock my door to walk down hallway just to pee in the middle of the night and unfortunately other guests left their hair in the shower drain before I used it every morning and the entire hotel including all bathrooms and sinks on all floors was out of order intermittently for over thirty minutes at a time on one day. But overall very clean and a good deal for the low price.

The neighborhood is a bit dodgy, although I had no troubles. The room was quite well supplied for an inexpensive room, with a microwave, TV, fridge, safe, coffee maker, towels, coffee, plate, and utensils, as well as an in-window air conditioner. Aside from the neighborhood, an excellent value. Bathroom and shower room are shared among four rooms on a floor, but I never had to wait to use one of them.

This place is great. We are a family of four adults. We stayed in the family room. Plenty of space. Beds comfortable enough. There’s a fridge and microwave in the room. We were dreading the bathroom sharing but it worked out absolutely fine. Some of the showers could have been better though. One morning I struggled to get one of them to heat up. Reception staff are very nice and helpful. The area feels unsafe in places, but we survived! In fact we found a wonderful cafe called Claire’s just a 5min walk away - fantastic breakfasts. Also Central Park is so close! All in all I’d recommend this hotel.

It was a shared bathroom and there was no indication of that until after I booked it. I was sorely disappointed. However, once I got there I felt better. The bathroom was clean and there usually wasn't someone in there when I needed to use it. The street is super cute and close to a subway entrance, so that was convenient. The room itself was small and a little warm, but it was very nice with amenities like a coffee maker, kettle, hotplate, and anything you might need. Other than the occasional siren or engine revving in the road outside and hard mattress (which I dont particularly mind), it was a very, very nice stay.

I didn’t come to NYC to stay in my room. However, the time I was here I had no problem. It was easy to find. Close to 2 different subway stops/subway lines(within close walking distance). This is a good location close to Central Park. There was a wall unit AC and kept the room nice and cool when it was in the mid 90’s. There was a mini fridge and a microwave for convenience as well.

My room had AC, which many reviews I had read said they did not, so that was a nice surprise. The staff was friendly and the room was perfectly suitable and clean. There were enough bathrooms that I did not have to wait for other guests to finish up given the shared bathroom situation. Check in and out was easy. It was the quietest hotel in NYC that I’ve ever stayed in. I would definitely stay here again.

Staff was great, super helpful and accommodating. Don't stay here expecting a Marriott hotel experience. It's an old building with small rooms and a distinctive smell, and you can certainly hear others through the walls. One bathroom on each floor, some nicer than others (the one on my floor was tiny and not the nicest, although the staff do their best to keep it clean at least). Internet provided is decent but pretty slow at night when more people were using it. There's a reason why this is a cheaper option, it's like something between a hostel and a hotel. That said, if you're looking just for a bed to sleep on in a convenient area by Central Park and easily accessible by subway, this is a good option.

The property was clean and neat however, the tiny shared 4th floor shower has something to be desired and it would be nice to have at least a lamp in the room. More important, I did not have any idea that it would be so challenging to check in after the 3-6 o'clock check in time. It took me 8 emails/phone calls to get the instructions for the key code and a late check-in when I asked for them as soon as I booked the hotel. I also had no idea that my room would be on the 4th floor. At 70 years old, it matters where the room is located. Why not put that up front in the description ? I was exhausted from travelling across the continent when I arrived and not ready for 4 steep flights of stairs beginning with the stone stairs to get into the front door.

The property was great! The staff and customer service needs to be developed. I was calling and calling 3 days prior to my stay and no one answered. I wanted to do late check in and in their email with the lodging information to me. They didn’t provide a valid email. Once I arrived. There was staff just sitting there while the phoe rang. I left multiple voicemails and till this day, I have yet to receive a call back. If you want to do late check in and skip having to go check in right after landing, I do not recommend this place.

The receptionist was extremely rude during our check-in. In my reservation it stated that I booked a double bed room. However, I just had a full side bed. When I was down to the reception to ask for clarification, the receptionist asked me with a rude attitude if I had read what I have booked? I don’t appreciate that type of answer. This type of low skill customer services staff should not be in charge of a hotel check-in duty.

The staff was fantastic and friendly and housekeeping was wonderful. Always came back from a day out to a beautiful clean room, and the whole building smells fresh. Subway access was really close 3 minute walk and central park less then 5 minutes. I definitely enjoyed my stay

Location
Very close to Central Park and multiple subway lines, making it easy to get around. Some guests felt the surrounding blocks were gritty or less comfortable at night.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Central Park North. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the hotel was perfectly located - close enough to everything with a 20 minute metro ride at most. Would definitely stay again next time we visit NYC.

I didn’t come to NYC to stay in my room. However, the time I was here I had no problem. It was easy to find. Close to 2 different subway stops/subway lines(within close walking distance). This is a good location close to Central Park. There was a wall unit AC and kept the room nice and cool when it was in the mid 90’s. There was a mini fridge and a microwave for convenience as well.

This stay was just what we needed for the right price. The staff was friendly, and the property was well-maintained, with some old Harlem charm. The amenities were basic, but did the trick in a pinch. The location is good, as you are a block from Central Park and the subway, and there is a decent amount of restaurants and coffee shops in a 10 minute walk radius.

As others have mentioned -- this is a darling historical property, quiet and secure with just enough comforts to be a great value, but the area around the nearest subway station is somewhat fraught.

I felt decently safe during the day, but at night, I would not ever go out alone, or with children. A few blocks in the wrong direction would be a mistake lots of drugs and prostitution. But the actual house was adorable. The staff was great and you were two blocks from Central Park. There is a subway one block to your left and three blocks to your right so very easy transportation.

This was an older building converted into a hotel. It's about a two minute walk to the nearest subway station, getting around Manhattan was a breeze. The north entrance into central park is just beyond, leading to several enjoyable walks around the park. The block around the hotel wasn't super busy and felt quiet and laid back. It was very hot when we visited, so a water/ice station would've been nice.

Great place to stay for the price, near by the Subway & a great breakfast spot, Claire's. Bring earplugs...there are stairs near all rooms & street noise.

The hotel gives you the feeling of being in a classic NY apartment. The best part of this place is how close it is to Central Park and a subway station. There are several options for dining where you can walk from the hotel.

This place is great. We are a family of four adults. We stayed in the family room. Plenty of space. Beds comfortable enough. There’s a fridge and microwave in the room. We were dreading the bathroom sharing but it worked out absolutely fine. Some of the showers could have been better though. One morning I struggled to get one of them to heat up. Reception staff are very nice and helpful. The area feels unsafe in places, but we survived! In fact we found a wonderful cafe called Claire’s just a 5min walk away - fantastic breakfasts. Also Central Park is so close! All in all I’d recommend this hotel.

My stay was decent. My room was clean and convenient. It’s a block away from Central Park and lots of museums and places to shop and eat. The only things I didn’t like were the super squeaky staircases and the bathroom sink and bathtub wouldn’t drain properly, so there were instances where I was simply brushing my teeth and washing my face, and the sink almost ran over. Other than that, the space was accommodating and good for a quick stay in the city if you know you’ll be out and about for much of the time.
