Frommer's Review
For families, you won't find a better location -- or value. Close to Central Park and Riverside Park, the Museum of Natural History and Lincoln Center, and major subway lines, the Beacon's location is ideal. Rooms are generously sized and feature a kitchenette, a roomy closet, and a marble bathroom. Nearly all standard rooms feature two double beds, and they're plenty big enough to sleep a family on a budget. The large one- and two-bedroom suites are some of the best bargains in the city; each has two closets and a pullout sofa in the well-furnished living room. The two-bedrooms have a second bathroom, making them well outfitted enough to house a small army -- including my own. There's no room service, but a wealth of good budget dining options that deliver, along with such excellent markets as the aforementioned Fairway, make the Beacon even more of a home away from home.
