Frommer's Review

The beauty of the Muse is that it is a Times Square hotel that feels like it's miles away, an inspired oasis in the bustle and noise that is Times Square. After a renovation in 2007, Kimpton Hotels has taken over its management, adding a more stylish, environmentally conscious look and feel. All the rooms are good sized, with feather beds and custom linens. There was a Muse statue in my room, but I'm not sure if it inspired me to do anything but get a good night's sleep. And for that I can't complain. The bathrooms are sumptuous and well outfitted. Service is solid and anticipatory. Like other Kimpton hotels, the Muse offers a complimentary wine reception in the lobby each afternoon.

Facilities:
Restaurant; concierge; good fitness room; room service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
