Have No Worries - user review Crowne Plaza had three major things for me: worth the price, great location for tourists, and safe. A hotel summer promotion put the three of us in a very spacious two double bed room for $159 a night. You get what you pay for: The room was huge and clean. Also, have no safety fears.The location is ... brooklyn.citysearch.com
Stay Here - user review I had stayed at the Crowne Plaza in the past, but made the mistake of trying a smaller boutique hotel in Gramercy Park for my most recent visit.

Perfect hotel on a budget - user review We just got back from a trip to NYC where we stayed in the Crowne Plaza United Nations. It was a great experience.
