We selected the Wellington Hotel on 7th Ave near 55th Street because of its location ... within walking distance to Central Park, Lincoln Center, Broadway Theaters, Radio City Music Hall, many fine restaurants, St Patrick's Cathedral, Rockefeller Center, Fifth Ave shopping .... AND... most of the subway lines. We asked for a 'quite' room on one of the upper level floors and were given a nice room on the 20th floor. The computers / internet located in the lobby costs a nominal amount :-) We will stay there again. We travel light (carry-on) and took the E train to JKF ... very easy, cheap ($7), and fast.
