The Radisson Lexington Hotel is in an excellent location right on the corner of Lexington Ave. and 48th St. It's about a ten-minute walk from here to Rockefeller Center. It's also about five minutes away from Park and Madison Avenues. There is a subway stop about two minutes away as well.
The hotel is very nice and has a helpful staff. It is very popular with European and Japanese tourists.
Unique Qualities: The Radisson Lexington has a really great sushi bar in the lobby as well as a Chinese restaurant and a Starbucks. It is also located within walking distance to many restaurants. It is a lot less expensive than many of its hotel neighbors, such as the Waldorf Astoria and the Intercontinental, which are located right nearby. The only complaints I have about the Radisson are that it's "climate control" system needs some updating. Our room was horribly roasting hot on both nights of our stay. I also really hated the Sleep Number Bed that was in our room. What a horrible bed! Don't pay any attention to those commercials!
