The hotel

Part of the very fabric of Midtown Manhattan, this Art Deco attraction is proudly capped with the red ‘New Yorker’ sign that’s made it a landmark in the city skyline. Inside its iconic 1929 shell, this Jazz Age hotel’s held on to its heritage with Art Deco inspired rooms, while moving with the times with complimentary WiFi. Its top location, just a block from Penn Station and Madison Square Garden, means you’re well placed for attractions like Macy’s, Times Square and the Empire State Building. And it doesn’t matter what time you finish exploring, its 24-hour Tick Tock Diner will give you a taste of New York with American comfort food classics like burgers and all-day breakfasts.

Clean accommodations, convenient location and courteous staff. The food in the Italian restaurant was sub-par but even there the staff was friendly and professional as in the rest of the establishment. The Tick Tock diner offered good value.

We chose this hotel primarily because of its location, right by Penn Station , and Madison square gardens. We had upgraded to a patio room , which in NYC is pretty rare . Good to have some outside space, maybe a plant or two on the large patio would have improved its appearance?! Room comfy and clean. There is an Italian, and vault steakhouse attached, and also a great diner for all day breakfast. If you want a decent hotel at a sensible price The New Yorker is a good bet . Read less
