New York hotels

Greenwich Village is a pleasant, leafy neighbourhood with a distinctive bohemian vibe, while Brooklyn has a range of family-friendly hotels and is buzzing with hip hangouts and eateries. Stretching east from Manhattan and New York Harbour, Long Island is another great choice for families, with plenty of opportunities for sand, sea and surf.

Chelsea is the place to stay if you’re looking for a wide range of bars, while the nearby Meatpacking District is home to some of New York’s renowned clubs. Two of the best are located at The Standard, High Line New York. Other good areas include the Lower East Side, SoHo, and Tribeca.

Times Square is a buzzing area in Midtown illuminated by the bright lights of Broadway. There, the 4-star boutique Casablanca Hotel by Library Hotel Collection takes its theme from the much-loved film and is perfect for couples, while the City Club Hotel retains the sophisticated vibe of the building’s former life as a private gentlemen’s club.

New York’s skyline is electrifying and one great way to experience it is by booking into The New Yorker A Wyndham Hotel, whose Midtown location is steps away from the Empire State Building. Alternatively, The Standard, High Line New York rises 18-storeys above Downtown Manhattan and offers sweeping views of the Hudson River.

The indoor pool at the 5-star Baccarat Hotel has a striking black and white chequered floor as well as comfortable cabanas for relaxing in, while Dream Downtown in the Meatpacking District features a glass-bottom rooftop pool that floats directly over the hotel’s lobby. For something more affordable try the McCarren Hotel & Pool in Brooklyn.
