Bryant Park Hotel

This fashionable, funky and good value hotel overlooks Midtown’s delightful mini-oasis, Bryant Park, and the splendid New York Public Library, one of New York’s most beautiful buildings.

Many, generally spacious, rooms have fine, open city and Skyscraper views depending on your room type. Below the 15th floor at the back, standard rooms only see walls of adjacent buildings. Above the 15th floor, rooms have views of the Empire State. Front rooms offer park views.

A safe, even genius, pick if you want to be close to the main attractions – notably Fifth Avenue shopping, Empire State, Broadway and Times Square – yet far enough away from the dark, dirty, noisy streets that characterise much of the rest of Midtown.
