The holiday season is over, and everyone is back in the hustle of everyday life. And let’s face it, winter in New York City can feel cold, gray, and expensive. There is a little-known way to turn a mid-winter slump into a cozy city escape. NYC Hotel Week opens doors to special rates at hotels across the city. Locals and visitors can enjoy iconic stays without paying full price. You can spend a weekend in a boutique hotel in Brooklyn or stay at a classic Fifth Avenue hotel. Either way, it is a chance to treat yourself. Here’s everything you need to know to make the most of these incredible deals.
How Does NYC Hotel Week Work?
Hotel Week in NYC runs in early January and into February. Hotels across multiple boroughs offer discounted rates at over 140 properties. The choices include historic landmarks, trendy hotels, and hotels in quiet neighborhoods. Some hotels add perks like free breakfast, late checkout, or spa credits.
Booking is simple and straightforward. Check the official Hotel Week site and browse participating hotels. Rooms sell fast, so it helps to plan early. You can visit hotels that can generally be out of your price range or stay in neighborhoods you might normally skip, and enjoy a short escape from everyday life.
Our Hotel Recommendations
Many of New York’s famous hotels participate. You can stay at The Plaza Hotel overlooking Central Park. Or enjoy the Midtown skyline from the New York Marriott Marquis in Times Square. Other classics include The Pierre, Lotte New York Palace, and New York Hilton Midtown. Each hotel has its own charm and comfort.
If you’re looking for something more modern or boutique, check out Ace Hotel Brooklyn, Wythe Hotel, or Radio Hotel in Murray Hill. These hotels are popular with travelers who enjoy a unique style and want to be away from the touristy places.
For something a bit more practical, try Tempo by Hilton Times Square, Aloft Chelsea, and Homewood Suites Midtown South. They offer modern rooms with family-friendly options.
