DoubleTree by Hilton New York Times Square West - New York

You’ll receive the hotel’s signature warm chocolate chip cookies when you check in at The Doubletree by Hilton Times Square West’s bustling lobby. At peak times, there may be a wait for the elevators which will take you to one of the 612 modest guest rooms spread across 35 floors. Once you’ve settled in, grab a drink at the hotel’s stunning rooftop bar and lounge or some all-American comfort food at the Tranzit Restaurant. No resort fees make this hotel the perfect choice for budget-conscious travellers looking for an affordable yet comfortable stay.

The Manhattan hotel sits within easy reach of New York City’s iconic landmarks. The Empire State Building, Macy’s, Hudson Yards, Bryant Park and other must-see attractions are all within walking distance. The hotel benefits from good transport links nearby, including the adjacent Port Authority Bus Terminal and 42nd street subway station where you can travel to Manhattan's best spots in just a few minutes. Take the E line to Jamaica station or the A line to Howard Beach to connect with the AirTrain to John F Kennedy International Airport.

Cosy, contemporary rooms are on the smaller side and feature one king-size bed or two double beds. Space is cleverly used but limited, rooms are furnished with a compact wardrobe and drawers, 40-inch HD TV, a desk, complimentary Wi-Fi and a coffee machine. You can upgrade for a higher floor and city views. The hotel lies in one of the busiest areas of the city, so you may hear some traffic and pedestrian noise, but all rooms are kitted-out with blackout curtains to help you rest in the city that never sleeps.
