Dónde Alojarse en Nueva York

A sanctuary of calm above the Fifth Avenue crowds. Sprawling suites with fireplaces, a three-story spa, and a Japanese-inflected restaurant that alone justifies the trip. The pinnacle of Manhattan luxury.

• Ultra Lujo
• Spa seekers
• Special occasions

A literary-chic boutique tucked into the heart of the Village. Intimate rooms with brass fixtures, an espresso bar that doubles as a scene, and a location that puts you steps from Washington Square Park.

• Parejas
• Amantes del Boutique
• Downtown explorers

Brooklyn's coolest hotel delivers on every front — rooftop bar with Manhattan skyline views, a ground-floor taqueria that draws locals, and rooms that nail the industrial-meets-cozy aesthetic. The neighbourhood location means you're in the thick of Williamsburg's best restaurants and vintage shops.

• Brooklyn
• Bar en la Azotea
• Hip neighbourhood

Eco-luxury with genuinely spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline and Brooklyn Bridge. The rooftop pool is one of the best in the city, the sustainability credentials are real (not greenwashing), and DUMBO puts you walkable to Brooklyn Bridge Park and the waterfront.

• Brooklyn Bridge views
• Eco-luxury
• Rooftop pool

A restored 1883 landmark with a soaring nine-story Victorian atrium that stops you in your tracks. Tom Colicchio's restaurant on the ground floor is legitimately excellent, and the Financial District location — once considered a drawback — now means peaceful weekends and easy access to the Brooklyn Bridge and Seaport District.

• Historic architecture
• Fine dining
• Downtown

Straddling the High Line like a concrete periscope over the Hudson, The Standard is still one of Manhattan's most photogenic hoteles. Floor-to-ceiling windows in every room, Le Bain rooftop bar, and a Meatpacking location that puts you at the doorstep of Chelsea Market and Whitney Museum.

• Vida Nocturna
• Hudson views
• Design hotel

Daniel Humm's restaurant downstairs anchors one of Manhattan's most reliably excellent hotel experiences. The library lounge is a masterclass in atmosphere, rooms mix Parisian elegance with New York edge, and the NoMad neighbourhood has matured into one of the city's best dining corridors.

• Foodies
• Boutique luxury
• Midtown access

Robert De Niro's TriBeCa hotel feels like a private residence rather than a commercial property. No two rooms are alike, the Shibui Spa features a 250-year-old Japanese farmhouse reassembled in the basement, and the cobblestone-street location is genuinely one of the quietest in Lower Manhattan.

• Celebrity-owned
• Unique spa
• Lujo Discreto

The best budget option in Midtown that doesn't feel like a compromise. Rooms are genuinely small — this is a pod concept — but cleverly designed with custom built-ins, and the rooftop bar has views you'd expect at four times the price. Walking distance to Rockefeller Center and Central Park.

• Económico
• Midtown location
• Viajeros Solitarios

Jacques Grange-designed interiors, Jean-Georges restaurant on the ground floor, and a Madison Avenue address that puts you steps from the Met and Central Park. The Mark is the Upper East Side's definitive luxury hotel — the kind of place where the pedicab to Central Park is complimentary and the hot dog cart outside is curated.

• Ultra Lujo
• Museum Mile
• Central Park

If you must stay near Times Square — and for first-timers or Broadway fans, there are good reasons to — the Moxy handles it better than anything else in the area. The rooftop bar is genuinely fun, rooms are compact but well-designed, and the lobby bar doubles as a co-working space. Best value in the Theatre District.

• Times Square
• Broadway
• Buena Relación Calidad-Precio

A handsome brownstone conversion on a quiet West Village block with surprisingly spacious rooms for the neighbourhood. The lobby lounge serves proper cocktails, and you're a three-minute walk from the best stretch of Bleecker Street. Excellent value for a location that most hoteles charge double.
