About the property

What makes Hilton New York Times Square worth the points.

Hilton New York Times Square is a high-rise Hilton Hotels & Resorts property at 234 West 42nd Street, placing guests directly at the crossroads of Broadway and 42nd Street. The setting is Times Square / the Theater District / Midtown West, with Broadway theaters at the doorstep and Midtown sights such as Bryant Park, Grand Central, Madison Square Garden, Rockefeller Center, and Hudson Yards within easy walking distance. The hotel’s official description emphasizes a modern facade, original works of art, and a Sky Lobby with panoramic views; Travel Weekly describes the Sky Lobby as being on the 21st floor. Third-party listings also characterize the property as a soaring tower with panoramic skyline views, making the vertical setting one of its clearest differentiators in the neighborhood. Rooms are described as large and spacious, with some offering panoramic city views. Select rooms overlook the New Year’s Eve ball drop, a particularly distinctive feature for travelers who want an iconic Times Square perspective, though those views should be booked and confirmed specifically. On-site amenities are practical rather than resort-like: the provided official information lists a fitness center, non-smoking rooms, Hilton Honors digital features, and three dining venues. Dining includes High Rise Buffet for breakfast, Long Acre Market for snacks, and 42nd And Sky for cocktails and small plates.

Timing

When to go.

Live · you're in August
Best time
May–Jun, Sep–Oct

These shoulder-season months usually offer mild, comfortable weather with lower crowds and prices than the summer and holiday peaks, while avoiding New York’s hottest, most humid period.

Avoid
Jan–Feb, Jul–Aug, Dec

January and February are the coldest winter months and commonly the cheapest but least comfortable for weather; July and August bring the hottest, most humid summer conditions; December is a peak holiday month with higher prices and heavier crowds.

From the analysis

A few more timing notes.

For New Year’s Eve, book especially early if a ball-drop view matters; only select rooms overlook the New Year’s Eve ball drop.
Broadway-focused trips work year-round because the hotel sits in the Theater District with theaters essentially at the doorstep.
Holiday periods and major Times Square events bring the area’s most intense crowds, so plan extra time for moving around 42nd Street and Broadway.
For general Midtown sightseeing, the location is convenient in any season, with Bryant Park, Grand Central, Madison Square Garden, Rockefeller Center, and Hudson Yards within easy walking distance.
The fine print
  • · Specific city, skyline, or New Year’s Eve ball-drop views are limited to select rooms and should be confirmed when booking.
  • · No pool or spa is documented in the supplied official information; the listed recreation amenity is a fitness center.
  • · The hotel sits directly in Times Square, one of Manhattan’s busiest entertainment corridors, so the location is highly convenient but not a quiet neighborhood retreat.
  • · No club or executive lounge access policy is stated in the provided official hotel information.
