Timing

When to go.

Live · you're in July
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.

Choose milder-weather periods if your stay is focused on walking Central Park, Fifth Avenue and nearby cultural sites from the hotel.
Winter can still work well for theater, museums, shopping and business trips because Broadway, MoMA, Fifth Avenue and major subway lines are close by.
For meeting-heavy or corporate stays, the Midtown location and on-site meeting rooms are useful year-round.
If you want quieter in-room time, consider requesting an upper-floor room, as the hotel is in a busy Midtown shopping and business district.
The fine print
  • · A club or executive lounge is not documented in the provided public materials.
