Yotel New York Times Square

About Yotel New York Times Square

Yotel New York Times Square suits travelers who want a west-side base within easy reach of Midtown. The address on Tenth Avenue in Chelsea puts the Theater District, Penn Station and the Hudson River waterfront within a walk or a short ride. Couples book it for evening shows, business travelers for the Midtown offices nearby, and families for the family rooms and the 24-hour front desk. Late arrivals find someone at the desk at any hour, which matters if a flight lands after midnight.

The hotel is a 4-star property with a practical, city-hotel character: a place to sleep and work close to Midtown rather than a destination in itself. The booking supplier's guest score is 3.9 out of 5 from 9031 reviews, a solid score for a large, well-used hotel. Confirm the bed type and room layout when you book. Ask the property about arrival times and any extras the stay depends on before you commit.

The setting

Yotel New York Times Square stands at 570 Tenth Avenue, on the west side of Midtown in Chelsea. The block sits between the Theater District and the Hudson River waterfront, where the High Line runs toward Hudson Yards. Times Square is about 0.6 miles (0.9 km) in a straight line, Penn Station about 0.6 miles (1 km), Grand Central Terminal about 1.1 miles (1.7 km) and Central Park at Fifth Avenue and 59th Street about 1.2 miles (2 km). The 9/11 Memorial is about 3.4 miles (5.5 km) south, and the nearest observation decks about 1.1 miles (1.7 km) away.

Location and neighborhood

Chelsea and Hudson Yards suit travelers who plan a day around eating. The district runs along the West Side between roughly 14th and 34th Streets, with the glass towers of Hudson Yards at its northern edge and older brick blocks and gallery buildings to the south. Food is the organizing principle: the market halls under the old elevated rail line, bakeries and small kitchens on the side streets, and a steady supply of evening rooms within walking distance. Yotel New York Times Square sits in the middle of that, close enough to walk to dinner and back.

The evenings here run in two directions. North takes you toward the Theater District and the Broadway houses around Times Square, where curtains usually fall at 7 or 8 pm depending on the show, so check the schedule before booking seats. South and west, the choices are smaller: gallery openings that spill onto the sidewalk, low-lit dining rooms, and the High Line walkway, which stays open into the evening in the warmer months, though hours change with the season and the park's operator sets them.

Getting there and around

Most arrivals come through the airports. From Yotel New York Times Square, JFK is around 14 miles (22.6 km) and the trip is about 45 to 75 minutes from Midtown depending on traffic and connections; Newark works the same way, and LaGuardia is the closest by road. Penn Station and the Port Authority Bus Terminal are a short walk away, around 1.1 miles (1.7 km), and the district center is around 0.6 miles (0.9 km) from the door. The subway runs 24 hours; tap a contactless card or phone at the turnstile. Check current service with the MTA before a late trip.

Nearby sights and food

The High Line is the natural first stop, an elevated park on a former freight rail line that runs from Gansevoort Street to West 34th Street at Hudson Yards, open to all. Hudson Yards and the Vessel stand at the northern end, the Intrepid Museum occupies a pier further up the Hudson, and Little Island and Hudson River Park give you the waterfront. Broadway and the Theater District are a walk north, and several observation decks look over the island. Opening days shift with the season, so check with each operator before you go.

Eating here covers a wide range. Market halls concentrate small producers: tacos, ramen, seafood counters, cheese and cured meat stalls, pastries and good coffee. On the side streets you find Neapolitan pizza, Spanish tapas, Thai and Vietnamese kitchens, dumplings, and a run of steakhouses near the avenues. Hudson Yards adds polished dining rooms with views over the river. Book ahead for Friday and Saturday, when theatergoers and after-work crowds arrive; lunch is easier without a reservation. Many kitchens close between services, so check the hours posted at each door.

A day from Yotel New York Times Square

A day from Yotel New York Times Square. Start with coffee and a pastry on Ninth or Tenth Avenue while the streets are quiet, then walk the High Line north before the crowds build. Spend the late morning in the galleries of the West 20s, and take lunch in the market halls, where stalls are quick and portions generous. In the afternoon, cross to Hudson Yards for the Vessel and the waterfront, or shelter in a museum if the weather turns. Back near Yotel New York Times Square, rest, then eat early, because an evening curtain at the theaters usually means sitting down by 5:30. End with a late walk along the Hudson River Park esplanade.
