About Citadines Connect Fifth Avenue New York

The address on West 45th Street puts offices, theaters and transport within walking distance, which works well for short city breaks, first visits and business trips. Couples can walk to Times Square in the evening; families get a central point for museums and parks. Late arrivals find a 24 hour front desk. Light packers and long weekends fit the same profile.

The booking supplier gives it a guest score of 3.8 out of 5 from 1427 reviews, a solid mid-range result for a central address. Expect a straightforward city hotel rather than a resort: rooms are the base, and the street and the subway do the rest. Check the total price with taxes and fees in the IMPT app.

The setting

Citadines Connect Fifth Avenue New York sits at 15 West 45th Street, a Midtown cross street a short block west of Fifth Avenue. Times Square is about 0.3 miles (0.5 km) away in a straight line and Grand Central Terminal about 0.2 miles (0.4 km), so both are easy walks. Central Park at Fifth Avenue and 59th Street is about 0.7 miles (1.1 km) north. Penn Station is about 0.8 miles (1.3 km), and the 9/11 Memorial about 3.5 miles (5.7 km) south. Expect office towers, theaters and steady foot traffic.

Location and neighborhood

Evenings in Midtown start early. Broadway curtains usually rise at 7 or 8 pm, so tables around the Theater District fill from about 5 pm; check the show for the exact time. Book ahead within a short walk of Times Square on a performance night. Away from the theater blocks the pace is calmer: Bryant Park at dusk, the concourse at Rockefeller Center, Fifth Avenue windows lit after dark. Weeknights and weekends feel different here. Tuesday through Thursday brings the office crowd, while Friday and Saturday belong to visitors and to anyone who has booked a show.

The food map of Midtown runs on categories as much as cuisines. Steakhouses and old-line diners sit near the Theater District; sushi bars, ramen shops and small Japanese counters thread the side streets; trattorias and wine bars fill the blocks toward Fifth Avenue. Quick meals are easy: pizza by the slice, food halls, sandwich counters. The Garment District north of 34th Street keeps a lunchtime trade and quieter tables after dark. Reservations matter for dinner on show nights, and walk-in counters are simpler at lunch. Within a few blocks of Citadines Connect Fifth Avenue New York, Korean, Thai, Indian and Italian kitchens all appear.

Getting there and around

The grid does most of the work. Numbered streets run east to west and avenues run north to south, with Fifth Avenue dividing East from West addresses, so a cross-town walk is short and a north-south one is longer than it looks on a map. The subway runs 24 hours: tap a contactless card or phone at the turnstile, and check the Metropolitan Transportation Authority for planned service changes. Distances are compact: the district center is around 0.3 miles (0.5 km) from Citadines Connect Fifth Avenue New York, Penn Station and Grand Central Terminal around 0.2 miles (0.4 km), the airports around 13 miles (21.3 km) depending on route and traffic.

Nearby sights and food

Sights cluster within a short walk or one or two subway stops. The Theater District packs about 40 Broadway houses into the blocks around Times Square, and evening curtains are typically at 7 or 8 pm, so check the show. The Museum of Modern Art sits on West 53rd Street. Observation decks at Rockefeller Center, beside Grand Central Terminal and at Hudson Yards give three distinct views. Grand Central's concourse and ceiling reward a look even without a train to catch. West of the district, the Intrepid Museum occupies a Hudson pier, and Hudson Yards holds the Vessel.

For a food-led evening, choices divide by mood. A steakhouse or an old-line Italian room suits a long dinner before a curtain; small Japanese counters and wine bars suit a quick plate and a glass. Pizza by the slice, falafel carts, ramen and Thai kitchens cover the fast end, and food halls handle groups with different appetites. Dessert holds its own, from cheesecake to gelato. Delis and bakeries cover a picnic for Bryant Park. Reserve for dinner on performance nights and expect queues at peak lunch hours.

A day from Citadines Connect Fifth Avenue New York

A day from Citadines Connect Fifth Avenue New York: a morning walk east through Bryant Park before the office crowd arrives, then the Museum of Modern Art while it is quiet. Lunch on a side street north of 34th Street, or a quick counter meal if the afternoon is full. Ride an observation deck for the view, or head west to the Intrepid Museum on the Hudson. Book dinner early, around 5:30 pm, when a show is on the plan, and check the curtain time on the ticket. After the theater, Times Square stays bright and loud; the side streets north of it go quiet.
