The Pearl Hotel New York

The Pearl Hotel New York

Step out of The Pearl Hotel New York and the Theater District is already at the door; the hotel sits at 233 West 49th Street, close enough to walk to Times Square, Rockefeller Center and the Ambassador Theatre. Inside, 94 rooms are spread across 14 floors, and several, including the Deluxe King, Superior Queen and Deluxe Double, open onto private balconies, rare among Midtown hotels this close to Broadway. Rooms come with bathrobes, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi, and the hotel runs a bar, a restaurant serving breakfast, a small gym, and a massage room for anyone who'd rather stay in for an evening. There's a conference hall and event facilities for business stays, a Family room option for those travelling with children, and a staff that works in English and Spanish. Check-in starts at 4pm, checkout is by noon, and a 200 dollar deposit is taken by bank transfer on arrival. Parking costs 45 dollars a day, though the subway and half of Midtown are close enough on foot that a car is rarely needed. This suits someone who wants to walk into Broadway rather than commute to it, and who'd trade extra space for a private balcony. It won't suit anyone chasing a swimming pool or a quiet residential street. The Pearl doesn't compete on scale. It simply sits closer to the stage than almost anywhere else in Midtown. The Pearl Hotel New York puts 94 rooms across 14 floors in the Theater District, an easy walk to Times Square and Rockefeller Center. Some rooms open onto private balconies, unusual for Midtown. It suits guests who want Broadway at the door, not those after a pool or quiet streets.
