Residence Inn by Marriott New York Manhattan/Times Square

Residence Inn by Marriott New York Manhattan/Times Square Overview

First Impressions

Walking into the Residence Inn by Marriott New York Manhattan/Times Square, you immediately notice this isn’t your typical cramped Manhattan hotel room situation. The lobby feels surprisingly spacious for Midtown, and there’s this calm, residential vibe that’s honestly a relief after dealing with the chaos outside. I mean, you’re literally steps from Times Square, but somehow they’ve managed to create this four-star oasis that doesn’t feel like you’re sleeping inside a tourist trap. The staff actually seems to know what they’re doing too — which, let’s be honest, isn’t always a given in this part of town.

Location & Neighborhood

You know what’s brilliant about 1033 Avenue of the Americas? You’re close enough to everything that matters, but just far enough from the absolute madness of the main Times Square pedestrian areas. Bryant Park is literally a few blocks away — perfect for morning coffee or an evening stroll when you need to decompress. The subway access is fantastic; you’ve got multiple lines within easy walking distance, which means getting anywhere in the city is actually doable. Couples seem to absolutely love this spot (they rate the location 9.6, which honestly makes sense), probably because you can walk to dinner in Hell’s Kitchen or catch a Broadway show without dealing with complicated transportation.

The Suites

Here’s where this place really shines — these aren’t just hotel rooms, they’re proper suites with separate living areas and full kitchens. The kitchens actually work too, with full-size appliances and everything you need if you want to skip the $30 room service sandwich. The living room setup means you can spread out, work on your laptop without sitting on the bed, or just have space to breathe after a long day of sightseeing. The bedrooms are separate, which is clutch if you’re traveling with family or if one person wants to stay up watching TV while the other sleeps.

Breakfast & Amenities

The breakfast buffet is surprisingly solid for a Marriott property — I mean, it’s not going to blow your mind, but it’s way better than grabbing a $15 bagel from some random deli. They’ve got hot options, fresh fruit, decent coffee (though honestly, you’re in New York, so venture out for the good stuff). Having private parking available is almost unheard of in this part of Manhattan, and while it’s probably not cheap, just knowing it exists is reassuring if you’re driving in. The fitness center is small but functional, and there’s a 24-hour market in the lobby for those late-night snack emergencies.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets the Residence Inn apart is that it feels like you’re staying in a temporary apartment rather than just passing through a hotel room. The extra space makes such a difference when you’re in the city for more than a night or two — you can actually unpack, cook breakfast if you want, and have somewhere to relax that isn’t your bed. The location score of 9.6 isn’t just marketing fluff; you really can walk to most major attractions, great restaurants, and multiple subway lines without the headache of staying right in the thick of Times Square itself. It’s that sweet spot of accessibility without the overwhelming tourist crush.

  Really great workers! First time in New York and they were really helpful. Also, breakfast was exactly what we needed! Comfortable beds and not too noise vs other hotels closer to Times Square. During Christmas time is right next to the Bryans Park winter market.
