  New York’s Penn Station is in a great spot in central Manhattan, close to the Empire State Building, Macy’s in Herald Square, Madison Square Garden and right on the train line for a all the main New York sights and sites. It’s right under Madison Square Garden really, so very convenient, and arguably the busiest station in the Western Hemisphere.

For a city Break

• About a mile from Times Square and just four blocks up from the Empire State Building, the Archer New York offer a quirky blend of downtown-style industrial chic and uptown decorative influences. The 180 rooms are modern and there’s a cool rooftop bar called Spyglass - named for its panoramic views.

For luxury

• The Refinery Hotel is not a luxury hotel converted from an oil refinery, but a hat factory. The 197 plush rooms have high ceilings, hardwood floors, contemporary artworks and some offer views of the Empire State Building. The industrial conversion vibe is mixed with a suave contemporary flare to great effect.
• MADE Hotel is super cool, from its leafy, coffee shop/ cocktail bar lobby to its reclaimed walnut floors, brushed concrete walls and rooftop bar and terrace with show-stopping views of New York and superb food.
