Andaz 5th Avenue

About your stay

Loftlike bedrooms, complimentary minibars and a central location help make this stylish boutique feel like the Manhattan pad you wish you had. The converted 1916 building is stocked with a killer art collection — from 14-foot murals to 8-foot sculptures — and has great views, either of the New York Public Library or buzzing 42nd Street (don’t worry: The windows are extra-thick). Down in the lounge and restaurant, creative cocktails and a farm-to-table menu draw both a steady crowd of local media and fashion types and tourists who love the Andaz’s proximity to Times Square and Bryant Park.
