“This trendy Manhattan hotel puts you within striking distance of Central Park and the Rockefeller Centre.”
New York’s your oyster at the Park Central. It’s set right above the 57th Street subway stop so even though you’ve got great sights like Central Park, Carnegie Hall and the Rockefeller Centre within walking distance, hopping on the subway and seeing the rest of the city is, as New Yorkers would say, easy as pie.

Step in from the sidewalk and you’ll find a lobby that’s just the right level of cool and laid-back. Decked out with comfy-but-stylish sofas, glossy checkerboard floors and big gilt-framed pictures on the walls, it’s trendy not try-hard.

As for the bedrooms, they’re cool spaces painted in calm neutrals and kitted out with big beds, low-back chairs and flat screen TVs. Add to this, the hotel’s extra-thick walls and floors and they make cosy holiday bases that block out the New York buzz.

And even though the bright lights of New York are on your doorstep, this hotel doesn’t rest on its laurels. It comes with its own private health club, restaurant and cocktail lounge.

The Café New York restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. Kick start your day with hot Belgian waffles, refuel on juicy burgers at lunchtime and round things off with a steak in the evenings.

Your guide to New York City, American Cities

"A giant fruit, an insomniac or just plain old New York - whatever you want to call it, this city tops the world’s superleague. But be warned - one bite of the Big Apple is never enough.”

Power-walking city slickers. Speeding yellow cabs. Lattes to go. To the outsider, watching New York is like watching a movie on fast forward. Everything happens at twice the normal pace. And if it’s your first time here, expect to be shoulder-charged a few times because whilst everything else rushes by in a technicoloured blur, you’ll be rooted to the spot. Make no mistake this is a city that’s big on big attractions. Crane your neck to see the sun glinting off the elegant Art Deco Chrysler Building. Go goggle-eyed at the ginormous neon signs of Times Square. And then gasp at the extravagance of the fashion houses on Fifth Avenue and the concrete canyons of Wall Street. But one thing that most first-timers feel is something else - a weird frisson of familiarity. The reason’s simple. Manhattan’s featured in so many movies and TV series, it’s like you’ve already walked the walk on the sidewalks here. On practically every block, there’s something to knock you sideways with a dose of déjà vu. Steam gushing from manholes. Roadside popcorn carts manned by hollering vendors. And of course, the spectacular skyline as seen from those architectural movie stars - the Empire State and Statue of Liberty.

But beneath its touristy veneer, New York’s got much more going on. Take a diversion from the tourist trail south of Times Square and the crowds thin out, the streets get leafier and you’ll find the oh-so-cool neighbourhoods of SoHo, Chelsea and Greenwich Village. Here, cupcake cafes neighbour snazzy cocktail lounges and upscale boutiques boasting sky-high price tags. Or venture north to the laid-back Upper West Side. Here, tall brownstones offer flashbulb-free retreats for A-list actors, musicians and directors. Pretty much anywhere you go though, you’re guaranteed two things. Firstly, a restaurant scene that spans everything from authentic pizza houses to glittering celeb-owned gastronomic palaces. Secondly, more bars, lounges and clubs than you ever dreamed possible. Whichever way you look at it, this iconic city is the ultimate metropolis. Or to put it another way, it’s king of the hill, top of the heap, a number one. So put on your best New York drawl and start spreading the news … there just ain’t anyplace else like the Big Apple.
