For business travelers, convention attendees, or travelers looking for affordable accommodation in the heart of Manhattan, the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel New York Times Square South fits the bill. With rates starting at $119 per night, visitors can count on a clean room with all the service and amenities the DoubleTree brand is known for—including those famous fresh-baked cookies.
Location

Despite its name, this DoubleTree property is approximately a 10-minute walk from the bright lights of Times Square proper. It’s located in a quieter neighborhood, the Garment District, and is just an eight-minute walk from Penn Station, making it ideal for anyone arriving in New York City via train or bus. It’s also one of the best hotels near the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center and is a solid choice for anyone in town for a convention.
Transit options abound, with multiple subway lines within walking distance:
- Three blocks to A, C, and E lines
- Four blocks to 1, 2, 3, 7, N, Q, R, and S lines
- Six blocks to B, D, F, and M lines
The DoubleTree is ideally situated to explore New York City on foot, with the following attractions within easy walking distance:
- Madison Square Garden: 6-minute walk
- Times Square: 10-minute walk
- Empire State Building: 15-minute walk
- Central Park: 20-minute subway ride
- Hell’s Kitchen’s restaurants and nightlife: About 10 blocks north
- Rockefeller Center, Radio City Music Hall, and Fifth Avenue shopping: Approximately 30 minutes on foot
The Rooms

The accommodations at this DoubleTree property are clean, modern, and bright. Room sizes range from 195- to 220- sq. feet, with configurations of 1 king bed or two double or queen beds. We stayed in a 1 King Empire State Building View room, which, as promised, featured up-close views of the Empire State Building just outside the window.
The real value lies in the thoughtful amenities. All rooms include:
- 46-inch flat-screen TV
- Adjustable desk chair and work area
- Mini-fridge
- Coffee maker
- Iron
- DoubleTree’s signature Sweet Dreams bed
- 250 thread count sheets
- Complimentary Wi-Fi
- Black-out curtains
Dining

The rooftop lounge, Vue180, offers a rare Manhattan gem—a glass-enclosed dining area and ample outdoor space—a rare find in Manhattan. This sophisticated spot serves small bites and craft cocktails alongside stunning skyline views, including prime vistas of The Empire State Building. Unlike most New York rooftop bars, Vue180 charges no cover, drawing lively crowds year-round. During winter months, cozy clear igloos transform the space into the hottest happy hour spot.
For those seeking a more traditional dining experience, the hotel’s main restaurant, Vue 525, serves breakfast and dinner just off the lobby below.
Amenities

The hotel’s standout amenities include:
- 24-hour fitness center
- Business center
- Meeting room facilities
- Free property-wide Wi-Fi
- Self-parking ($65 per day)
- Pet-friendly accommodations ($50 fee)
