Arlo Midtown

Modern comfort steps from the music scene

Arlo Midtown is a stylish, contemporary hotel in the heart of Manhattan, just a short walk from Times Square and some of NYC’s biggest concert venues. With sleek design, a cozy shared lounge, and a rooftop terrace, this 4-star stay is perfect for travelers looking to balance excitement with comfort. The hotel offers free WiFi, a well-equipped fitness center, and even free bikes for exploring the city between shows.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything—and Arlo Midtown delivers. Positioned just 11 minutes from Macy’s and close to Bryant Park, this hotel puts you within easy reach of multiple live music venues. Late-night arrivals are no problem thanks to the 24-hour front desk, and while the area is buzzing, the hotel itself maintains a quiet, relaxed atmosphere for a solid post-show wind-down. Quick access to subway lines and walkable nightlife means you won’t miss a beat.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking to explore NYC before and after a show
• Solo travelers ticking off bucket-list concerts
• Couples making a weekend escape of it
• Fans who want to crash in a calm, clean space after the encore
• Budget-conscious music lovers who want style without the splurge

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant serves American and Mediterranean fare with vegetarian, vegan, and dairy-free options—ideal for a quick bite before or after the show. An à la carte breakfast is available late enough for those who like to sleep in. While there's no 24/7 room service, the surrounding area is packed with walkable eateries open late into the night.

Nightlife Options

While Arlo Midtown doesn’t host live music on-site, you’re within walking distance of some of Midtown’s best bars, lounges, and clubs. The hotel bar offers a chill vibe and craft cocktails, perfect for pre-gaming or capping the night off.

What People Say

Guests rave about the hotel’s modern decor, helpful staff, and clean rooms. Many reviews highlight the convenience of its location, noting how easy it is to get to concerts and tourist spots. The rooftop terrace is often praised as a peaceful retreat above the Midtown buzz.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the room sizes are on the small side—fairly typical for NYC—but well-designed to maximize space. Elevators can be a little slow during peak times, so plan accordingly when heading out to a show.
