Holiday Inn Express Manhattan Midtown West By IHG

Comfort and Convenience in the Heart of Hell's Kitchen

Modern, practical, and perfectly placed, the Holiday Inn Express Manhattan Midtown West puts you right in the vibrant Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood—just a 15-minute walk from Times Square and a short stroll to major venues and attractions. With clean, comfortable rooms, free Wi-Fi, and a free daily breakfast, it’s a great base for concert-goers looking to explore NYC without sacrificing rest or value.

Each room includes a work desk and coffee maker—ideal for late-night planning or early morning recovery—and guests have access to a 24-hour business center, fitness center, and front desk. Laundry facilities are also available, which can come in handy for longer stays.

Why Concert-goers love it

Being within walking distance of major venues like the Javits Center and just a short ride to Madison Square Garden, this hotel makes show nights super convenient. The neighborhood vibe is energetic but not overwhelmingly loud, so you’ll get a decent night’s sleep post-concert. With 24-hour front desk service and easy access to late-night transit or rideshares, your post-show plans stay flexible. Plus, free Wi-Fi means you can upload those concert clips in real time.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends wanting to stay near the action without breaking the bank
• Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list tour stop
• Couples enjoying a weekend of music and Manhattan
• Fans who want a quiet, comfy place to recharge
• Budget-minded music lovers who still want quality and location

Food and Drink Options

Start your day (or recover from your night) with the free continental breakfast served daily—great for grabbing a bite before heading out. While there’s no on-site restaurant, you’ll find tons of walkable dining options nearby, from classic pubs like The Landmark Tavern to trendy Hell’s Kitchen eateries. Craving something late? Local spots stay open late, and delivery apps cover the area well.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself keeps things quiet, you’re just steps away from the lively Hell's Kitchen bar scene and a short walk to rooftop lounges, cozy speakeasies, and clubs. Whether you want to pre-game or keep the party going after the encore, you’ll have options.

What People Say

Guests love the central location, friendly staff, and solid value for a Midtown Manhattan stay. Many mention the rooms are clean and quiet, and the free breakfast is a welcome bonus. The convenience to concert venues and public transportation is a recurring highlight in reviews.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms can be on the smaller side (hey, it’s NYC), and breakfast space fills up fast during peak hours. Some guests say the elevators can be a bit slow, especially after big events. Still, these are minor trade-offs for the location and price.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a concert in NYC and want a clean, affordable place to crash that’s close to the action but calm enough to recover—Holiday Inn Express Manhattan Midtown West hits the right note.
